What you must understand that none of them are new! Most of them are as old as hive. However as opposed to thinking about hive as their home, like you abs I believe, they think about hive as a place to make money!
Well many problems arise from that mindset.
The problem for me is not the "making money", that's part of the whole idea. It's the how - and if they're on hive for so long, they probably do know that farming with LQ content is hurting the community. But I'm not here long enough to know who knows and who doesn't. And if I put myself into others shoes, if it wasn't for a certain person banging the netiquette into my head constantly for weeks, I probably still wouldn't know.
Yes they know.
They are farming hive at your expense and mine. This is simply because the reward pool is common.
Yes, "how" is the main problem. I take a lot of offense on that. I pledge to the community to stop this abuse immediately.
