Some of the finest top-notch sleuthing I have ever witnessed and the DRAMA

So as many of you are aware, I was in a flag war with @coininstant and his alter-ego @honusurf

It all started with his post https://www.palnet.io/bah/@coininstant/no-more-comments-please

This is where he states that he is not here for community, but for himself. On a personal level, this pretty much goes against what I feel the community is. It's not community building nor should it be rewarded. It was then that I posted that I was going to ensure that he earned zero in Palnet. My Steem is pitiful and doesn't do anything, so I'm actually not very concerned about it.

So, the flags began. After a couple of replies, I realized I wasn't just flagging some guy, but a person that is either off their meds or overly medicated. It's so hard to tell.

Either way, the narrative continued of them making comments about how they were going to ruin me with their 1 and 2 cent flags unless I stopped, and I told them that I was continuing to make sure that they were not going to earn any Pal and I would stop once they stopped using the tag. (paraphrased but it's all in the blockchain). If he continued to use the tag, then my flags would continue.

It was right around this time that he decided to call my bluff and start flagging people that responded to my posts or I responded to them. All the while letting them know that it was my fault that he flagged them. (personal responsibility is not one of his strong points). Well, I wasn't bluffing.

Back to the people he flagged in a minute..

So, I pointed out to him that he should check our wallet and do some math. (Which is good advice in a flag war, if you're not sure how flags work, it's best you don't engage).

Gandalf then made a quick post about... Well, you can see right here.

That was it right there. That's when it was decided that we would have out first mute.

I have read many of the arguments pro and against the post that nopal4u put out, and while some points are valid, the one I don't buy is that he didn't know that acts of violence would be considered over the line. If someone were to walk down the street in front of your house and take a giant shit on your lawn while you watch, are you going to go yell at them or are you going to say "Well, I better post a sign since he didn't know any better."?

I don't care how real the threat was, the whole point is it was a threat. End of story.

I was and still am fine with flagging and receiving flags from him for as long as he uses the Palnet tag. <--- There's your condition when you read.

So that was yesterday.. Today my gina notifications have been dinging with him trying to get my attention and I found this gem.. (he edits comments quite a bit so this may or may not be on the front-ends, but steemdb will never fail you.)

You really can't make this stuff up. Apparently, I am both Marky and Bernie according to him and he has proof that he will find if anyone wants it. Heh. I would love to see this proof just for the laugh.

back to those that he flagged during this time. Drop me a link to his flag, and I'll updoot it with a bit of Pal. I was hitting some as we went, but it was not easy keeping up.

My biggest complaint in all of this is that I did not receive any DRAMA tokens, I keep hearing that it's a good time to stock up with the impending HF.
