Let me start by saying that I'm excited about all of the new tribes and groups that are forming with Scotbot. Today @steem.leo launched steemleo.com. A community about investing.

I think it's awesome and I'm proud to have received a stake and be included. However..

For these to work, we need the community to follow at least some assemblance of common sense.

Here's an example of a steemleo tagged post.

Not a single thing about investing is in that post. Just a tag thrown on to suck tokens from a community.

I was about to flag it to remove rewards due to the mis-use of the tag, but then it struck me.

This person also used the Palnet tag. This post under Palnet is perfectly fine, but since I have stake in both, my flag would counter both.

This is where my irritation kicks in, it's not with Palnet, it's not with Steemleo, it's with people that mis-use tags.

I suppose I will have to create an account for each community to correctly use the stake that I have. That's extremely klunky and it's something I hope can be ironed out in the future.

I have a vision that in the NEW STEEM era, people will use the correct tags, and communities can work as intended where we can ALL grow in our own way.

In closing, USE THE CORRECT TAGS!
