Tried to make a Doom themed SteemFlagRewards Commercial + Another Shitposting Rant

### Didn't quite come out as expected but some may get a kick out of this sort of thing.

<center>https://ipfs.busy.org/ipfs/QmaXfDVjczpqNts6ptxDijzCjQwAjYcu134dcwdwJa6EMn</center>

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; I was inspired by a bit of old school gaming nostalgia. I really should have included a classic Doom open but couldn't find a good GIF. I was forced to create a few GIFs and you can probablly tell which ones. When I started making this abomination, I thought I would be able to crank it out in a couple hours but I eventually realized it was taking way too much damn time. 

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Those that know what I do, know that I have SteemFlagRewards coding work that needs to be done. Well... I've kind of been avoiding it like the plague as I haven't really felt tip top but figured working on something more fun would help me ease back into things.

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; I have done a few things to help with the bot as of late. We've had a few issues with the bot getting stuck into queue mode so I had to perform a couple SQL ninja edits and a restart to get things going again. That's the cost of keeping @steemflagrewards operational. Time and a little love because yall might as well know by know I really don't necessarily work for direct profit on this chain. 

### Am I crazy?...  Probably.
#

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; One of my greatest motivators here are my friends. I don't want anybody to be a bag holder and one of the biggest threats is Steem blockchain abuse. To really understand, you need to not only get in the mind of an investor but also the invester / blogger. 

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; To further elucidate, just take a look at the @jehfray profile and think you will be unsettled by what you see. What sort of message does that send to people? Does @gcalex think they are naive enough to believe that they can make $7+ for one line shitposting? Yeah, fat chance. Here's the more likely impression.

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; If I were a blogger that spends significant time and effort to produce high quality content (I'm not.) and I were looking into platforms to produce exclusive content, I would take one look at that crap and mosey right on. Why I remain here with staggering amount of abuse I have observed and their success is anybody's guess.

### Am I crazy?...  Probably.
#

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; The way I see it. We all have the power to be the metaphorical thorn in the side of these wise guys. The problem is few really care about Steem's long term success that they are willing to sacrifice their VP to flag. In my eyes, Steem is mostly a free-for-all stampede for rewards. Many have adopted the every man for them self mentality. Well, except a few of us rare breed types. The question is how long are we going to be willing to scrub the shit off the walls for the benefit of those that are smearing it in? 

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Actually, reminds me of a kind of funny story from when I was in the Marines. I'm not sure exactly when this happened but I have a vague recollection of a DI (Drill Instructor) hollering about recruits shitting in the pissers and pissing in the shitters. It's pretty much etched in my memory.

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; First of all, who the hell takes a dump in a urinal?! How the hell does that even work?! I don't remember cleaning shit outta pissers but I do remember our DI having the platoon run relays in the shower stall. Yeah, that was fun. /s

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Tying it back into Steem. You basically have a large number of asshats shitting in the pissers with impunity and then you have others trying to clean it up. That is prone to create some tension. Eventually, you'll have people say screw it and maybe even drop a deuce in the urinal. Why take the time to go shit properly? Why even flush? That's just WAY too much work. /s

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Lastly, I think I need to share my rule of thumb, the litmus test, for what is good or bad for Steem. All you need to do is think whether what you think would happen to Steem if everybody did that thing. For example, if all everybody did on Steem was circlejerk one-liners, would the platform succeed or fail? The answer is obvious but the question is what are you willing to do to change that?

### You don't have to flag. You could delegate to an account that does such as @admiralbot. You give us the muscle and we'll put it to work. Sound like a deal? It is. It really is. 
#

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;  We are not just some lone wolf flagger. We operate as a team as you can see from the video. I will eventually work on a system to incentivize these delegations beyond the value of abuse fighting they provide the chain. I know who our early supporters are and will make sure each and every one of you receive extra perks for supporting our work. It is greatly appreciated and also keeps me motivated.

Here are some handy delegation links!

Nah. I started rushing and think I got a bit sloppy. I really hate using PhotoShop for gifs and open to any recommendation.

That's cool. I think it's crucial that we have lots of people helping with the flagging to show that the Steem community will not tolerate abuse. That one with big earning shitposts needs some help from bigger players.
