Hi @mcgonagall
Yes it is a problem the only real solution is to do what you are and raise public awareness. The other alternative is post of Steem !
Most of the big time abusers came here and if you wont kowtow to them they will most likely never leave alone. I have been through it with themarkymark and he is more than a little deranged.
See my post if you like @joe.public/greetings-good-hive-community
If you dont mind i would like to make another post on tomorrow and highlight what is going on for you and a few others ?
