Totally feel you on this... I won't be participating in any of that. The first comments I got here were from people copying and pasting the same thing on other intro posts, and one from the same win $75 contest that I found your replies on. It left a bad taste in my mouth, as do all the posts about strategies to use curating and upvotes to maximize rewards and so on. I can easily ignore and avoid and mute all of that, I just hope people will keep it out of my comments for the most part. These same people go on about being against spam, but are somehow missing the fact that they basically ARE spam!
