RE: Self-voting user list since HF19
@playfulfoodie a great point. To donwvote something you don't like is going to get you retaliation much worse unless its a noob account.
So maybe only down vote plagiarism, copy pasta and ligament "wrong" posts and just hopefully not to many people will up vote something that has a tendency to not be very valuable to the community.
Yes, definitely! I don't think downvoting something, just because you don't like it, is good practice anyway. Though I definitely do not agree with plenty of high payouts on crap posts...
Well the solution to that is not voting on them and maybe making comments on that post or talking to others who constantly vote on it. Lots of votes are auto votes anyways so might need to contact and discuss with people who are autoupvoting crap and maybe they will change their vote.
That's a good point. I wonder how active the autovoters are, or if they are even still around. Maybe their bot's the only one who's still active even!
yea well all powerful accounts use auto voters either for their sock puppets, friends or curation rewards.
Thats why authors who generally make a lot on their posts get so many bot up votes because they are reliable curation accounts without having to do ANYTHING at all.
Yeah, it's getting more and more frustrating to work for hardly any views or curation at all.
Yes that is true, yet at the same time what does FB pay for a post?
Well we all know the answer to that....
Also while it may not be a viable "job/income" for most it still emphasizes a VERY important point which is "it is best to only post/write about what is truly enjoyable or something you want to produce anyways"
Also something I always try and remind people of is that "we are the power" we have the power even if MUCH less than others to help shape this community. Be honest about it, be intelligent, considerate and progressive and we shall improve!
Yeah, we'll just keep on trying... I'm still worried that we're not enough of us to battle the others though. But you're right, just do what you think is good (and fun).
Yes, that way no matter what happens WE WIN!
Also profound example of the meager can influence the rich.
