RE: ✳️ The Steem Purge - It Has Begun, Lean Back & Enjoy The Show!
I AM DOWN FOR THE CAUSE!!!
As my voting strength isnt that forceful even at 100% Id certainly like to do my part... Even if it is not exclusively only looking for spam, plagiarism, etc but just doing the right thing when coming across it..Can you offer any advice for the users like myself with little SP and possibly in danger or being punished by the wrongdoers..
Thanks so much
Wouldn't most of you agree, that the great majority of these so called folks who need purging are whales though?
I mean, for instance, I pretty much live in the "Cryptocurrency" tag here on Steemit, and this one guy is always at the top, who literally posts like the same 6 fucking posts everyday, and makes hundreds of dollars.
I wouldn't care if the posts were actually good, but they are literally the same fucking posts everyday, with the same images and all, and he and his buddies up-vote the shit out of that garbage.
Unfortunately, when you play with fire, and create a pay-to-win system like Steemit... ya have to deal with the consequences of getting burnt more often than not.
Actually there are many great initiatives in place for the fight against Spam and Plagiarism already, just like the @Spaminator and @Steemcleaners, which you may get in touch with via the Steemit.Chat.
The Fight Bernie started is, at least the way I see it, more against the Abuse of Power by Whales, which you can as well report to him anonymously via the Steemit.Chat I guess 😉
That's actually the thing I support Bernie on. We Minnows can't act against the whales abuse on Steemit but he can. So report such things to him and he might change it ;)
Aha - Didn't think of that - I saw some users reporting abusive whales by sending a very small amount of SBD and writing in the memo but the steemit.chat is probably the way to go.. I suppose I can do my part with down voting the obvious spam of the newer accounts that really couldn't harm me as a whale could destroy me.. Bernie is a BEAST huh?? I saw some of the whales he went after and he definitely has some major bot vote power to shut down abusers...
Hopefully an algorithm of some kind can be built into the platform so people like him do not have to manually do all the work.. Thanks again for the insight and I will certainly resteem any posts shedding light and info on building strength in numbers to rid the Steemit abuse
