@Smartsteem by so doing took a noble decision.
No they stopped maintaining it, so it was pointless to have a stale list.
Do you still run a bid bot? If not, why do you still have people like @Majes.tytyty on your list? Malice is the only answer that comes into my head.
My blacklist was not about my bid bot, my blacklist was because I spend a huge amount of time finding and fighting abuse.
I spend every day here fighting spam and abuse. That never changed if I ran a blacklist or not.
You call the voice of genuine community members "spammers"? Is this different from Sun who calls the elected witnesses " hackers"? Well, it is your blacklist the same way Steemit is Sun's you guys can do anything you like with it. Regards sir.
He was put on the list for a legitimate reason (bid bot abuse and low effort posts). Everyone added is for a legitimate reason. I review requests for removal but I only have so much time and resources doing this by myself without funding or help.
Please kindly note that I have nothing against your blacklist except from the position that erstwhile bot abusers ought not to still be there by now.
I can only imagine how tiring it could be for you doing all those Herculean task. It is why I would suggest that perhaps you should devise a standard procedure for those seeking a review of their place on your blacklist. It could be paying a review fee or burning an amount of Steem or Hive as the case maybe. If your review still shows that the user should remain on the blacklist with strong reasons then critics will go to sleep. The review fee can help cover costs and other things. It can even build an economy around your blacklist.
That said, please refresh your blacklist on the Hive blockchain. There will be no point pouring an old wine into an old skin. Regards sir.
