RE: How to make friends and influence people
@thedarkhorse, nice to meet you. Any friend of @lynncoyle1 is my friend too ;0)
I’ve seen a post by @sneaky-ninja about setting up a new @sneaky-ninja abuse policy.
Basically, the post said that @sneaky-ninja will set up a team of people (called @steembotcleaners) to manually go through all votes that have been bought, and will deal with plagiarism and low-quality content.
I don’t know how they will manage to deal with it, but if you ask me, it is a step in the right direction...
Agreed and took a quick look at your latest posts. Added you to my follow list.
I have seen the post about the changes that sneaky-ninja is testing and very interested to see how that all plays out...and if it lasts. Really hoping that it will clean things up a little and maybe with less spammers buying votes there will be room for quality posts to use these services once and a while to get some exposure without loosing your butt doing so.
True.
But the question remains: who will decide what’s a quality post and what’s not? And why can’t a short post be of more quality than a long one?
Anyways, I’m just really glad to see that people are finally taking steps to do something about it. Because if nothing is done, SteemIt will go down. The trending page which is basically the main SteemIt advertisement, looks aweful. The wrong people and the wrong posts are being rewarded, and a wrong message is sent to the ‘outside world’.
Even if this @steembotcleaners experiment fails, it is good to see a bot owner being aware of the problem and willing to take steps to make a change. It might be the beginning of the future...
Btw, thanks for the follow ;0)
Quality is subjective, but cut & paste plagiarism and stolen photos/meme/videos don't deserve rewards. This is about original content not stealing from others and getting paid for it.
