RE: Spammer going to spam all @buildawhale users in retaliation for blacklist
i mean since many of you have a good hold over steemit itself, and some might listen to you. Iv posted this 100z of times, this is the first reply i got, i had also made a post regarding this matter. There are a lot of good posts out there, and they get nex to nothing coz some youtuber is eating some 5$ shit and posts it, and gets 100z, or some hot chick just posing and bragging, gets 1000z. we need to make this a fair community, thats what steemit was all about. its been months, and we see similar posts or similar members on the trending or hot page. Alot of content is getting wasted due to ignorance, unless your a friend or relative or GF/BF or a whale or some programmer. Not everyone is a programmer here, nor friends with whale or their ass licker, nor famous youtuber. But i have seen really good posts, with a lot of research and effort being put in, and hardly gets a few cents. I see many whales go behind these famous spammers or reward pool rapers, but indirectly supporting stupid posts is no different.
if u think this is a fact, plz put this issue on the table, since you are a whale. PEACE..
I agree completely. BUT it isnt an easy fix. It is something that many whales wish to change but the even they cannot do much. Its up to the people who vote on these posts to stop it. A lot of these larger whales (and communities) who are posting trash and are on the trending page are also self voting while people who like me do not have much of an upvote do not even upvote our selves. Hopefully some of the changes in the next HF (or undoing some of HF19) will help. Need to change votes back to 1/4 strength IMO. <--- THIS IS NEEDED BAD!!!
There is alot of ass licking going on in chats, to get upvotes from whales, and and hot girls make easy money there, guys take a while and very few, who are good at ass licking.. im sure will get a few hates for this.. however PEACE..
Very true. If you are a whale or know people that work on the "anti-spam" campaigns, you can get away with spamming. It is politics as usual just like in the real world.
You make a lot of good points.
This needed to be said. I think it is the responsibility of all users to use their vote responsibly but unfortunately now that many are resorting to autovotes and bidbots the quality of rewarded content gets less and less. Remove the Trending page, It gives the wrong idea of how steemit operates for new users leaving them disappointed when their post gets 0. Maybe we could have a day without bots and see if anymore good content creators make a breakthrough.
Removing trending page means you only search for content you want to see and upvote if u like.. here on trending page they upvote for rewards.. we keep seeing posts of similar people and similar types.. steemit will operate more fairly if the trending and hot and promoted pages are removed.. one would only look for what they want.
If you have different trend, just don't use Trend Page!))
Go search for what you like! Or
You can use your feed page.
BTW with that excellent steem-plus chrome extension, you will be able to filter the tags of followed persons' posts, very convenient way to find something new among those people you are interested in.
My idea is - Why we should always cut something, instead of trying making it better, extending the possibilities of same thing?
I just upvoted your comment, please tell me if my vote was responsible?
That is for you to decide. We are all entitled to our opinion. Did you think it brought value to this post?
I know I did, and I must say.. well, yes indeed, I just upvoted your previous one again.
Don't be that responsible all the time, have some time just for fun! Remember, this is just the way we interact to each other here by means of text which can be emphasized to the others by the power of upvotes, and discussion line length. Anyway, I am glad to meet you @ammonite.
This guy here should bring some weight to my words.
Just as recently I have seen a pair of great legs with a steemit banner promoting to vote a community holder along with another #witness. And d*mn it has gotten itself almost 500 bucks and still counting. I am not backbiting the team though it concerns me a lot that if somebody would just be as daring as what the challenge is just to grab attention of most steemians, then this is not a fair ground. I am still testing the waters if I could still use steemit for my upcoming really controversial posts later on to at least have an audience who are at least one step above the mediocrity level. Seeing a trending post because of some exposed skin over a real mind-twitch-piece is a bit of dilemma to pursue steemit. You may check out my activities with utmost transparency that I do my fair share to acknowledge at least 60 percent of all the posts that come across my sight. Whether it is interesting or not (it is not us to judge what interesting is since it is the author's choice to post it - therefore it is interesting for them) Most of the chat groups as you say is just a pool of really huge number of users in which they just throw their links there not even thinking to support other people's efforts before they drop theirs. I make it to a point that I would be able to reply back to all comments posted to my blog and at least engage with my audience who were able to show some acknowledgement to your efforts.
There are chances where someone pays a girl to make posts with sexy shots and going to different places, and making 1000z daily..
He is talking about @purepinay and your talking about @sweetsssj Only @purepinay supports @surpassinggoogle.
If you check him out he is the most solid person on steemit. His witness (@steemgigs) supporters are not funded by him. They are creating post to show their support for him. He is a very humble guy and doesn't flaunt his witness all over the place. They like him because he is an awesome human being. As do I, he has had an impact on myself and my family from what he does. I would bet that everyone that knows him loves him.
