Viewing a response to: @ozchartart/my-response-to-dantheman-s-downvoting-campaign-against-me
[](https://postimg.org/image/e4s2r8tzj/) In an attempt to stay neutral on all these issues, and the toxicity that currently exists in here, i am saying thanks for speaking your mind. A lot of thought last night was done. Two paths were laid out in front of my eyes: one path showed the division and death of a community with the root causes of **ego and greed**, and the other path showed a Peace Oracle leading the way towards two grown men shaking hands, at first unwillingly, but shaking hands nonetheless. I will continue to see us moving towards the second scenario because the communities that came before were all split apart in the way of the first path. ## When everyone is hemorraghing on the floor, it doesn't matter who was right or what rule was made. The blood on the floor is still a mess. I hadn't intended on saying what i'm going to say but for fuck's sake, you are all killing Steemit. Dan: Please don't be so rigid. Accept others who are different from you even though your stomach feels sick. Be more gentle with newbies as I've seen your abrasive, robotic-like way of interacting offends countless people. Berniesanders: Find the source of your misery. Poking a stick is getting old and you're driving away people, hurting a lot of us. You think your suffering doesn't affect us? It does. And we're hurting because of it. But I bet you're hurting more than us. What do you need? What would make you happy? Smooth: I have little to say. Fyrstikken: Quit going off the deep end. You're making the situation worse. And I know all of you are going to tell me to "butt out" and that it is not my business, but you're wrong. All of you. It is my business. It's all our business. We care. A lot of us DO CARE. But we are sick of this nonsense. We are all racking our brains to figure out how to find peace for you, but realize we cannot find peace for those who do not wish to have it. # Find a way, any way to resolve your differences. This is getting out of control and you're killing Steemit. Those who don't care about Steemit and building the decentralized future need to leave Steemit. it really is that simple. YOU DECIDE.

I disagree, I feel SteemIt, has been being "killed" by lazy curation, auto voting, bots, and shady people for quite some time. (See, Price, user-retention, and activity for evidence) Discussing it and looking for solutions isn't always neat and clean, but it is the first step to finding a resolution. It may get messy, but it is worse to just let it roll down a path that obviously isn't working.

I have to agree. I'd like for it to be less messy, but discussion and debate over these issues have to take place until we've made improvements to the platform. After all, we're still only in a beta and this platform havn't even lived one year yet. I personally would prefer having a heavily reformed downvote rather than a flag, any day of the week. The flag could be added separately at some point, as the platform matures.

I threw my two cents at this, now I'm going back to work. I can express an opinion but I cannot fix the problems. We are mirroring what's going on.

I think all this will make good to steem as an end result and will not kill it... I think many ideas for improvement will come because of conflicts like this... except we are all 100% stubborn...

It is stubborness and an inflexible mind that are the roots of users' frustrations.
