@blacklist
Version 1.0.0.1
The Steemit Extortion @Blacklist uses a range of metrics to determine who's a repeat offender of plagiarism, hate speech, bullying, ongoing power-abuse and so on, and then prove that they can be the bigger bullies. The Blacklist is computer-generated and is updated irregularly to make sure bad behaving accounts get a quick flag so that other upvote-bots can avoid upvoting the blacklisted accounts and simply skip to the next post. The @blacklist-project is a much wider and further stretching self-assigned and self-justifying authority than any of the singular up or downvoting guilds currently running on Steemit Inc (a centralized entity), it is also complimentary to current projects in the same genre which are to keep the steem-blockchain unattractive for scammers, spammers and miserable trolls who are caught bullying (like it does) or go after steemians in a power-abusive behaviour (like it does, concurrently with SteemCleaners) and so forth and so on.
The @blacklist account is a very serious project who aim to grow over the years with supporting bots and guilds respecting the black flag as the black flag is computer-generated by a popular opinion from a wide range of always active members of the community who have assigned themselves as the jackboots of Steemit, regardless of the claims of Steem being decentralized.
There are one way (and their grammar sucks) to get off the blacklist once you are on it, and that is to change your behavior from evil to good (though we can't be held to the same standards) over your next 40 posts (gasp!). Once you have reached that number you must send 40 STEEM extortion fee to the @blacklist account with "REVIEW" in the memo. Someone from our staff will then manually look at your blog, since we didn't bother when slamming you and beating your account into oblivion, within the next 24-48 hours and remove you from the extortion list if your account now qualifies for it.
The Extortion Blacklist contains between 200-500 accounts at any given time. The list grows or shrinks depending on user behavior (1) and user-reaction (2).
Before I get slammed for plagiarism, this is satire and complies with all known laws (to me anyway.)
