RE: Manual Curation & Changes to Bid-Bot

in #smartsteem5 years ago

Nothing regarding anti-abuse is simple. A user can behave completely fine for a year, and out of a sudden promote content that is clearly classified as abuse. You might still remember the banfield bathroom incident.

However, there are plans in the works to fight abuse like never before. Whether those are successful is not guaranteed, but we're doing our best.

Sort:  

There are accounts that just milk rewards with junk such as one letter comments. They are obvious candidates for downvotes, as are those giving themselves huge self votes when nobody else is engaging with them. Your downvotes can make a huge difference in freeing up rewards for more worthy content.

Thanks for your recent support.

I obliterated that account

I'm low on voting power, but there's always !BEER

Thanks for that. I see a few serial abusers are getting hammered. Good to see whales cleaning the place up.

To view or trade BEER go to steem-engine.com.

Hey @themarkymark, here is your BEER token. Enjoy it!

Do you already know our BEER Crowdfunding

Agreed, but there's a wide gap between attempting to and not bothering to. If that is the plan then I applaud those efforts.

Once we've done the re-design, we'll be monitoring the progress. If the situation does not improve, moving away from the current promotion model is of course on the table. But we're confident to be able to improve things.

Regardless, this is still great news!
