RE: What's with all the new DownVote Bots?

in #life6 years ago

This all came about because one person was salty and getting blacklisted for spam and plagiarising. They decided that it was in their heads that steemcleaners and abuse-reports that are the spammers and started this juvenile campaign.
So the person setup 'steemit defence league' and paid people to create accounts for him and is using them to downvote many people randomly. If you have gotten downvoted by various acounts, report the names to @guiltyparties who is compiling a list. Those accounts are having their 15sp delegation removed as a consequence.

cool thanks for the information, glad they have been stopped. Doesn't really matter for me where i am at now, but could really be a disaster for people new to the platform. Hope teh weekend goes well!! If you ever have important stuff you want me to resteem/upvote to help you find your audience feel free to message me "TheFatKat" on discord.

Yeah same, it really has zero impact on me now which is nice, but it could certainly chase away new users.. and our retention rate is already horrible. Thanks for the resteem/upvote offer, I will keep that in mind :)
