Once again we are seeing users explicitly or implicitly impersonate the @steemcleaners while maliciously downvoting others for seemingly no reason at all.
Important!
The @boosta account is not part of @steemcleaners and is in NO way affiliated with the @steemcleaners.
Unfortunately, it is not the first impersonator and will not be the last.
If you have received a downvote from an account that:
- Uses the SteemCleaners banner or logo
- Directs users to the SteemCleaners Discord
- Posts comments that resemble SteemCleaners or Cheetah comments
Verify that the account is legitimately part of the @steemcleaners family of accounts, listed below. If the account is not one of those listed below, you have received a malicious impersonator downvote. The reason for the downvote can be anything at all or it may just be random.
This is the official list of accounts that are part of the @steemcleaners family:
- @steemcleaners
- @steemcleaner
- @cheetah (hands-off bot)
- @sariel
Remaining accounts (tools-bots):
- @guard (hands-off bot)
- @plentyofphish
- @broombot
Other accounts that are NOT part of @steemcleaners project but are separate projects that are supporting our work:
@spaminator project with its spam detecting and cleaning bots:
- @spaminator (bot)
- @mack-bot (bot)
- @mack-botjr (backup bot)
All of above accounts operate within strictly predefined scope and don't randomly downvote users.
LOL. Finally some fun in crypto-space. Unlike you, leeches, I don't need to sell. You are selling from the beginning. Circle jerking will end soon.
Downvoting is not a crime. Stinc built it into the system. Where was this unwritten rule only "steemcleaners" can downvote.
You did nothing wrong but use the website as designed.
Fuck em'
and fuck while your at it give a downvote for the hell of it. I would be flattered anyone takes the time out of their short life to click up or down on my shit.
Cheers man
Not that you're wrong, but this is a different tune than you've sung about Bernie. Wassup wit dat?
You are running Ponzi which will be exposed very soon. My Binance account is now blocked (waiting for answer). I can't withdraw STEEM. You are calling this a blockchain. I suspected but I didn't know how big this fraud is.
@boosta. Really? Your Binance account is now blocked. Hope you didn't go against any of binance policies?😂 perhaps u should check yourself first before ringing a scam alert. I like you tho✌😍
I believe him, it has happened to me plenty, any centralized website can block anyone for anything, not sure why you would find this so hard to believe. This is exactly why everyone says to never leave large amounts on exchanges. Exchange can block anyone just like how I'm blocked here on steemit.com. I've had so many exchanges shutter down on me I can't even count! lol Careful it is the wild west out there!
Lol @honusurf 😀😂. Thanks for this info. Its helpful✌🌸
Wow, wow, wow... I agree with you that people are being oppressive with downvotes, and they need to be careful because if someone were to downvote another account frequently enough to damage their business it would be legitimate cause for a lawsuit. However, let's remember that Steem is an opensource project. Anyone can look through the code and see what Steem is. So, saying its not a blockchain... Well, it is though.
Problem solved. Maybe I've been buying too much ;There are still some blockchain blood in STEEM :)
This is a blockchain, binance is centralize, steemit.com is centralized, and they both have a telephone! lol STEEM deposits and withdrawals were always blocked on binance whenever I used to use them a lot, can't believe it's still down! That is how they manipulate the price I am suspecting.
Jeez...!! Sorry @boosta, that's so painful, but have they done anything concerning your account??
Right Moment to tell you,
your cheetah Bot downvote to much New Legit Accounts!!!
I downvote him for every false desicion, to save this Members...
Decline would be nice...
Have a nice Day

Yeah no 3 strikes your out. No warnings. No explaining how things work or what is allowed. Some people do not know Steemit etiquette and with no warning given are downvoted and scared off.
What the actual fuck
This is the Point!
Plus this Steemians most time dont know, how they can change this...
I dont know direktly, without reading about it before i need it...
Thanks for your support.

Fuck. This whole idea of downvoting has led to loss of many active accounts on steemit. Thats why steem is losing its value. I could remember when it was $1.4 per steem, this ecosystem was lively and sweet. Then all of a sudden, we're here today. It is so pathetic. If steemit wants to bounce back, these nonsense have to stop😐😐
Yeah I just got into this downvoting thing after they brought it up first with the hf! lol
Hi, Im new here and I absolutely love it. Thank you for being a part of the steemit community !
Hi!
I'm still lost in steem there's a lot to go through and so little time to do this. Can you help me ?
Sure, what do you need help with? If you have a question just ask.
YOU ARE ON THE NAUGHTY LIST. YOU HAVE BEEN FLAGGED. GOODBYE.
Welcome and get ready for the ride!
Thanks for the update, but to speak on the random down votes from those accounts. I have been down voted for no reason, and had to reach out to you because you do not put comments on peoples pages of why you down voted them. I would suggest doing that in the future.
Why is this featured? :'D
The payout should have been set to "decline". I'm not sure why by colleague didn't do it.
You really don't want to go inside the rabbit hole. You can't even imagine how much some people are actually earning by playing the vigilante card on this blockchain.
yea well fuck them, they once stalked me for about a month, on EVERY post, didnt matter what the content was, they will never be my friends again, they're fascist parasite wankers who don't even put up their own money, they just like the power and to play vigilante as you say ... GODS DAM why is this featured, i just had a not too bad night, now they put steemnazis in my face
Mostly questioning why Steemit Inc would make it a featured post. But hey, it's drama and entertainment for some I guess.
Don't blame them. They are are currently busy selling banner ads.
Why focus on 10x or 100x your user-base like any StartUp or growth company when you can get 20% more ad-revenue on one in decline though?
!dramatoken
You've got DRAMA. You are going to be a Whale!
To view or trade
DRAMAgo to steem-engine.com.yea, indeed, why is this featured ?
why dont they use those millions in steempower to actively create and promote ?
GOOD question
im tired :p o-yasumi
I think you can pay to be featured, no?
This is featured by Steemit because the whole 'program' "is Steemit". All of their long arms are their puppets. The filtering the rewards back to the pool for the "whales" coughs ah hemmm Steemit/Alpha/ whatever the fuck you want to call it aka Stinc.. is the sole purpose of this service.
I guess this one qualifies too:

I follow the rules. No spam, shit-posts and self-votes.
I really appreciate your advice and encouragement.
The judge: you are sentenced to death.The accused: I really appreciate your advice and encouragement.That's a fine level of sarcasm for sure. Not even mad.
I was drinking water and I almost died by choking when I read that.
a lawyer is missing :)
Boosta what are your supposed crimes of high treason? I don't get what they are attempting to smear you with. I see no crime.
George Carlin:
... You don’t have to be a historian or a political scientist to see the Bigger Dick foreign policy theory at work. It sounds like this: “What?! They have bigger dicks?! BOMB THEM!”Ahhh well said Sir. Well said.
How can I grow my steemit account can anybody help me plz

No use, they even downvote u on that after a while, and the reason is nothing.
There are many thing that you can do, earn by commenting, playing steemmonsters, useing actifit, uploading photos to appics, you can even invest with smartsteem or just posting in all the tribes/forks in the steem community.
You have been gifted 500 Hobo tokens. Don't know what they are and what you can do with them? Check out this link:

Give blow jobs to GTG like that whore does with the fake name acct.. oh shit I forgot the name. The slut that shows her ass and crotch while telling other women not to show their legs from the knee down.
Cock sucking has served her well
plentyofphish...that was creative and gave me a good giggle.
Yeah a great scammy name for a pack of scamming monkeys.
I don't know who they are or what they do I just laughed because it was so close to the name of the online dating site called Plenty Of Fish.
Phishing is a cybercrime in which a target or targets are contacted by email, telephone or text message by someone posing as a legitimate institution to lure individuals into providing sensitive data such as personally identifiable information, banking and credit card details, and passwords.
What Is Phishing? - Phishing
www.phishing.org/what-is-phishing
I've heard of that before wasn't quite sure what they called it I just knew people will try and scam people through emails or phone calls, the text message one was a surprise..must be something new they try to scam people through text, I don't respond to text I don't know anyway, same with emails or calls. Thanks.
If they dont randomly downvote without a reason then how about telling the reason for the downvote so that people won't make mistakes again. Cuz it might seem the post is clearly normal but there is a downvote over every post and the reason is ' we don't know'. So, isn't it better we get the reason for being downvoted cuz I think innocent are being harmed without a proper reason known
Who are these "cleaners" and who elected them? We have the power to vote out witnesses, we can't vote these people out if we don't like their judgments. They should not even be recognized for having any authority. They are simply bullies.
No, we don't. Votes for witnesses are stake-weighted, just like all votes on Steem. Whales possess the vast majority of stake, and this gives them complete control of the witnesses that control the blockchain.
We have the right, but not the power, which is held by the ninjaminers. This invalidates the right, and rhetoric regarding control of the witnesses. Whales have the power.
Perhaps this would be better phrased 'the more Steem you have, the more influence...' because all the Steem that exists was mined before it could be bought, and most of it is still in the wallets of the ninjaminers today. Investors don't really have the power. The original ninaminers still do.
Yes, but my point is that you have the ability to vote for witnesses according to your investment in the blockchain. The more invested you are in Steem the more influence over who becomes a witness you have. It is an option available to you to some degree.
However, we can't make decisions on who decides to start up a flagging project and goes around flagging people according to their whim and acting as if they are the authoritative organization on the network. Witnesses usually have controlled speech and are cautious about what they say, this is because they know they are in an "elected" position and can lose the favor of their voters. This is not true for these flagging communities.
I think I mistakenly replied to my own comment rather than to you. Sorry about that! Tried to delete and post the comment below properly, but Steemconnect doesn't want to play nice atm.
No problem, your comments are interesting.
@boosta Vs @steemcleaners . . . What shall we call the tournament? Ha ha ha!
We need something more than that. We need an alliance that keeps Steemcleaners in check. We need people like @haejin, @boosta and as many whales as possible to team up as a watchdog of Steemcleaners. The name "Retaliator's Creed" has a nice ring to it.
To safeguard who? . . . policy and procedures or . . . ? Quite curious!
It is called checks and balances. Steemcleaners is a project made by unofficial people acting in an authoritarian role and claiming they act for the majority. I applaud their actions against phishing scammers. However, no one elected them, yet they act as authoritarians and I have witnessed them flag legitimate businesses simply because those businesses re-post from their own blogs and do not jump through the verification hoops of Steemcleaner's policies. I went to their discord server to communicate to them this mistake and showed them a link to their blog as authenticity. These people don't accept it because they want power over others. Their policies are illegitimate and their authority is self-assumed.
They and all those that delegate to them are at risk of legal action.
You cannot harass a business and cause them economic harm or damage to their reputation without it creating an opportunity for that business to claim financial damage and defamation.
Downvoting a Steem account once or twice should not be legally actionable, but Steem is a public utility and as such human rights do apply. If it can be proved that Steemcleaners, any Steem account or any collective of Steem accounts in coordination have relentlessly acted against a business presence on Steem and has caused damage to the reputation or financial operations of that business all participants of the flagging account or group of flagging accounts, including all delegating accounts, can be made liable for any resulting damages.
The argument "its a reward pool" and "its a meritocracy" are ideologies and will not hold up in a court of law. The legal system will most likely recognize the business' rights over their SP purchased and use in promoting their own business (just as @haejin does for his business haejin.com). The Steem blockchain functions so as to allow for self-voting in order to promote one's own post. This is a functional feature of the Steem blockchain and might be a deciding factor for a business that invests in a Steem account and a large amount of SP for the sake of self-promotion.
While bidbots may seem to be a bad thing for many people having a certain ideology, from a legal standpoint an upvote service is a completely legitimate business no different from an SEO service or any other service.
If an individual account or a collective of accounts and delegating accounts were to target a business with a presence on Steem and excessively downvote the business to the point of causing clear damage to the business and its operations the aggressor(s) most certainly could be sought out in a court of law for damages.
Having some familiarity with US courts, I have zero confidence in this. The US court system is the best money can buy, and this is proven over and over in rulings. The best lawyers are the worst people, and this goes double for judges, as well as legislators that control them through the confirmation process. Need I even mention the unfortunate affect of the nominating executive?
In jurisdictions where judges are elected, all the problems of representative democracy apply, and few pay much attention to judicial elections, which is reflected in the low numbers of votes cast in those elections.
Money talks, and therefore walks all over poverty, which bears all the costs in systems dominated by stake weighting. Exceptions but prove the rule.
A huge barrier to legal action based on Steem is that pseudonymity is potential here, and creates effective immunity. Given my confidence and expectations in and of courts, I actually think this is a good thing, particularly due to the effect of stake on the courts.
Individuals have been personally linked to actionable torts on Steem, and to my knowledge no legal actions have been undertaken to date. Such tortuous acts have included death threats, sexual harassment, and libel, and the evidence remains in the blockchain making liability easily provable.
This is much of the basis for why I suspect Steem is being killed deliberately, because absent nominal payment to the witnesses, that evidence filled blockchain is likely to be deleted when the witnesses move on.
But...
The blockchain is a public ledger system which is currently not deleted and easily copied for any purpose whatsoever including future legal actions.
So, purposeful deletion of the blockchain is unlikely to result in complete deletion of any such evidence. No one can be quite sure that there aren't multiple copies being made every few days.
This is very true, and entirely possible, and I actually think there are folks undertaking to do so.
I hope they succeed, without reservation whatsoever.
If they're not, there must be reasons for it. For myself, I reckon I have no cause of action, and neither any capacity to undertake such expense in time and treasure.
That's Great work... How can i delegate @steemcleners
If this post really means what it is saying then can you tell me why @mack-bot is downvoting me in my current original posts? I don't see any spams, or else so can you atleast tell me why am i being downvoted. This not only makes me feel sad but also makes me feel i am not fit for steemit that also when i am innocent.
Please tell me my mistake in this post:

@steemcleaners,
