I apologize this has gotten far too negative which is my fault. I'll consider it closed and move on. Thank you everyone that supports me and sorry to those that don't like me. But, reflect on what happened here so lessons are learned and the platform improves for it.
Bunnypuncher gets knocked out for the count by @adm I hope they got what they wanted.
This down vote stuff has me a bit irritated at the moment since I don't feel like I should be on a blacklist. I try and do good for the community and having a bot blacklist me just makes me aggravated. However, that isn't the communities fault so I'll do my contest like normal for now. I of course adore my followers and friends on Steemit nothing against you guys.

Suggested Topic
What a negative mess I have created I shouldn't have posted this as a topic. Such a shame to end on a negative note I hadn't ever intend this as I was caught off guard. I regret this whole mess of a post that I created before thinking things out more clearly. I was in a bad mood and should have stayed away from the keyboard.
Bunnypuncher quits Steemit and the price skyrockets the irony :)
@bunnypuncher i'd also post the user who owns that bot, grittenald is the person, not sure if you saw on adm's posts.. what you did wasn't bad to warrant being blacklisted.. and you shouldn't have to pay a thing...

I'm sure english isn't your native language. I'm not sure I'm following what you are saying. And I don't know who they are and they haven't told me anything as far as I know. It isn't exactly hard to find me. I'm right here they can post the issue if they want and I'd be happy to work with them and change things up after all I'm not a script or a bot but a person. I'm flexible and out to work with others to create a nice fun contest environment where everyone wins. If that isn't what they (who ever they are) doesn't like well then not much to done here and I move on. Repetitive contest is now over and no more winners or topics will ever be discussed by me.
It would have been very easy to say on a post or two of mine something like:
Hey bunny your posts are kind of repetitive (even if you have different winners and topics everyday) could you change XYZ. Like use a green, red, and purple bunny on different day. I would have done that. Or even hey everyday is a bit much only do every other day or every three days. I would have discussed it politely and worked to comply with the community. But that wasn't ever done so this is the result. In my opinion everyone loses but what does one bunny know anyway.

"They" should come and discuss the abuse they heap on to others based on their (whoever they are) views. But I know that isn't going to happen they used this nothing drone account to speak for them if that is in fact what this idiot is doing as I can barely tell what they are talking about. So a year of contests, goodwill, generosity, gifts, kindness toward others is not quality in their eyes. That is about as much of a jerk as one person could be toward another's persons work without the dignity to tell them with a genuine account as they should be ashamed of themselves. Well you can hide behind this drone and @adm. You and your group of steemit defenders @Steemcleaners will need to live with having killed this bunny and his contest. Maybe I didn't have great content but I was a decent person to contribute to the blockchain the way I did helping and giving to others and the thanks you bestow upon me is down votes and ridicule. That hurts me and the blockchain. This could have ended much differently with everyone winning and happy to be a part of this community but I wasn't worthy of a comment to change whatever bothered you. So this negativity is what you get back from me for your lack of consideration.

Yep they are probably laughing their asses off at my expense I bet. While counting the Steem they get for downvoting in the last 12 hour window they steal from the whole block chain. Them downvoting this way nets them profit they drain from the block chain that most don't know about. Talk about add insult to injury. Well the only offense I have left is I hope karma bite them in the ass one day for doing this to people. They are going to ruin that which they profit off by doing this.

What do I think? Bots have a purpose yet many abuse them, this causes problems for people that get caught in the conflict. Many of which will not understand why or have any knowledge as to their progression into the line of fire. There are so many unspoken rules and those with he power and intention to enforce the rules do not wish to be known as that individual.
hypothetical
Bestow me the power and I’ll be the polite d00k13sanders 😉 I would just need the selections not be mine to curate but I will be glad to explain why thus like your situation working off a flagging bot. It’s the explanation, no comments and no posts means no possible incoming downvote. They are afraid of their own game, but why is it that bad to wander around with negative rep? Sure I have worked hard to get here but with a duty to uphold some agenda with rules education to the abusers will also subdue those who have not yet abused.
end of hypothetical
my post explains it well - Word of the day “Comments” - we are seeing what would be called a historically accurate audience. For longer then not the audience of any performance could abuse the performers. It was up to the performers to subdue the audience well enough to be able to finish in the first place. Yet with this anonymous situation it’s like having no idea what they are feeling to know to switch up your performance. Shakespeare had to strategically stitch comedy with drama not only for the mood of the play but also keep the audience from getting to bored and throwing food. Meanwhile you have the upper echelon coming not only to watch the performers but the reactions of the peasants. So I bet the perpetrators will read every comment on your posts possibly going to be affected.

I really would never want anything like this to happen and would have worked to prevent. I'm regretting this has gone too negative already. I should just stop the contest and let it go. Acting like I am is bad for the platform and isn't good for anyone. I'm not even liking it myself. However, I hate being walked all over too and I don't think I was given a fair chance to fix this. And I'm not the only one. Many others have posted their experiences also here on this post and on others. I just happened to be the largest one so have the duty to point it out. The community can decide I'm wrong and have been adding no value my contest and posts are crap (that is their right). If everyone thinks that way I'll go away and reflect that I need to improve. But the feedback I have gotten from many people is they are happy to win my contest, read and comment on the daily topics, and like what I'm doing. I don't usually generate negative feedback and I would guess most would say I'm a decent person not some out for himself asshole.
I'm using the bot profit to give to smaller accounts. Bots don't make high returns any more if people think I'm getting rich well they just need to do the math to figure out I'm more like Robin Hood than an evil banker.

No you never did get a fair chance, largely that’s the issue with bots. Then looking at the fact of the solution being 40 good posts before a payment will be accepted, that’s just extortion in the name of good. With no ability to veto its criminal. I was pleased to comment, definitely intrigued enough to try my own giveaway. Why? I seen it as a positive! What’s the point of a post if it isn’t both about the content and comments alike? Look at the comments, whether or not it’s paid advertising people show interest and get rewarded with more then just entertainment.
I have always thought Steemit is about the interaction not just the specifics of the quality of the post. If we want to play your lottery let us play your lottery!
Now sure you may have gotten carried away but this backlash is ridiculous, why not define the line for you to walk and all is fair?
I think the big argument of who gets rich is really now looking at the whales and punishing the users still. Yet it’s all considered rewards pool rape?

I like bots that down vote scammers and abusers, but when they down vote the good people of steemit they make a huge mistake! I have also been downvotet by bots for giving back to the community, its not fun, and if they continue to down vote good people on this platform they will for sure kill this platform, people will leave steemit if they get to many down votes, and that will kill the whole steemit ecosystem.

There are a lot of others that have had contests and not being flagged, like @onebitnews (even tho they have stopped, but its not because of flagging) and I also have contest going on all the time, atleast i try to have contest ongoing all the time. @norgesarkaden had only contests, but he havent been on steemit for some months now, not sure why..

Hi @bunnypuncher all these negative votes come for a group of users who think that giving negative feedback to those who invested heavily sum of steemdollar in bots to upload their ad will help steemit to stabilize the platform and thus be able to last longer.
But if you analyze these users who give negative feedback are those who abuse more of the voting bots, then with what moral they give the negative votes.
They claim that their publications are repetitive and you do not publish quality content for this reason they put you on the blacklist. From time to time, you can post quality content can talk about your dissatisfaction with negative comments, but a comprehensive and detailed publication.
I do not agree with these negative votes since investing in bots nowadays is not profitable because it brings losses and an unscrupulous user who gives him downvote will force him to stop doing his contest.
You have a great option, you can do your contest every 2 days and so the day you do not do the contest publishes something about what you like to do, your hobby, etc.

This has been running for almost a year without any down votes. In fact this negative $21 dollar vote was the biggest non bid bot vote I ever got. It’s just ashame it wasn’t an upvote for a change.

I read the post, and I saw this so called blacklist says you have to behave 40 posts and then send 40 steem.. sorry but this sounds really fishy to me! I would try to find out more about that blacklist account first.. I mean you're giving away prizes, not robbing people...
I personally feel downvoting without letting people know why is not fair.. sometimes people don't even know they are doing something wrong that doesn't suit the platform well.. only way to change this is by giving them notice of this, so they can see what they will do with that..
Again, the amount they ask you to send to get of the list sounds fishy, I don't believe steemcleaners works like that either..
Good luck!

I was hoping to spread bpclan with a community vote bot I was programming. It was going to help spread votes to minnows in vote pools (kinda like steembasic income) but for bunnypuncher followers. No point in finishing that code as I'm sure it too would be considered spam by Steemcleaners and @adm. Any value added would be wiped away by this crap so why bother to make a community that would be destroyed by this type of cowardly attack to minnows.

There are People with flag/downvote bots who would try to damage a number of independent users and communities of users for various reasons. From breaking the rules, through breaking unspoken rules, and doing stuff they believe should go agains rules to straight out wrongthink and being "problematic", having wrong opinion on a single subject. I don't think you can do anything about it unless you quit the platform all together, but that means you let them win.

I will certainly feel bad if I am downvoted or flagged for reason I do not know. Much that there is no avenue to reach out to those who did such act.
I think downvoting or flagging should not be done by bots as bots can not rationalize. For humans, there should be a tool or mechanism for downvoters or flaggers to put their reasons or comments as to why they are doing such before the action finally takes place. It is something like a required field that you can not proceed to the next step until the field is filled up. Next to that, there should be an avenue for downvoted or flagged users to veto or at least clarify themselves.
This downvoting or flagging without notice or venue to discuss further is majority's concern. Steemit is decentralized but I hope the witnesses would give this a considerable thought.
You need not stop the contest for now. I suggest you still run it for few days or on alternate days and see how it goes.

This flag war has made some, who are not small like most, desist from remaining on the platform. So I'm sorry to say it's not worth fighting them for. The saddest thing is that these actions do not really represent justice, just as there are people looting the platform.

Es lamentable lo que te está pasando, y te entiendo perfectamente, he sido marcada con banderas rojas varias veces por bots, los cuales no tenían ni una semana de creados en steemit, no han trabajado ni hecho una publicación y se creen con derecho a interferir en tu trabajo con una bandera roja, pero eso es una pequeña prueba que tenemos que superar, da un poco de rabia, pero sabemos que eso no vale la pena, tenemos que seguir adelante y pasar los obstáculos que estén atravesados en nuestro camino, en la perseverancia está el éxito, por un voto negativo recibes muchos positivos que te apoyan. Un fuerte y cariñoso abrazo

A pity what they are doing, I hope you do not have to stop the contest, it would be a big loss for steemit. As I said a long time ago, this contest raises the morale of many, is a daily gift, a daily possibility of earning SBD. But in these times of crisis, where many are driven away by prices.

It is a shame but I'm not going to get into a flag war for trying to give away SBD. I'll stop spamming which I admit I didn't recognize I was in fact doing. I had too many of the higher posts and that isn't right so I'll stop doing it completely contests are over. Minnows lose out on any help I would have provide. Nice guys finish last is put to the test and proven correct.

Bueno eso de los botos bajos es por la misma persona de se trata de los bots anonimos.. seguramente algunas personas ya no le esta gustando tu contenido y deja de votar o de seguirte no solo se trata de los bots anonimos son las mismas persona...
Si bunnypuncher deten esos obsequios por 1 o 2 meses para que vuelvan persona alomejor no le gusta tu contenido de eso de los obsequio y se van porque le molesta..
Mi opinion es que dejes de dar esos obsequios para que puedan volver las personas seguro eso de los obsequios le hace mal a esas personas y pues se van hasta no volver ES SOLO MI OPINION.

It seems to me in very bad taste that this is happening, that you are receiving those negative votes without any reason and that they hurt you when you want to help the community of Steemit to feel supported. I hope all this is solved soon and you can return to your competitions with all normality.

Hello my friend. It seems you are a victim of flag abuse. I suggest you look into this discord server and raise your situation there. I am not sure, but whenever a broader declaration to resist flag abuse in general is made, the-resistance tends to ignore the suggestion - perhaps there are members that are afraid to tackle the real culprits on the platform, or they may agree with their abuses. You can still try though. Abuse like this can only be combatted by working together.

I went to the discord sever and got basically laughed at. I'm not gonna do it again. I'm doing what I can to make the issue visible. But if this is the thanks I get for helping others and giving newer accounts SBD and trying to engage them in daily topics of conversation then I'm just done with giveaways.

Yes - I have seen the politics inside that server is not completely transparent. If your contest went against the business interests of the sociopaths who also have the support of a lot of people - the only way to proceed to is to surrender or organise (raising the issue visibility is a start).

To be fair I only went one time to one channel which didn't go well. And admittedly I wasn't much for working it out. I was polite asked about @adm and such which didn't go well but maybe I was in the wrong channel or talking to wrong guys on the server. I dunno I wasn't much in the mood to hunt down the down voter across the whole platform at the time.

A bot is a script that does automated actions on Steemit. In this case a bot (computer program) scans posts for "bad ones" and my contest was deemed evil. The bot then downvoted two of my posts for $20 dollars each. Which means those down votes caused me to lose $42 dollars I would have got.

I personally feel downvoting without letting people know why is not fair.. sometimes people don't even know they are doing something wrong that doesn't suit the platform well.. only way to change this is by giving them notice of this, so they can see what they will do with that..
Again, the amount they ask you to send to get of the list sounds fishy, I don't believe steemcleaners works like that either.

There is always a human being behind the operation. a bot is simply code and it is setup to do a certain thing, by a human being.

First, thank you @bunnypuncher for picking me as random winner on this giveaway event and sending the prize as promised. It means a lot for tiny account like me.
Second, upvote and downvote are implemented to keep balance on the system. As for your case I guess that your contest post, which is pre-formated copy and paste content, categorized by the downvoter as spamming the system. Well your giveaway post entered the trending content while other pre-formated post from bot/ daily report content doesn't attract as many attention as yours.
You can change the format of your giveaway so it doesn't call spam. Need to be more creative.
