RE: Sneaky Ninja Blacklist Update

in #steemit6 years ago

Thank you for the detailed response.

Whilst i understand your view with regards to @grumpycat, and agree that he needs more help with flagging abuse

this worthless cat is taking rewards from innocent people

I feel this would not happen if you changed your policy to 3.5 days.

We have 100s of new users each day, who cannot possibly expect to see the previous warnings issued.

The way to help these innocent people would be to stop them from making a bid which could lead to a flag.

It is for this reason that I asked, and think you (and all other bots out of the 3.5 range) reconsider your policy.

Thanks

Asher

The minute that we allow ourselves to bend our wills to a tyrant like him, we are opening the gateway for others that have a lot of money to come here and make any ridiculous set of demands they wish. Anything.

I have another plan that does not involve giving up anyone's freedom or living in fear.

Ok. I was told the same by another bot owner before they made the change.

I look forward to your alternative plan.

So is it in your view OK for grumpycat to downvote what it considers non valuable content and at the same time reward itself by over $90 by spamming the post with that stupid cat image and a dumb explanation?

No I did not say that.

Please re-read the thread.

I have reread this thread and it seems to me that you and that infernal cat have decided that 3.5 days is the cut off for using the bots?
Who died and made grumpy cat god of steemit?
It downvoted this post which was a celebration of this platform and pocketed over $90 in the process.

What is/was a great post about the brilliance of steemit and steemians has left a very bad taste in my mouth.
I'm sorry but you seem like an apologist for it's behaviour.
We already have an excellent team in @steemcleaners who I support. You cannot move the goal posts during a game without a consensus and you have not got that based on the comments in this thread. Minnows are screwed every which way by some whales.
This the first downvote I have ever got on steemit and I am super pissed off..
I've muted that moggy because it is just offensive.
There are plenty of scammers on this site. You know who they are. Delegate some sp to @steemcleaners at least they have some rules.

you and that infernal cat have decided that 3.5 days is the cut off for using the bots

Excuse me, but where do I say that I have decided that, or decided anything?

I am here to suggest that this bot helps the new/existing members that may have not seen the 'ruling' (which was not at all made by me) and are being punished.

This bot is not being punished, it's the 'innocent' accounts. I am here for them, nothing else.

"I feel this would not happen if you changed your policy to 3.5 days."

Your quote. That reads as encouragement of this cats behavior.
Remember the crab bucket?

Will you be at steemfest3? texting is an inexact communication medium. Maybe you feel you are being misunderstood?
