Lmao see how they told you VP "costs" money and is designed to counter spam. What a load of bullshit. The "troll" you speak of in your above post who harasses and bullies everyone and their uncle on Steemit never paid one red cent for any of his Steem. He just "premined or ninja mined all of it". Shit loads of it.. and now uses that VP (voting power) to beat everyone over the head.. and then little ball washers like the person who "oh so kindly explained things to you" <-- who is probably a sock puppet of the bully might I add.. fail to tell you that the VP the bully/troll is using on everyone was FREE! He just printed it from thin air, and shit loads of it. He also has thousands upon thousands of accounts. He runs this entire platform. And sure you and me would have to pay a "cost" to buy VP (voting power).. but this head troll (who is actually Steemit Inc.) never paid one fucking cent.
Be careful who "kindly" "helps" you in your comments.. you have no idea how many sock puppets these people have, and every time someone tells the truth just like you did in your above post.. these "friendly helpers/witnesses/and anyone with their hand in the cookie jar" <-- twist the truth and crawl out of the wood work like little cockroaches and defend the insanity...
This place is all smoke and mirrors.. and they are a bunch of leftist control freaks.
Beware.
Oh here is the proof he was one of the first accounts ever... and that he "mined" all of his Steem which he uses on people like a weapon. Many people have been bought off by him, and or are just him under alias accounts, or his friends.. here is the screen shot from the blockchain..
The author behind @kawaiicrush spends every waking moment of his pathetic life thinking about @berniesanders. He claims @berniesanders has made over 11 million dollars in Steem and is INSANELY jealous he could never live such an amazing life. He's SO fucking pathetic he will make multiple posts and comments with ABSURD claims just to get the attention of his 8 pathetic followers who also have nothing better to do with their time than dream about @berniesanders and the life they will never live. How fucking pathetic can someone be, @kawaiicrush?

It doesn't cost money to downvote, it costs VP. I didn't say that VP costs money. And until HF21, it will cost VP that could otherwise be used to upvote yourself.
What are downvotes intended to prevent if not spam and plagiarism?
No, I'm a seperate human than @berniesanders. I don't always agree with them and IMO the downvotes mentioned in the root posts weren't completely justified. I have a personal website (shameless promo), and a lot of good posts (I think so at least), if I am a sock puppet then @berniesanders must be really dedicated.
Well he did need to pay for mining machines, and compete with Steemit and other miners. And whether the VP was paid for is irrelevant: there is still the cost of not self-voting.
That's good advice.
That just means he mined his account, as opposed to paying the account creation fee. Having a mined account doesn't mean you did any mining after the account creation, although @berniesanders did.

"VP" comes from purchasing Steem asshole. You know it and I know it. Either that or from getting delegations.
Kindly fuck off with your bullshit. I have had enough of you scum.
Here is proof for you @oldoneeye
This is from the Steem FAQ.
It says and I quote "Though not considered an investment, you can purchase STEEM tokens which can go up or down in value. You can power up these tokens into Steem Power, which grants more influence in the Steem platform."
So I want to stress the part that says "You can PURCHASE Steem tokens" <--- the operative word is "purchase" Steem tokens.. next I want to point out "You can power up these tokens into Steem Power, which grants more influence in the Steem platform." and I want to stress the part within which states "You can POWER UP these tokens" <--- This is where you get VP or "voting power" from.
So us as in average joes have to purchase VP, but whales who "mined" steem like Bernie Sanders just printed their Steem from thin air and never had to spend one red cent.. which created an uneven playing field, by which created pretty much two social classes on Steem out of the gate. The haves and the have nots. And the HAVES didn't even BUY what they have. And then to boot they (bernie and his sock puppets) abuse that VP by harassing everyone on Steem. Then his supporters who live in fear of his downvotes pretend all is well, and defend the shit, and give out disinformation to people because like I said before "their hand is in the cookie jar".

I hope this helps explain my view point @oldoneeye
ps I like your name.. really cool name choice man!

6 social media platforms and 72 Discord channels will all know about STEEM, well, those who don't already know, will.

As far as I can tell, all the flags you list above are @berniesanders and his bots. He has many more.
I believe your intended action is exactly what he desires from you. It seems to be his purpose to destroy Steem. Since he is closely allied to Stinc, that seems to be their purpose as well, despite their rhetoric.
Action is probative, words are rhetorical.
Again, thanks!

I actually believe that is the intention as well.
Steem need to remove the auto-hide. Being censored by other users who are triggered by truth, will equal the destruction of any platform.
As you said in your other comment though, they are all going to suffer from this somewhat. I like the idea of the 08 you mentioned (nodes). But 'Ripple', is very centralized isn't it?

Ripple is indeed not a decentralized currency. However blockchan simply inserts posts into that blockchain, essentially making a censorship resistant social platform out of the very financial ledger of banksters.
Not sure it's an effective long term solution, but it feels like poetry LOL

Indeed. We are also in blockchain infancy. The banksters had to go 'if you cant beat em join em' route. Now we get to be plagued with an arsenal of new folks peeking at 'blockchain' as soon as libre hits. Everyone will most likely lump up and equate 'blockchain' to 'FB/Libre'. And.. everyone will most likely believe FB when they say 'we are decentralized'.
Regardless, interesting times afoot!
