NOPAL4U Guidelines 1.0

The Palnet team has been working on guidelines to publish regarding what nopal4u's intended uses are and how they will be implemented.

While we have not completed ALL of the guidelines, a situation arose that required immediate attention and also requires this initial post on the use of the @nopal4u account.

This was brought to the team's attention and it was universally decided that death threats or threats of physical harm of any sort will not be tolerated under the Palnet tag.

Due to the comment as pictured, the accounts @coininstant and the account of the same user known as @honusurf have been muted from Palnet.

What this means is the following:

  1. The account is allowed to post one time per 24 hours
  2. The listed accounts are not able to downvote nor upvote any post to reward or remove Pal
  3. The accounts are no longer able to comment on Palnet posts, however, they will be visible on the Steem front-ends
  4. The accounts are still able to receive both upvotes and downvotes from other accounts
  5. Accounts are still able to use steem-engine to trade or sell

This was a nuclear option that we had hoped to not have to use

So let it be known that any threat of violence against another user will result in a Palnet mute, this includes:

  • Death Threats
  • Threats of physical violence
  • Sexual Harassment
  • Underage Pornography
  • Doxxing of another user without consent* This may be relaxed based on details and reasoning
    • Doxxing to be doxxing is not okay
    • Doxxing a known scammer may be okay

If you see anything of this nature that you feel needs to be addressed by the Palnet team. Please stop by our Discord at minnowpond.org and use the #msp-abuse-reporting channel.

This is NOT a comprehensive list that we will use. There will be updates as needed with those updates posted through the @nopal4u account. These posts will decline payout and resteems will be appreciated.

Thank you.

    I have self control, it took tons of it to flag all the innocent commenters just to get under you're skin! To prove it I have now made a new down-vote policy, I will only down-vote the accounts whom down-vote me. This means I will not be down-voting the accounts you interact with any more, or beany, or marky, unless those specific individuals down-vote me on their own.

    Basically if anyone flags me I will flag them back. Accounts that flag me may get their posts and or comments flagged by me. End of story. Maybe if I can prove that I have self-control I will be able to appeal to @nopal4u and get unblocked one day! P.S. that name nopal4u sounds kinda juvenile! Maybe youy should make a more professional name? You an try to break me and make me snap but I don't think you can now!

    Thanks, it was fun! @honusurf/@coininstant goodbye! https://steemit.com/beany/@coininstant/coininstant-downvote-policy-update-as-of-07-02-19

    Dear @nopal4u

    It's not my first time when I'm witnessing some issues related to this particular user. I'm sure it wasn't an easy decision to make.

    Cheers Piotr

    A couple things.

    First: A good and usable front end requires rules and requirements for use. The secret is to find that balance and it looks like you guys are on the right track. Except for

    Doxxing. Either it is or isn't ok. Not sometimes it is, sometimes it isn't. Either-Or. If you have a known scammer that needs to be doxxed I'd much rather the team be involved in this rather than adjudicate it after. In other words, if the team decides then THEY do it.

    Nicely done. Haters gonna hate. Dickheads gonna dick. Really nasty people gonna be gone. I'm good with that.

  • @abh12345(80)· 2612d

    I fully support this!

  • @honusurf(62)· 2612d

    Whtever we'll I'm not selling my PAL! That is what this as all about, @swelker101 was threatening me telling me I better power down and sell my pal. He said he was working on this even before. F@* them!

  • @coininstant(69)· 2612d

    Everybody should resteem this one!☝️

  • @coininstant(69)· 2612d

    Yeah right they will be blocking us off steemit next! Maybe that is what SMT are going to be for !???? Steemit is same as pal, centralized website!

  • @honusurf(62)· 2612d

    2. Both direct and indirect threats are a problem

    An indirect threat is saying something along the lines of "don't come to school tomorrow," Wilbur said. A direct threat could be "I'm going to go in there and kill everybody."

  • @coininstant(69)· 2612d

    I'm not ashamed, I re-steemed! and they think they are publicly shaming- lol yeah right!!!

  • @coininstant(69)· 2612d

    And what about him slandering me saying I am stupid and can't even do math! That guy @gtg flagged all my posts on steemit, and what I am not even allowed to troll him back? What we are not allowed to have fun and say whatever ew want? I did not say I was sending someone or anything of the matter! These guys have been bullying me on purpose boating me on this whole time just to get me to say something. This was not even bad at all. Go look at reddit, tons of people say stuff like that there daily!! Stupid, PAL will fail like Youtube then!

  • @coininstant(69)· 2612d

    all lies they make up!

    While I hate people threatening people online...or telling them to kill themselves for that matter...I cannot support this drastic action.

    Right at this moment people are raging against YouTube for censorship.

    And here you are punishing someone for a violent outburst when you had no clear guidelines or rules... Even though it's kinda well known that such behavior isn't really acceptable, no one knew this was going to happen. You only released these guidelines after you punished someone...and publicly shamed them afterwards.

    You still don't really have any guidelines released on who's going to be judge, jury, and executioner. And you have no guidelines on how one appeals the decision, or when it lets up, if ever.

    You are doing the exact same thing people are freaking out about YouTube and Twitter and Facebook doing.

    Flagged 100%. And I hope more follow my example.

    @coininstant and the ftg groupies he hangs out with are extremely toxic and predatory.

    Coininstant (among other people) have made threats such as saying he wants to strangle me and hopes I die on more than one occasion.

    He is going around flagging tons of people and those who comment on their post then raging when someone flags him back.

    They fail to understand freedom of speech is not freedom of consequences.

    Good to see action taken but many purist will see it as centralization. You really can’t win.

  • @amico(67)· 2613d

    That's really a good action: thanks for stopping violence so effectively! Much love and compassion!

    Resteemed with joy!

    A huge hug 🤗 from @amico!

  • @shadowmask(56)· 2613d

    It is good to see actions being taken, I hope this policy will apply to all post and all posters. We do not need to see a repeat of incidents on steemit carried over to here. I hope some of the other front end producers take note of your actions and understand that sometimes tolerance can only go so far.
