Fucken scammers mate. All of them.

That seems like it, exploiting and extracting the reward pool...

Same old story from that part of the world.

Don't worry! Gofundme is not allowed there but HIVE is special and we have more anti abuse resources than Gofundme…..

Correction, we have less than 10 people who do abuse at a high level and Gofundme is a giant business with a whole bunch of employees and lots of cash flow.

We are doomed!!!

Seemingly so.

We should keep onboarding more users though! That's all we need is more users that do the same thing so we can fix it.

What could go wrong!

Haha, your sarcasm is at Australian level. Mine too, because I'm Australian I suppose.

you get a big chunk that same way from posh, much more then spendhbd does

Compare ananas with apples 🤣

reward pool = reward pool

where do you think your payments from posh comes from?

Posh is not systematically offloading HIVE at our expense.

If it is. Please prove it.

Every time someone mentions posh when there is a scam, the conversation stops being serious.

Lots of things are funded through the reward pool that are “wrong” but not inherently immoral.

Perpetuating scams via the reward pool is immoral. Even if it can never fully be stopped, it doesn’t matter.

We should all have a conversation about posh in a serious way but in my mind it needs its own bucket.

Sorry I’m intense about this! I think I’m just having a moment!

Hope things are going well on your end!

All good here! We all have our moments! 😉

I never said posh is a scam, but it has some very serious problems.

One of them is that it is funded with the reward pool. You can easily trace posh payments and see where it comes from. The question is: Can we fund projects with the reward pool? If I do the same to fund my own project, it will be ok?

I don't think posh does things via WhatsApp chats nor deceives the community with false onboards and results, it's all visible, if you don't agree you can downvote it 🤷

they just use self voting comments to pay you over 2000 Hive per month to spam AI spun articles on chain.

beautiful!!

btw, posts saying millions of views are deceiving too!! since the views on hive is just in the hundreds.
just like LEO brought 10k new users!! one can say what they want for others to believe

more like comparing poop to pizza 😂

i didn't want to sound too vulgar 🤣

Not all.
Please, don't use the wrong doings of a few to judge all. The fact there is a rotten egg in-between good eggs doesn't mean all other eggs are rotten. I guess you probably had a bad experience with some people, however, not everyone is bad.

You're all as bad as each other...all grubbing for a few cents any way you can with no care as to how it happens. And all the while making Hive look like a fucken joke with your spend HBD posts and other such shit.

You're all as bad as each other.

So that's how it is...

I think you should actually know someone first before you say something like this. I don't think it's okay to generalize it. It would not be okay to say Mr A is a scammer because Mr B who is from the same country as Mr A, scammed somebody.

My country has honest people just that the deeds of the bad once has overshadowed the honest ones.

And all the while making Hive look like a fucken joke with your spend HBD posts and other such shit.

I don't make SpendHBD posts, and I have never made SpendHBD posts. If you check through my posts, you'll see that I share my perspective of the topic I write on. No AI. No plagiarism. No Spamming. Though my word construction is not top notch, I try. It's calm though. I respect your perspective.

If you act like it is not a bigger issue for some places than others than it is a scam.

I like a lot of you guys.

But the Nigerian Prince scam was huge before the internet even existed. So like we cannot sit here and act like reality is not reality.

Maybe he was a little over the top but I would argue what he is trying to say is coming from a real place and it is a problem every western country has to deal with.

Well, I try to understand this but at some point it crosses the line with the statements and constant downvote actions. Yes, Nigeria is one of the top 10 countries in the world with high fraud rates but so is India and Venezuelans and some other countries. There have been two incidents on hive regarding money but i didn’t see anybody referencing the country of those individuals. It’s unfortunate especially for those that add value and maintain their reputation.

It’s almost the same things that annoys me with certain feminists that say all men are the same when they discuss rape and domestic violence.

I respect you so much @hurtlocker! But you need to see that this user has hatred on lock for people from my country and it so obvious. Even this user @nwothini335 is dv by him. I just had to say this because it’s too much.

If you've got something to say to me say it directly, no need to go through @hurtlocker

Anyway, I remember you. I remember very well what you did, and yet you still have the gall to show your face around here? Shameful, absolutely shameful of you.

Why are you here shooting the messenger reporting on a bad actor in the spendhbd system? Maybe take it up with @starkerz if you have a problem with it, rather than the one guy who seems to wanna make sure the reward pool isn't being exploited through it.

I don't really know the main source of the money. Probably from votes on posts. I don't know. Maybe they can answer this question.

Rewards from posts come from the reward pool, so that's exploitation of the hive community

disgusting
