Curious what you did to get on the permaflag list?

Basically that auto message that came up with the abusereports flags started to really get to me. You know the one?

"This person is trash, and I'll flag anyone who talks to this account" Or words to that effect.

I just thought, you know what? That's the kind of schoolyard bullying behaviour that really gets on my nerves. Who the hell is he to dictate who I can and can't talk to? Sure, some of the people on that list probably deserve to be on it, but let me make up my own mind as to whether to talk to them.

Anyway, I did a post called Steem Debates: Do Bullies Prosper On Steemit? Obviously he worked out it was about him, and rather than try and reply and justify himself, he simply flagged the post, and that was that.

The thing is, I think he's taken off that message now. So he realises how nasty and petty trying to ostracise people by threatening anyone who talks to them is. However he still does it, he just doesn't advertise it any more. He flags people for talking to me or anyone else who has crossed him.

Anyway, the more he bullies, the more I'll continue to call him out, I've had enough, he's just the sort of guy at school I used to have to fight all the time. I didn't back down then, and I won't now.

I've tagged it the #butthurtwars, because I traced back his douchebaggery back to the war he lost with Haejin. He was so saddened by the fact he couldn't "crush" him, he decided to target various minnows to satisfy his ego.

Lastly I'll say, there are plenty people on that list who are spammers and abusers, however there are plenty people like me who simply disagree with his point of view and for that he flags.

Sorry to go on, but you did ask! :-)

Back to the subject: I'm going to dip back into Steemmonsters one of these days! I've still got a free card stuck to my fridge all the way back from Steemfest 3...

EDIT: If you want to help in the #butthurtwars, I'd appreciate if you could spread a percentage of your SP onto some or all of my comments to help combat the flags. If not, no drama. I'm having fun visiting the barons asking them for help in the #butthurtwars
