I totally agree with you. You're right, it'd be tough to calculate the actual impact that they have on the value overall, but even just cosmetically, it's an eyesore. I can say that if I was just starting out and that's one of the most frequent interactions I was getting on the platform (because they haven't had the time to network and chat with real Steemian folks yet), I'd have a bad taste in my mouth off rip. No good.
