😥 I seem to have gotten into a flame war... 🔥
Hello fellow Steemians!
I'm just here checking my sanity. As some of might have seen in my previous posts, I have taken it upon myself to try to curate the feeds and dissuade spammers, plagiarists and tag-wranglers.
Yesterday I was pouring over the introduceyourself feed, as we all know this is probably the most misused tag on Steemit. While I scrolled through the posts, welcoming new-comers, verifying their content for plagiarism and checking the tags I came across a user with a 4 hour old account that to me was blatantly abusing Steemit.
Now this would be my standard procedure for flagging posts:
- Flag
- Comment the reason for flagging
- Remove the flag and up-vote if the content is corrected (You lose all curation rewards for doing so, hence it's not for the money...)
So here is the comment I left before moving on to other posts...
Yesterday went a little different, I flagged the post, left the comment as seen above and moved on to other posts. A few minutes later I checked my reply feed to see how things were going on and to my disappointment the user in question had gone, for want of a better word, completely ape shit! Link to the feed for your enjoyment. (Its at the bottom as my post was flagged by the owner)
Now you can still mosey onto his feed and verify that he is more than guilty of:
- Copy and paste posts;
- Abusing the introduceyourself tag;
- Misleading titles.
After going bananas he decided that I was a spammer and a troll for down-voting his " credible content", he moved on to try to call back the users that had commented on his post to down-vote my comments.
This moved on to trying to call @cheetah to down vote my posts.

Now please point out if I am a bat shit crazy spammer for trying to actually curate the feeds and not just up-vote and resteem for the reward in it, or if I am playing an active part in keeping Steemit clean and user friendly. Hey my account is only 17 days old... Maybe I have the wrong end of the stick. 🤔
Sources speak louder than typed words
Here is what i see as proof of my accusations
1
Here we can evidently see the same post Steemed 3 times, the image has changed and so have one of the tags in each post. Introduceyourself tag was found in all 3.
2
The title is also misleading "I'm putting my LAST penny into Steemit". Here is a snap-shot of the users wallet...
Heck, he even withdrew his Steem power...
3
Here we can clearly see that the same post has been copied and pasted again. The tags, title and image was changed, but the content remains the same. No introduceyourselftag was found.
And there you have it fellow Steemians. Do you think I am his personal "Steemit stalker", the "scum of Steemit", a spamming troll that is just sore that he is doing "way better than me" and apparently "really stupid and judgemental"?
I'll leave it for you to decide!
🖖 Live long and prosper! 😁

This is crazy but not unexpected. Sooner or later the spammers will react. I mean you and all others from the antispam league are making their life a hell (hopefully) so a reaction and a possible retaliation is not out of this world.
