RE: There is a "Steemit Culture Clash" going on right now. Is it time for tough love?

oh yeah, by the way, please help my disabled sick brother who's a victim of an unjust legal system... every penny counts please help...

just kidding

but yes, these sorts of begging spam posts have been popping up everywhere lately.

I do understand that it looks like a good shot at some free money, especially if you live in bangladesh and a single whale-vote can easily pay your expenses, but really they'd be better of sharing real stories from their part of the world...

I'm still not flagging much, I just ignore spam and trust, that in the long run they'll give up, only if I stumble over the same guy a few times over will I be annoyed enough to flag it... That's not limited to begging posts but includes all these obvious "hey i didn't read your post but i am saying something nice so you'll give me an upvote"-posts, though.
