RE: Phishing site reported - steemautobot(dot)ml

Excuse me @arcange, for repeating this question. Since you are doing good job exposing scammers, I have to ask you — is there something to be done against the strong bullies who are flagging innocent people out of pure fun?

Here is an example:

What can be done against the flagging abuse? I have just put a post with that question in hope to find some solution without waging another senseless flagging war:

Sort:  

To be honest, there is not much to do against such behavior. Flag war is useless and destructive.
My (very personal) way to manage this situation has always been "don't feed the troll".

Never fed him. Never been in contact with him. He simply choose me for his sick fun.

Thank you anyway, @arcange.

Interesting point of view. So, what are your thoughts on @steemcleaners? You see utility in that, right?

Also, do you have any thoughts on community driven flag incentivization projects to combat abuse? These have actually been successful in deterring abuse in a number of instances. I'd call that a win.
