I've been doing this too. I only flag with a few percent, but I hope it indicates that their behaviour is unacceptable. They are making Steemit worse.
I know some people consider flagging to be some form of abuse, but it's just moderation. It can and has been abused, but that's a different issue
Well, the way I see the flag is a metaphor for a knife, you can make supper with it, or it can be used as a weapon to kill someone. It has to have the proper motive.
I don't want to kill anyone, but I hope to steer them to a better path :)
Nice one
This is a great idea. I have seen this done as well. I wrote my big rant on the topic above so I won't repeat it again here but I agree something needs to be done to discourage this behaviour and promote a valuable platform for us all to benefit from. The shit posts ruin it. I get so frustrated seeing people misuse this opportunity. Hopefully together we can nip it in the bud by sending gentle friendly reminders to those who may not know that this is not the intention of the platform :)
Of course one needs to realize that this is the first decentralized social network, in other words, it's up for the community to take care of it and head it in the right direction. We are exporing new teritories here and we make the rules as we come along. Steemit had much bigger issues in the past, I'm sure this will be resolved sooner or later.
Yes absolutely! If we work together, we can decide how this platform will be and that is an incredible opportunity! Of course we need to recognize that there are people here who are ignorant (they don't realize they are doing anything 'wrong' or 'disliked') they are just trying ways to get more votes and I understand that, I would just like to see it geared more in the direction I believe it was meant for and that is sharing quality content :)
When money is involved people get greedy.

You know I don't really care that much about the spam, what really frustrates me is that these people will not read a single line of your post and crap on it. And here's a clear example.
