There is no "rightly" in calling someone a dick. That is literally a punch below the belt. ^^
@surfermarly you know I love you! Dear @themarkymark, I respect you! At the moment both of you are losing their respect. We all are humans.
Take a look on your post @themarkymark... how would you feel about being exposed in this way in a Trending-post like you did it with her?
Both of you: read your posts and comments and ask yourself, if you want to be treated that way yourself.
THEN come together again for talking.
We are a community. There is no right or wrong. Noone is "righter" than someone else. And Trending-posts don´t reflect the opinions of most of the users of Steemit. In fact I believe most of the "avarage users" are shitting their pants, when they think about giving their opinion on a controversial Trending-post.
Make peace!
Maybe you could find a solution for the topic then.
I call it as I see it. We are all grown-ups here, if calling someone a dick for being a jerk is too much, then I think this might be too grown-up for some people.
I mean, this is totally mature.
I would think you would have three times the post as me when you have been here three times longer and comment non-stop. I guess that's an important metric so I'll try to contain my jealousy.
I'm trying to stop the abuse, something I see very few doing and I got to deal with this every day.
It's what I tried to say!! Stop fighting!!! Again you expose her. You already mentioned that she had said this. What's the point? The point is you are pissed.
But somewhere underneath this there are topics that need to be discussed in a grown-up way. I also spoke to @surfermarly in this comment by the way. I think both of you need to calm down. (What will be even more difficult with exposing her again). Please stop. Maybe both of you are a bit tired. And maybe kids aren't little grown-ups, but grown-ups are little kids? I act like one often enough myself.
He doesn' expose me, he's exposing himself. I don't care so you shouldn't either :-) Move one! Have fun! :-*
Posting private conversations definetely is wrong. Posting your comment was wrong. Calling you a dick was wrong. You didn't do anything like that with him. I guess you haven't heard a "Sorry" yet?
I move on. But I am not sure anymore that Steemit is a place where I can have fun. I am not even sure anymore, if it's a place worth fighting for.
Maybe I will look for a community that hasn't got a Trending Page telling everybody how easy becoming rich is. You just have to create good content. Or bots. Or circle-vote-systems.
Hey!!! Idea!!! A platform where voting-bots can vote for the best voting-bot!!! That would be a great new application!
Investors can give them bot-power. Those with the most bot-power have the votes with the highest weights. Investors also are allowed to create their own bots. So you can never be sure, what's bot and what's investor. This will lead to circle-vote-systems with several bots around one or more investors and bots being investors. The Trending Page of this new application called "Botit" will be full with this. Small bots will be almost invisible. But the big bots won't care. They will tell the small bots "the system is fair, because it's open and free. You just have to be smarter than the big bots/investors. Just try to grow over years and reinvest everything you earn into bot-power. Then maybe you have a chance to be on Trending some day too!"
It's not been a conversation. It's been randomly picked snippets out of a conversation with no coherence :-)
You will love the community feature (to come in Q2 I think), it's made for you!
Makes him look even worse. :-(
Yeah maybe this will be a good one and provide more fairness and equality to the platform.
