The Daily Meme #316!
I know flags are making quite a splash in the pool lately, but that doesn't slow the endless flow of the spammers and plagiarizers.
Every day they show up to work the pool for all that they can take.
It is an inevitable drip from the faucet.
They would consume the entirety of the value we hold collectively here, if we let them.
It's just what folks do that care more about themselves than they do building something great with others.
F' us, they say, I got mine and screw anybody else.
This is where you come in, dear reader, take the time to follow a downvote trial today.
With you riding shotgun on the flaggots you can speak up when they get out of line.
If you don't participate, then don't come in after the fact when somebody has been dealt with.
Either you have to follow along with the conversations or you may go off without knowing the full story.
Do you know if the flags being thrown are justified, or not?
Not if you don't concern yourself with the issue at all, ya don't.

These are public rooms managed by private people for the benefit of everybody using this blockchain.
What they do is voluntary, but openly public.
Don't abuse their willingness to work for the collective for what little we give them, eh?
Without them, none of this exists.
When you go through these rooms catching up on 'the community', be sure to look for the detective, and add your detective, too!
I love your memes. I mean, not "love" love. I guess, maybe appreciate them? They make me laugh.
You can love stuff its okay buddy :p
Yes, the age of pisces is over, aquarians love.
I love that you have been entertained, I am here to serve as many lol's as I can get.
Thank you.
I've learned to leave that stuff up to the big boys or girls to fight. There's no one going to protect the lower status ones when the ones the big boys/girls are fighting get flagged to death by those they are fighting. That's just one issue with it all. The other issue is when you see some get away with it while others are flagged or the worse one yet was the one where letting them get away with it was seen as going to be beneficial to the chain. That's the exact replica of there's rules for thee but not for me. As one editorial cartoonist depicted the other day...
I don't work as hard as I do on some of my post just to have someone whose mad at someone else for cheating to come along and strike my shit down. I find it's just easier to do what it is I do and be happy about it. I fully understand what's going on, some things I read others I don't bother because it's all about the same and the same as it ever was.
If you get retalitatory flags, join this discord: https://discord.gg/TXPkMRXYuG
They will help you, if they find your situation justified to help.
You got to decide for you if you want to fulfill the other side of curation, just remember if nobody had stepped up to be the heavy, the bots would have sucked us dry by now.
Condemnation of low effort posts and dumping everything the community gives to you is a community responsibility.
You don't have to adult, but it would be nice, iyam.
More voices pushing back on the 'bad' flags is needed to stop the madness, eh?
I haven't thought of following a downvote trail though. Thanks for the eye opener though
