RE: Some Whales are Abusing their Power with Downvotes

in #steemit9 years ago (edited)

....as said if it was from a confirmed trusted member I wouldn't make such a deal of it...
We are talking about a one 1 week account (Created 2016-07-24T08:19:12 - https://steemd.com/@miketr ) that are asking for votes/money without even an introduceyourself post where he could give a basic id proof of his self!

Sort:  

Ah so the unwritten rule is that a person must present themselves before king's court to introduce himself. It's honestly crap and it's been proven that some of these introductions are just made up.

I'd much rather see him slowly prove himself through his actions over time which he has been doing. And he isn't asking for money out of pocket. He's just paying from his balance that he's put in himself (because up until round 4 it never made money which it was close to doing until you squashed it). And I don't think you get the fee, t's not like some nigeria scam thing where people have to pay up front to get paid. He's just saying that he will use 10% for admin fees.

He's been giving away 0.02 SD to each person that voted and commented, but if the value goes up then he'll up the amount.

I just saw yesterday some giving a Solar coins for voting and commenting with an address. A new person but I took the high risk (NOT!)of voting and commenting, and sure enough 12 hours later the person sent me some solar coin.

I think when advertisers start coming on here there will be a ton of creative ways people will be pulling people to their posts with SD$ or other means. And there is nothing wrong with this. But in the case someone does abuse users then we can go after them but pre judging all new users as potential scammers is quite the elitist view steam power has bestowed on you.
