Will the real professional trolls trying to destroy this platform please stand up? Please re-steem this so we can find out.

Ha! Good luck with that.

on a serious note: Internet attracts the worst or best people. The same happens in steemit. No middle. C'est la virtuel vie.

Reward stuff that will make Steemit better.

Subjective. what kind of contents make steemit better? We assumed it was a 1000 word post. ain't nobody got time for that

Test accounts by adjusting reward levels, and study their contribution, activities, and stakes.

Ain't nobody got time for that. sorry.

What about whales themselves? Well.. their voting and decisions patterns may also seem quite trollish.

Human brain tends to think in terms of patterns. Doesn't exist. The fact that I eat pizza everyday, it's not my pattern. I simply ... love it. Some whales simply have favorite authors and it's okay to upvote the same content creators.

In conclusion, I would say there is no way to keep quiet the trolls. You might flag, downvote. They will continue to do their trolling. Best action is ignoring them.
