Could not agree more. 'Vote buying' is a potentially problematic practice, when it doesn't contribute sufficient value. But then so is any sort of voting that doesn't relate to sufficient value. It is all subjective and those of us who believe that steemsports is adding value express our opinion by voting for it. Half the time or more I don't even bother to vote on the games so they aren't "buying" my vote, it is freely given based on my view of the value they bring, regardless of whether or not there is a vote-buying component. In their particular case, I happen to believe that even the vote-buying itself adds value because the way it is structured and the manner in which it is participatory and makes it a useful service for both entertainment and redistribution. I respect that @beanz may disagree.
