I think you have a little misunderstanding regarding berniesnaders?- He has a group of accounts(includingrandowhle) with over 1ML SP, which is used for nothing more than manipulating the Steem Community- to get more SP for him(whoever or whatever he is). He is extremely crafty with his bot army (some of them play devils advocate, some are more reasonable...but they all have the same purpose, which is to confuse and deceive). Any good blogger who dares repeatedly make it legitimately into trending (for example @haejin with his excellent and FREE technical analysis of crytpocurrencies, earning himover 8k followers in just a few months), will be met with the bernie bot army, accusing of rewardpool rape(very fear mongering language). @lukestokes- you are a witness? I am not 100% sure the implications/responsibilities of being a witness, but I implore you to do a little more investigating into the extreme manipulation taking place right in front of even the witnesses faces by Bernie and his randowhle bot army (misspellings are intentional, so as not to attract the bot scripts). Do witness know or talk to each other?- they should. Because what they dont realize is that when this is happening (right under everyones noses), the best bloggers are the ones who earn the most heat, lose the most money, and then LEAVE Steem for less hostile pastures.
