Abuse-watcher Journey Start

It's all well and good that you want to fight abuse.

Just be sure that you don't become overzealous and start accusing everyone of abuse without proper evidence. Don't become a like Hive Watchers on Hive. We don't need that kind of toxicity on Blurt.

Be sure that you follow the principle of "innocent until proven guilty", and also be sure to gather some solid evidence before accusing someone of abuse.

I would advise you to talk with the @blurtwardens and discuss issues with some of the more experienced abuse fighters before you take any action toward any of the accounts you suspect of abuse. Of course, sometimes the abuse very blatant and obvious, but other times, something can look suspicious and turn out to be a nothing burger once you look more into depth.

This is excellent advice, and I fully support it. It's important to approach abuse fighting responsibly and with fairness 👍
