Well I see people creating their own steemits and calling it whatever they may want to call it as long is it is synced with the blockchain. I could be way off here but I feel as if somebody goes and starts their very own blockchain with steemit right here, well they would have to be blind. lolz

> You might want to consider the Streisand effect when you flag in the future

I have no problem with this post getting more visibility, as long as people aren't being misled as they clearly were earlier (in bringing it to my attention). I'm all for promoting social channels in the wider Steem ecosystem as it sounds like the Steemit bar is, as well as Steemspeak.

Believe me I'm well aware of the Streisand effect and there have been unambiguously abusive posts that I watched instead of flagging to make sure they simply stayed unnoticed by almost everyone. 

> To me both of these platforms are merely stepping stones until Steemit is able to offer these features themselves.

Agree mostly. Real time chat may never be on the blockchain, and steemit.chat using the rocketchat software (bad as it is) is the official platform for now. Hopefully that will change to something better.

LOL, I have nothing against the bar. I'm sure the bar is great, and I may very well join your Discord server too.

I do, however, think that your retaliatory flag on my comment was inappropriate. There was nothing abusive or harmful about the comment. Would it be better if I just flagged and did not comment?
