If you delegate to Jerry Banfield, he is no longer paying delegators
Clone of @themarkymark post, learn more
I noticed recently Jerry has been randomly voting people, many of which are spammers and shit posters. I originally noticed it when I saw a 100% Jerry vote that was only like $0.21 on a spammer/troll and was curious what was going on. I know Jerry had around 400K SP delegated to his bid bot which should put it around a $5.60 vote.
He burned through his voting power and I assumed his larger delegators were pulling the plug on his delegation which does not look like the case. I looked on his blog and found a post a ways back mentioning he is shutting down his bot and giving upvotes to anyone who subscribes to his mailing list.
I didn't see any effort to notify and warn delegators that this was going to happen and they would no longer be receiving daily payouts for their delegation. I suspect his largest delegator @witness.svk and @svk isn't even aware of this change but no way to really verify that as they aren't really around anymore. @svk delegates around 320K SP out of his 415K SP.
A few users are still submitting bids to @jerrybanfield expecting a vote which does not happen and does not get refunded.
In one of Jerry's posts around 10 days ago Jerry explains he has over 4,000 users getting free upvotes by signing up to his mailing list. He also makes a snarky remark if you are not on Steem you shouldn't bother.
Jerry is now the head of the competitor website WEKU as the head of promotions. He also mentioned in a previous YouTube video he will only use Steem to funnel into his other sites and will talk shit about Steem.
If you are on the list below you are delegating to @jerrybanfield without any reward or notification of the removal of his bot. You are also supporting his brand which is used to attack and drive people off Steem.
