Please help.
Is there a way to get ahold of steemit itself to report bad and abusive behavior? My son has recently been attacked and had all of his posts and comments downvoted into oblivion because he asked some questions and voiced some complaints. He hasn't done anything wrong and has continualy been very polite compared to the person downvoting him and saying he was going to "make him his bitch." The person abusing their power is @berniesanders who has used fake accounts to help attack @erebus If you know of a way to stop this abuse please help.

People are allowed to vote their stake (or flag with it) however they see fit. There is nobody, even the people who work for steemit, that can stop it. In a decentralized platform you take the good with the bad, if you are willing to accept the upvotes from the community you have to take the flags as well.
In a case like this he would either need to find people willing to upvote the posts to counteract the flags or see if the person flagging him is willing to remove them.
That is not true the owners of this site can remove or ban from posting anyone they want. If they couldn't ISIS would be here making money and posting propaganda.
The prick who is flagging stuff and trying to destroy steemit is a perfect example of someone who needs to be removed before he does destroy steemit. Because he wont stop because he enjoys raping the reward pool and harming innocent people.
No, they actually can't remove anyone or ban anyone. There is no mechanism for it on this site.
Yes they can do something, check out @tomscott.
Umm, the user edited his posts. He was cheetah banned, but that has nothing to do with the people who own steemit, Cheetah is anyx's robot.
Ok, btw. who owns Steemcleaners?
Its just a group of users who got tired of seeing the spam/abuse and grouped together to do something about it. Not associated with steemit inc in any way though.
Ok.
I'm not entirely sure, but doesn't the "Ok, btw." in my comment kind of suggest that I was asking an another thing just from curiosity and that I wasn't implying that it had anything to do with my previous assumption?
Forgive me being snarky. I'm starting to feel a bit tired and overly touchy as it's already 4am.
Was just trying to clarify, there seems to be a lot of confusion over steemcleaners out there and I generally try to take the time to explain who we are.
Ndiyo. is important то Steem позволять Militär 教会 use. No Censorship
