Classic example of bid bot abuse on Steem. @therealwolf has been made aware and is looking into it. Request review, unvote from @curatorhulk @ngc @imacryptorick @theycallmedan IMHO that is the best way to stop this sort of thing. There are more of these on his blog. Guy has been flying under the radar. Thanks to @leoumesh for the good report! #share2steem #abuse #cleansteem #steemflagrewards #steem #steemit

I'm a bit confused... Why was there an upvote from your account there in the first place?

Posted using Partiko Android

I was selling votes to whitelisted users on @smartsteem, sadly sometimes abusers manage to get on it, and then buy excessive votes on posts that really didn't earn it.

Understandable :)

I ask that you all please review your sold votes on the referenced content.

Sorry, didn't notice this mention in time

What is the problem with my behavior?

If you don't know, you should not be using bid bots.

How is using bid bots abusing bid bots ... ?

Nobody said that. It's not using bid bots. It's HOW you are using them that is inappropriate.

We need to make examples out of this sort of behavior. It is only when users lose money for this crap that we can hope for it to stop.

Please, take the lesson from this and NEVER do that again. We will be keeping a close eye on you.

Keep usage reasonable. If you write a 1500+ word post with an interesting message, you can spend more on bid bots than for a 30 word post that took 3 minutes to write. Proof of brain is still proof of work ... with the brain
