RE: Who Can Tell Me Why Al-Masdar News is on the @buildawhale Blacklist?

in #buildawhale7 years ago

Hi folks, just saw this post and since I am the subject I figured I would chime in.
@themarkymark & @meno I am saddened by the fact that you do not see AMNs posts as adding value, it is news coverage by people that invests a lot of time following the events in MENA reporting on what happens on the ground by people on the ground.
Steemit was brought to my attention by people on our news site proposing that we start publishing here as a way to circumvent the silly amount of effort put into trying to bring down our main site by way of cyber attacks. A lot of people do not like our coverage.
I really do not think you guys are for censorship in any way and are only concerned with your investment, something I can relate to and appreciate.
News is ill suited to a max 5 posts a day format as it will evolve regardless and to cover it we need to post more frequently.
I have not seen any other major publications on here and I have understood that people really would like there to be, can you perhaps see past the "spam" label and see that it is important for those interested in the subject matter of the posts for a full and exhaustive coverage?
I would love to improve the service so if you have the time feel free to point out any improvements that needs to be done.
