You are free to make your own judgement, I am just empowering you with information.
How this technique works
1. Follow thousands of people in hope that they will follow back in return
2. Some people do follow back (in-fact a lot do!)
3. After a few days or weeks simply unfollow all users you had followed
This makes their followers numbers more than following and to a newbie user visiting the profile, it seems that these are really popular users.
Steemit is very different from the typical Social Networks and we all know it. With this report, I am not trying to point any fingers and you may have legitimate reasons to unfollow people in thousands! I am just trying to bring more transparency in the platform. The aim is to make aware and discourage people from using such practices which otherwise work perfectly on other closed Social Platforms!
This report has been generated using @arcange's amazing www.steemsql.com service.
Looks like the unfollowers are busy with some thing else than unfollowing people. The stats are decreasing week by week, which I guess is good enough for the community.

It's kinda random.. on some days it's up and others it's down. There are some serial unfollowers though which keep coming up in every other report!

All these techniques are interesting. I don't use them though. There is this account that keeps following and unfollowing me alsmost every day.... really annoys me.

Very nice buddy! I would love to play around with @arcange's steemsql. I had heard of it before but I haven't had the time to look into it! :] Is it Microsoft SQL, ORACLE, or MySQL?

I don't unfollow nearly that many people, but I will have to admit that I'm pretty free about unfollowing people on here. If I'm being flooded by resteems from a particular person or low-quality content I will unfollow them. I follow people fast, but unfollow even faster!
