RE: Honey Pots are coming! Get ready to help fight spam and earn doing so!

It will operate on the blockchain looking specifically at posts we generate automatically. If I make a post and say "DO NOT COMMENT ON THIS POST" and you see 10 comments "Nice post" "Wow awesome". those are spam bots just trying to earn rewards from commenting useless crap! I don't see how it is hard to monitor the blockchain for a post the system created and see if someone violates the post's instructions IE DO NOT COMMENT ON THIS POST.. Condenser app has no bearing on how this will work and is just an interface (wallet) to the blockchain.

Alright then. I’m going to follow this, I’m too interested to see how that will function. Especially without integration by all witness, this is a decentralised ledger after all.

The witnesses have nothing to do with creating a post and monitoring if someone commented on it. The process is the same as embedding an email like [email protected] anywhere on the internet you can then monitoring WHO sends to it ;)

Send an email there and you get on my email blacklist. I didn't need a witness to do that.. Watch i'll get emails to that account now and they'll get blacklisted..

If you have any input we are still designing this out and need the feedback! Thanks for sharing!
