RE: Bad news for NewSteem // @theycallmedan seems to be changing his position on Bidbots

in #bots6 years ago

Not sure what this is in reference to? I have been upvoting people getting hit by DVs that are not warranted. You are free to make accusations about me, but my DMs are always open if you have a question.
BTW, look at my DVs from yesterday alone and tell me what I am succumbing to? I am working overtime against bid bot abuse, spending hours everyday manually DVing. You can have your opinion about me but you are pretty much trying to smear my name without even talking to me. You are free to do that, but not sure what you want to accomplish.
I dont even know what post you are talking about, I have countered countless DV abuse that you need to show me a link. Also, if I choose to counter a vote is my right, and if I choose to uncounter a vote that is my right. I have been hitting booster, and any other bot without discrimination. If it is bid bot abuse, I am on it.

It was a post of mine. Here it is: https://steemit.com/art/@katharsisdrill/downvoted-the-bidbottophant-explains-why

As long as the #newsteem change continues it's all I want to hear.

Thanks, will look into this. Not sure how this happened, I have never unvoted a vote before, well I can count on my hands when it happened and it was because of a misclick. Will look into this katarsisdrill and if I can still give you a helping vote I will.

That post was at 8 days, so I threw you an upvote on a newer post to make up for the abuse. Cheers.

@fyrstikken was the one doing the abuse. Main thing for me is that this thing is done and done thoroughly to make a better and more robust Steem. I have posted my art here for three years and I would very much like to keep my investment healthy.

Thanks all the same!

It seems like he does appreciate what you do. Just misunderstood perhaps?

I’m cranky before I’ve had my coffee lol. Just when you are spending the time and stake that I am and see a post like this, kinda rubs me the wrong way. My DMs are open and if you see abuse you should know by now you can always reach out and at the very least get an explanation from me.

Does that mean you wanna support @steemflagrewards project? :)

Steem has so much potential for success. Don't let the little stuff bother you to much. I believe the people on Steem all want the same thing here now.

The timing and what the post represents, made for some bad optics. It was a neutral anti-bid-bot post that booster took personal exception to and wiped the votes on.

There was a lot of good vibes flowing when we were able to resurrect the post with your help. I can see how people can jump to conclusions about your intentions removing the vote. If it was inadvertent, I think you've earned the benefit of the doubt.

In the future, I guarantee if you simply reach out to me you will get a answer everytime.

Not sure what this is in reference to?

I mean its pretty clear what it is about. You pulled the vote from a guy that made the bidbottophant post few hours before it payed out.
Theres a link in the post. Theres the screenshot from steemd.
I dont see how its not clear.

Im just making conclusions from your actions and the actions of the reputable steemians here. You are free to give your response to this and make it clear to everyone what has happened in this case.

I dont have an opinion about you beyond what i see you do and say. And this is something you obviously did since the blockchain doesnt lie.

My goal is to make sure that the rethoric doesnt soften and that people like you that the community depends on to push this through dont fall under the influence of bidbot owners and their supporters.
Some have already fallen under their influence so please give some feedback as to why you pulled your vote and let the Bidbottophant post remain greyed out.

To be honest I had no clue how that happened. It maybe obv to you, I counter dozens of DVs weekly so like I said a link would be nice. I don’t remember pulling a vote at the last second. If anything this is something to bring to my attention. If anything this is a glitch. Trusted people use my posting key to help me with contest etc. maybe a flare up. I def didbt remove any vote of mine last minute, I’ve never done that before. So if is showing that I did, I will need to investigate.

That is fair. I hope you investigate and if indeed someone did it in your place with your posting key, it might be time to reconsider who you trust.

I could apologize for the sensationalist title and the post but i cant. As i repeat constantly. This is a matter of attrition and maintaining pressure is a must. Pressure on the bots and pressure on ourselves.

Do what you want. If you want a relationship with me, reach out man. I am very easy to talk to.

Nothing against you, i do like listening to your videos, but honestly, any relationship here with whales in times like this leads to bias and when theres a goal to achieve,more often then not, that bias leads to inaction and closing ones eye to the problem that might occur.

I know you perceive this as unnecessary and in bad blood, but posts like this keep people on their toes and any "relationship" you have with someone like you that affects the blockchain in such a big way would probably over time lead to complacency.

When i see you do what i think is positive, i always support it. Now ive seen you do something i did not support. Thats why this post is here among many other reasons.
Youve been the target as much as Aggroed has here for example.
And the provocative manner of it got the word out about both things. ;)
