bid bot misuse, @steemflagrewards
Then HF21 happened and it all changed, the bingo hall grew still, the offers remained but few dared to take them.
Please don't buy votes, STEEM is trying to recover from what is once was. Help us make it great again.

I didn't bid on on anything. What I did do was provide some of MY steem, that I earned or purchased to a curation pool. In return, I get votes from the pool.
Now, if you are saying that by creating good content, and trying to get it noticed by investing MY steem is wrong, then I guess I am wrong. That is fine. I will just turn off @steempress on my blog and be gone.

Since HF21 this is severely frowned upon. There's nothing wrong with your content, but ask yourself.. 'is there anywhere else I can get a 100% return in 7 days?'
If your content is good it will be noticed and up-voted by the community and the curation groups. I for one look for the good stuff and try and get people @curie votes.
Wouldn't you prefer that than what just happened?
You won't get a cent from Facebook, that's a given.

Are you kidding? @tipu and @minnowbooster are the exact same thing from what I can tell.

They are still vote buying services amongst other things. There are people here actively looking for vote buyers to down-vote.
It would have been someone else that would have caught this if not me.
Can you remember Trending full of content that was paid for, now it's organic.
If you want your content on Trending and want to pay for it to be there, then decline rewards, nobody will bother you.
It's this that caught my eye.
Why do I do this?
Because I'm a largish stakeholder and don't want the platform to revert back to it's old image of, 'Trending is for paid votes'
I can see your not being an arsehole about all this like some of them are. You don't need to leave.. join us in making this place better.

When you say "decline rewards" are you meaning declining rewards for the vote I promote it with, or all rewards, to include those who visit and vote on it? If the first, I can see that, same thing basically as paying to promote on anohter platform. You pay in hopes those that see it will reward you.
If my thinking is wrong, please..correct me.

I don't know if you use Steemit or Steempeak. If the former its when you post in the advanced settings at the bottom of the page.
Yes, it's like advertising on Twitter or Facebook.

But wouldn't declining payouts using this method stop rewards for individual user votes from those actually viewing the content and upvoting it?

As the man says, the mood in Steem have moved away from buying votes. That reduces what others can make. I know some of the vote sellers distribute what they get, but isn't it better to have people voting up your posts because they like them? There are curation projects that can get you nice votes if you get spotted.
Steem will always be the wild west and anything goes, but we get to use our stakes to influence things. There is nothing else out there offering the same freedom and potential for anyone to earn. It's just better to work with the community. It's small for now, but has potential if we work together.

Like I said, I can't win for losing and don't understand enough about how steem works to get any traction. I spend an enormous amount of time creating my content. I think if you look at some of it, you will see it is good quality. However, during my shortime on Steemit, I have been accussed of spam because I was creating and commenting too much. When I stopped doing it so much I was accused of not being a productive member of the community.
Now I am being accused of buying votes and using bots, all the while being downvoted by the same circle jerk type bots I am accused of using.
Not sure it is worth it. I just want my content to be seen, find a community of interest and maybe build up some steem. But seems the "Proof of Brain" is more about memes and cute cat photos.

It's up to you of course. It can be hard to build a following on Steem. I have done it through masses of commenting, but then I enjoy that. You can 'promote' a post by buying votes, but it is expected that you will decline the rewards to show you are not doing that just for profit. It would cost you a bit to get on trending and even that does not guarantee getting much engagement as most people don't look at it. Maybe the new communities feature will help bring people together.
Steem is definitely not about memes and cats, for now, but there are cliques who just support each other. I do my best to seek out good content and support it. I have the @tenkminnows project that votes up small accounts, but I don't have enough Steem to make a huge difference. I just think we have to support the little guys of we want them to stick around, but also have to deal with the 'leeches'. See my latest post for examples of those.
It's all a game and enjoy playing.

I thought that is what @tipu and @minnowbooster was. I was under the impression I wasn't just buying a vote, but some of the purchase was going into the curation pool, containing only approved curators who use and follow community wide blacklists.
So, I understand what you are saying...I think. If buying votes, it is considered foul to accept rewards. If you don;t accept rewards then you are fine. Correct?
If so, I guess I will try that and see what happens. I am sure eventually another whale or downvote bot will come along and slam me for that too for their own personal agenda, but I guess it is what it is.
I'll think about it. I hate leaving because I do enjoy it much more than the normal cesspool of objectification that is social media.

I'm sure some of these projects have good intentions, but we each have our own ideas about what is good. I would hope you would not get flagged if you are not buying votes, but the are some rogue accounts who can leak out regardless. That's part of the freedom of Steem.

I imagine some are doing what they think is right, but when you get downvoted just because of who votes for you(not a purchased vote) or comments, that’s heavy handed and not good and maybe worse.

Yes they did. If they are going to come onto my blog and spam it with their propaganda, which also feeds a blog that is not on #Steemit, then yes. Not sure why it is anyone's business if I invest my SP out to others for use and they vote on my post for doing so.
No problem, I'm just a shit minnow, who creates this content because I enjoy it and hoping others will to. I'll just take my focus back to Facebook and other social media.

@joshman, sorry, I guess my ignorance on the guts of how steem really works to understand this. It is not my intent to put lipstick on anything.
Hey, but at least the two of you made a comment when you downvoted. Even though one of the comments looks like a "bot" comment.

Yep, understood. YOu can't buy bidbots or votes. You can't be a part of a voting circle, circle of friends or any other voting exchange. No circle jerks, no pats on the back, no quid pro quo, favors, handshakes or blood oathes....unless your a whale who posts memes all day long and then it is ok.
Never received a dislike or negative comment for paying to promote a post on other social media. In fact, the opposite has been experienced. I get more positive engagement, meet new people and provide information to people who might not otherwise see it. So I'm going to leave Steem and focusing on refreshing and building the communities I have other places. I just don;t understand enough about how steem works to get along here. I create too much content I am accused of spam, I create too little and I am accused of not being a productive member of the community. I get told I can't promote my posts, or those of others, all the while those with SP can do as they please.
Doesn't sound very decentralized to me. Peace out.
