RE: Mooches vs Givers! Who gets more in the end? [Pro Tips]

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

Some people take selfishness to a whole new level. I know a user who makes a post and upvotes it, then makes multiple comments under the post and upvotes them all. If you comment on his post, he thanks you for commenting, replies your comment and upvotes his reply. He skips your comment. This guy wows me😂 like I don't know what specie he belongs to. I need to find out well cos he might be a member of the Homo erectus or Homo habilis 😂

But on a more serious note, I think steemit shoul consider making it impossible to upvote your own content, what d'yall think?

Sort:  

The issue with removing self voting is that it would have to be at a Steem blockchain level. This would be totally possibly but majority of witnesses would have to agree on it after a proposal was submitted and voted on.

And I know they can NEVER agree on that. For then, even whales would be begging other whales for upvotes

They will just make multiple accounts, that is why if you read the white paper (specifically the section I referenced) you will understand why it comes down to a community that wants it to succeed or it will implode!

Oooh that didn't even occur to me. By the way, I heard there is a bot that chases you around if you run multiple accounts

Lol you should read my post about private coins if you want to think that is possible (expired post so do not up vote it): https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@bigdeej/are-privacy-coins-really-private-does-a-private-coin-really-matter-who-is-satoshi-trap-doors-and-math-or-obfuscation

I'm on it.

Gotta add it to your post so it is linked. You always should include your link to a post IF it adds value. @shadowbot wrote a post about this actually recently:

Pro Tip:
When making a post ensure you stay on topic for your audience. When making replies, avoid linking back to your own posts until you have developed a real conversation and have a really good post worth sharing. If you have insight into a question someone is asking about, create a post and let them know thanks to the post and replies it led you to create your new post. Doing it this way builds a useful connection/web of information. DO NOT use this to spam your links around or you will get flagged hard by many many many people!

The whole of steemit voted on that post😃😃

Welcome to @shadowbot ;) if you aren't a member already you should consider joining!

Please tell me who satoshi is and then I will believe you can use a bot to "chase you around if you run multiple accounts". AND even if you do run multiple accounts, that doesn't make it bad, what if I run 3 businesses, why shouldn't I be allowed to have 3 legit accounts? That is an arbitrary way to decide who is abusing and unfairly penalizes good steemians while abusers can still get around. Again, Who is Satoshi? Since you can't answer that, it proves why trying to tie accounts together is a terrible way to reduce abuse. Content alone is all that should matter.

These are the leaches and parasites I speak of in my post. This is also why we have @shadowbot! Our community seeks to destroy their foothold here!

@shadowbot destrooooooy them all.....

Removing self upvote might tone it down a bit but if I am not mistaken there are people out there with multiple accounts and they upvote those other accounts as well
