If a post has been flagged by any of the following accounts, we will reject the bid as if it was on our blacklist.

@spaminator
@cheetah
@steemcleaners
@mack-bot

If you feel you were flagged by mistake, work that out before submitting a bid. We will not refund anything on our blacklist or flagged by SteemCleaners.

This is a great initiative to guard 100% transparency in the platform.
Keep it up.

I don't understand ANY of this Steemit whale stuff. How can you guys blacklist, or down vote ? What is submitting a bid ? Does a down vote button appear for you when you have x amount of Steempower ? I am wanting to put some original real estate flipping content here, but it seems I have a lot of studying to do in order to figure this stuff out.......Great, more stuff for me to research. smh. lol

We can deny voting if someone is a scammer or spammer. A downvote is an upvote, but in the opposite direction.

Sending 3 SBD to @buildawhale with the post you want to promote in the memo is "submitting a bid". For new users our smaller @ipromote bot is likely better suited as it is only 0.500 SBD minimum bid.

You can vote with 0.50 Steem power, but to be able select 0-100% how strong your vote is, you need about 480 Steem power than you can cast smaller votes more often.

How much do I need to bid?
Is 2.500 SBD is Okay?

3 SBD is our minimum bid for @buildawhale, you can use 0.50 SBD with iPromote if you want a smaller bid.

@themarkymark Thank you, I read the first post of @buildawhale the minimum bid is 2.500 SBD. By the way thank you.

Hi mark, I voted for you by the way, as you do excellent work on here, anyway, is it allowed to use both buildawhale & ipromote on a single post? asking as I do not want to fall foul of rules, before doing something. Thanks in advance.

Thanks, and yes.

I love you post

Good! I am new here, spent 10 hours writing 2 blog posts, made nothing, while spammers throw 2 words on a page and hit publish, then use bots to earn from it. Its disgraceful. Why this platform tolerates spammers I don't know. On Google+ we terminate their accounts, end of story.

There are no cops or authorities that have that power. Welcome to the dark side of decentralization where the community has to police itself, but it means sacrificing rewards.

Its good many of the larger accounts here are willing to set boundaries on what is acceptable, and holding those to account who don't act in good faith.

Please return my funds or I will file a complaint with the proper authorities.

You were added to the blacklist for a reason. You are due to make much undue rewards for the spam you propogated on the blockchain of which I disagree.

You received a "slap on the wrist" so I would refrain from pursuing this further. Nothing grinds my gears more than someone making a profit from low effort spam. It's a slap I the face to every Steem user busting their ass to add value to the blockchain.

I respect @Patrice's decision to not remove the rewards on your 29 spam posts from the last 3 days and afford you the opportunity to reform. I hope you will make good of it.

They are definitively not low effort or spam posts - quite expensive and a lot of work actually. They might be in the top 1% of all posts with respect to effort.

How do you figure? Let's recap the content of one of said posts in steemd.

Do you really mean to tell me that this post "might be in the top 1% of all posts with respect to effort."?

You bought a number of TLDs in an effort to "help filter the buyers so they are not bought up by the squatters and filled with spam.". It's quite ironic that you say this, turn around, and do the very thing you claim you were trying to prevent(spam).

Let's put this in perspective. You bought a number of TLDs with Steem in the name. You create a post offering these domains for sale under the pretense of preventing spam. You then proceed to spam the blockchain and profit from said spam.

Now, you are attempting to defend your actions which tells me you are unapologetic about what you have done. I doesn't take much to register and redirect a domain so I am not sure where you are getting this notion of effort.

It cost about $20 and took about 15 minutes to set the name and post up. Most posts don't have this much effort put into them.

I'd be glad to discuss this offline where we can have a more fluid discussion. I am on both Discord and Steemit Chat if interested.

This current post was much less effort than mine it is already at $113.

Finding and identifying spammers is quite a bit of work. I do a lot of research into it and just don't pull names out of a hat.

Pretty sure it took far more work than posting this:

Or begging for followers/votes in exchange for "gifting" them 0.001 Steem. Not to mention the massive amount of memo spam you do.

Tell the authorities I said hi.

It is actually at about 0.005 SBD per follower I will send out. It would be over 0.010 SBD per follower I would be sending them if it wasn't for the down-vote spam that my post received.

Wait. It wasn't just the down-vote spam, it was my funds being stolen from me by buildawhale, also. So, it should actually be closer to around 0.015 SBD I would have been able to send out.

Who are these proper authorities you so speak of? And what are you going to tell them?

The money that you get for not upvoting blacklisted accounts should be donated to one of those projects.

This is already happening. Not only that but the owner of buildawhale has donated hundreds of his own money to said projects.

They already been....... Up.

Hello friends.
your account is very good, will you help me? I really hope my account like your account?

Originawork

what is this ? i still new to this

If you are flagged by them, you are likely doing something wrong. If not, it's nothing to worry about.

How does an account qualify to be a member of the buildawhale project

Thank you for doing this! It gives a bit more to the people who actually try to make Steemit a place worth it, and not just a spam field of copypasta from other websites. Good job!

Alright. Awesome initiative guys. Only those that put in the required effort to produce a high quality article should be successful here. Just my perspective but that's only fair here.

Well I have even more learning to do. I just keep seeing powerful group efforts everywhere. Been trying to rally improv friends to join and work together. But looks like others understand that principle well. Will have to surf your site and learn. Til then hope it's ok if i include some of your posts in my weekly curation magazine. All the best!

Understand :) Flagged post putting down reputation?

What a nice whale :P
