Jesus Christ #newsteem what's with the threats.

First it was the @mmmmmm.... guy and now this @themilkymark. Why would I stay around if any work I do to create and curate content is just knocked down by bullys.

Have these guys watched The Godfather too many times?

This guys has sent out a lot of these https://steempeak.com/@themilkymark/transfers :

And there has been just about as many people responding for them to "get bent", but being much less diplomatic.

It is exactly stuff like this that makes #steem unattractive to new users. Why should I continue to stack into a blockchain that I am just going to be harassed on choices that I make. I don't mean if people disagree with something I write about and I get a downvote, a true curation downvote, but those that systematically punish regardless of the content that I'm producing.

Why shouldn't I just remove all my witness votes, power down and put this STEEM into BTC and then go back to wordpress?

Come on people, why should I stay? I can make money on a blog simply with google adwords. It wouldn't be much, but it would be more than I make here. I might even have a chance at getting indexed by a search engine rather than having the search engine juice being spread among all the dApps out there.
