Hey Steemians,
It started a few months ago when spaminator hit the first downvote on my post. I just neglect it for that time then again next day spamintor downvoted my another post, and this happened regularly. Then I go to the spaminator steemit page and ask why they are downvoting my post but they didn't reply to me at all. Then I ask them every day and they didn't reply.
I felt frustrated for every day seeing those downvotes, then I finally decided to leave steemit, but... but... when I post that "I'm leaving" lots of steemians are commented on my post that don't leave steemit. Then I finally decided I can't give up like this, then I again go to their post, discord channel, steem chat: help, general. steemit abuse and spaminator etc.
Finally, I got lots of reply from the spaminator that they removed me from the blacklist and not only me, but they also removed everyone's from the blacklist who reply on their post and they told us what we did wrong.
My only mistake is to use automation and clever bot and I feel guilty. I will never do this again.
Special Thanks for motivating me

Nice! A little explanation can go a long way!
I had a similar issue with another user downvoting my posts without giving a reason. I was upset at first, as I was proud of my purity (in almost two years on Steem, I never got a downvote... except for these on a few occasions). I'm not going to mention any names, you can check out my posts from the last weeks if you're curious.
However, this user seems to be running very low on power, as their downvote affected me by 0.00 steem. So I stopped worrying about it. Eventually they stopped after a handful downvotes, and I'm putting it all behind me.
Good thing that you managed to clear things up with spaminator. It would really suck if users were forced to leave Steem, because of this kind of destructive behavior.

Yup mine is resolved too! My issue involved trying to make an equivalent of a "sticky" or "pinned" comment on my DTube videos by upvoting them.

Hi @whatsontrend,
Piotr informed about your issues with @spaminator.
They are all bots, flagging ones. They normally do a nice work making spammers almost invisible. However sometimes their programming fails and here comes the Blood.
You did It right trying to contact them so they ( bot owners) get aware of the issue.
As a coder myself I know how difficult It is that things don't get messed up by your code bugs or inaccuracy. Nevertheless human supervision must be present by this reason.
Hope they are more active debugging their bots and taking their time to compensate damages as soon as possible.
I'm glad to see you've overcomed this situation on good mood. It's not easy sometimes
Keep on doing what you love to do....
It was nice to meet you.
My best wishes
Cheers

Dear @deathcross
Great comment buddy. The biggest problem with all steemit cleaners and downvoting bots is the fact, that there is almost no way you anyone could contact them.
And once you (for any reason) will end up on their radar, they will pursue after you no matter what. So it's enough to make one mistake to be punished by them over and over again.
I personally would rather have some extra spammers (which I can easily mute) instead of having some "police" (or perhaps we shall call it "warlords") making their own rules and sometimes targeting genuine and valuable users.
Are you a coder? What language? Do you code something related to blockchain? (just curious).
Yours
Piotr

Yeah we didn’t call the “police” at all but they raised as of it. As a decentralised network we cannot stop this. Maybe the new centralized-decentralised platform would sort this as it would be useless while the centralised part will deal with spam.
If they blacklist you, then you must get in touch. The way I used was @patrice via discord.
About my coding skills it broadens from web development to desktop stuff in many languages. I have not professional level as I never made it my work. I sometimes make some blockchain coding tests but It’s very rare as I got not enough free time.
Nowadays I’m more focused on developing myself with music and here I am with piano,drums and music software in a learning curve still on high gradient. My professional and familiar environment prevents me from going faster either way coding or music.
Hopes this feeds your curiosity 😂
Hugs

Did nothing much... :/ since I am not a big thing here to make enough impact yet. I am genuinely glad you stay on the platform and will keep the great work you do and inspire others to follow the same. We should always be united to try to keep the good people on any platform, so it can grow well and healthy and steem shouldn't be different even with all the problems it has. :)
