To start off ill say i have no particular side in this argument but it seems certain whales are targeting users and acting maliciously. To prevent abuse there needs to be some kind of talk by the community. My opinion is that flags are a good idea but using them to target people because you don't like them is a bit of an issue. We need long term solutions and quick.
Current ideas that are floating around:
Anti Flag Guild
- To go around and to counteract abusive flags.
Visual Flag feed of likely abusers.
- Sites that offer steem stats that show people abusing power.
Getting rid of flags
- User are complaining it doing more bad then good.
Constructive power holder meetings.
- Bring whales and normal users together to have a chat about the site.
Charging flag abusers.
- Possibly charge payment to the abusers for harmful actions.
I would love to hear your ideas its time to get organized and to figure out possible solutions that could be tried. We also need to set up some kinda of consequences for abusers.
