Fair Warning--Please Resteem
I'm gonna start downvoting obviously pirated content. In particular there's quite a bit of pirated porn in the NSFW group that I'll be regularly and consistently downvoting to oblivion. If you don't want to be downvoted, please stop posting it and remove what you've already posted (unless the payout for the post has already happened).
There are plenty of other places where you can post pirated material. IMHO, Steemit shouldn't be one of them.
100% agree. Thanks for doing this.
Downvote , Flag , hit them with the ban hammer . I'm one to think that Steemit needs more moderation and a few police officers
No need. Appropriate flagging by the community is a better solution.
Thank you Sean-king, it drives me crazy how much obvious copy-pasted porn there is. These people make more $ doing it than almost every other newcomer working hard.
Best 100% up-vote I've spent all week.

Downvote that shit!... there should be only original NSFW content, that would make it very interesting...
Agreed 1000% -- I don't care about piracy it and of itself because I don't believe in the legitimacy or practicality of intellectual property outside of a voluntary protocol like a blockchain.
My problem is the spamminess and unoriginality of it all. Thankfully, the beauty of this place is the upvotes actually do something and it's nearly impossible to really game the steem system. Downvote those fakers man!
people game the system with bots, and buying whale votes. Whats to stop me from creating two accounts, deposit
$100,000 Steam power in both and just upvoting each other 100%? This is one issue I have with steem. I think it can be gamed, is being gamed, and will continue to be gamed.
What can stop you is public transactions and users noticing it and using their flags to defend the reward pool from obvious gaming of it.
This comment from bearbear613 deserves 100 upvotes.... couldn't of said it better man.
Exactly!
Agreed!
How to make $117.00 in one click ! Sounds like some internet scam? No, just ask @sean-king for his vote and see what 157,987.383 STEEM POWER can do!
Jokes aside, I do agree with @sean-king on this one. I know the whole idea of STEEMIT is to not be censored, or restrictive, but at least the content should be created not copied.
sean-king upvoting only valuable content or comments :D
Damn, I thought @sean-king was a crypto-ATM :( DANNNNNG!
Ok, so, now I'm confused. @sean-king IS or IS NOT a CryptoATM. This is hard.
He is when he uses 100% power on his votes.
dang right!
What must it take to get a legendary 100% vote
You have to wear a t-shirt that says I love steemit and go die in the middle of town square and thus be sacrificed for the cause of steemit to get that legendary upvote..
I actually find whales to be very, very conservative about their votes. I guess it's just human nature, after all "greed is good" - Gordon Gekko
Please prove your vote is $100+ @sean-king on this comment...
No, he will prove on this comment, just because he loves the wolf
Absolutely! Whilst I am not against porn, I don't see the point in just pasting it all over Steemit. People like @sean-king put some fantastic artful nude posts up, and they are great to look at due to the thought of composition, and of course the lovely ladies ehem.
It's a good feeling when you are appreciated by someone like Sean and he plonks a huge upvote on to your content and then you see crap posts that make someone $100's or maybe $1000's a week just for spamming copied content.
Plagiarism is plagiarism, however you look at it and we should all work together, minnows and whales alike to stomp it out and keep our beloved Steemit free of Spam.
Thank you for finnally pointing this out , people were making money off of picture that should belong on other sights , it really just shows how many horny men are on the sight , they can move on and then we will see the best of the community, thanks for your time
I've been doing this already. Its good to see someone shares the same sentiment.
IMO when the feed is flooded with spammy content that has enticing headlines It's harder for people posting original content to get clicks.
I posted something the other day and within seconds it was way down the list beneath a bunch of old YouTube videos people are re-posting.
It's like you're competing with years old You Tube Videos.
Thanks for noticing this :o)
This!
I completely agree with this. I have commented on at least one post indicating that use of Suicide Girls content requires permission and attribution.
People work to produce their work, they should be paid for it. If you make money (Steem) for other people's efforts, you should pay them.
Whenever I use content from the web, I look for "public domain", request permission (where applicable), and directly cite my source. If any content creator asks me to remove their content, I happily edit it out of my post. This should be a general rule of etiquette when posting anywhere.
