How to stop almost all abuse on Steem/SBD
Many times I have read posts about abuse and reward pool rape, some users try to take advantage of steam and actually get more than it is worth. I am talking mostly about bot upvot abuse. The solution did not really work until now.
Some users also have to try to take advantage of Damania Boat, I have to face it somehow. I want to put some new light on this problem and want to make it clear to everyone, where there is a real problem.
I think the Bot exploitation platform is present on the ATM that only real abuse is debated. Every second post was uprooted by some real person to receive high rewards that person has invested a lot of money so that he can get those high They can use those upsets that can be upgraded, though they prefer. If he raises his comment to $ 200, then he likes it, perhaps it is not the best idea or good strategy for the investor, but it's his choice.
It is no different when less sharer comments on his posts and comments all the time. Nobody complains about it, but it's really the same thing
If some users overwhelm the content of the same user all the time (@haejin or other), then it seems it is not misused and many people do not like it, but actually do not abuse it. Some users with high stakeholders choose Hedge as their special friend and extend all their positions. They have invested a lot in the forum, so they can do this. This is their choice if you are interested in the long term development of the forum, it is probably not the best thing, but if they think that the position of @haejin is their gold value, then this is it.
People can use their own stake to fight that kind of steam power or they can do this. Then this is their share and they should use it because they look fit.
Where the real problem lies
Most people do not know where the real problem is. For me it is clear as day and I wonder why I have not seen any post about it. The only real misuse used on steam is by the uptake bots, they do not exist, but they are currently being designed and how much power they have on Steam
Generally people raise their positions a bit and pay the paying bots to make them a bit more visible. Something is not wrong with her There is already a facility on Steam -> The promotion problem is that no one really uses it, mainly the way it was designed, promoted posts on steamits only appear in their separate tabs. There are so many ads and accessories by ICO. Most people do not want to look at it. The quality of the content is generally low on the promotion tab
The other platforms had the same problem and they used to integrate advertising and paid positions in regular content. In such a way, those positions will be more vulnerable and people will be exposed to advertising / paid positions from time to time. Bad design in my opinion by Steamet
This was the reason that one of the driving factors came in existence of paid bots. There was a demand for this by the users, they are willing to pay so that their positions are at greater risk. New users do not have many followers and it is hard to start them on steametts. I had the same problem at the beginning, the paid bots can help you with it, they provide a valid service for their users, so there is no real problem for paid appointment bots in general.
Real problem
There is a big problem, if people have paid bots for payment which do not care about the content and want only rewards, they make random posts and use payment uptops to collect rewards.
Some upgrade bots got a shill load of steam power over the past few months. The reason for this is that they represent money printing machine and all those who give them money for their creators. There are a large number of bots generated in those bots, it is difficult to find real numbers, but you can guess by the amount of steam power that those bots have big uplift bots produce thousands of dollars every day. It is more than Steve on any Witness, Author or App
Representing Stem Power in a paid uplift bot, every time, to vote himself, immediately becomes legal for the whale before he has to make the post and raise them. If those terms are given zero values, then it will be visible to others as I said that not before real abuse, but probably not the best idea, those who do not like it, they fall with their share Generally people sometimes do not raise 100% of their share by themselves. Almost no one does that, no whale will do this, who is interested in the development of the platform
Except paid appointment boats, that kind of behavior is suddenly legal. People handed over the bot to raise it and received nearly 100% of their investment, without the bad change of exploitation and exploitation of the Savings. It's a real problem and it's bad, really bad it can not be the only one who sees a problem there
What can be done?
There is no way to stop or control the paid up bots. They are now part of the system. We have to deal with this people who represent them should ask themselves that this is really the best interest for the growth of steam.
There is a simple change, which will solve the issue of misbehavior with paid bots: paid power was handed over to paid appointment bots and made use of paid upwash more expensive.
The cost of payment duties depends on everything on an open market on supply and demand. At present, the supply of steam power for those bots is very high. There is so much that using them on any content can generate profit for their users. If the supply is low, the price of the payment option will increase and no benefit will be anymore. People who want to use a payment uptought will only use them if they think their posts are important and will generate future awards for them. Disadvantages to the curse if they use them on random content
That is why the paying taker takes something to represent or just to leave at least the representative. A simple click to stop almost all misuses on Steam for some users. As easy as that
I hope some whales look at this post and think about what they are doing and how bad it is for the steam platform. Just stop thinking about short-term profits and think about the future of the forum.
Last word
I'm on leave now and I do not really want to deal with the stuff like ATM. Yet I think that it is very important that people understand where the real problem is.
I am doing this post with the maximum up-to-date twit bots for maximum visibility. Like I had said that the unpaid vote bots is a problem, but they have the amount of steam power.
To prevent abuse of Damania bots by paying bots, I can restrict them all. This will solve the problem on Damania, but not normally. Like I said that unpaid payments provide a valuable service and are important for new users. Ban is not the best solution
You can not stop abuse by punishing misbehavior The only way to prevent abuse is to make it impossible in the first place. Just like I said, just reduce the delegation, a simple action that will change everything, the delivered upvots should never generate auto profit for anyone.
Thanks for the articles...I wonder how did some person deploy a bot to promote their post? Is that the reason some good stemians who provide good contents which is more genuine will not gain much profits or upvote from a real person who read their post? the bot had more interest who had the big user of the bot....
