How are we supposed to fight his bot which provides each post with $150+ rewards? My 0.05 to .14 cent vote won't do much to any of his posts.

Also he has a higher rep than I do so flagging will do very little. I would be less annoying than a fly.

So there are multiple things you can do, and as mobbs has pointed out, there is flagawhale.

First, have your heard the expression "the whole is greater than the sum of its parts." well while this won't be true in terms of voting strengths (due to linear rewards) it is true in another aspect. If we had 1000 people flagging these posts with a diverse set of MV (or SP) then there would be no way for haejin/rancho/done/btu...etc to flag everyone backwithout destroying their VP to near 0.

Healing factor: Because they will likely concentrate their flags to the people that either A: spam more, or B: hold more SP then everyone can work together to counteract the flag and only vote enough to counteract a flag (as a reaction) in terms of both value and rep. Thus if they had happened to flag a smaller user, we could repair the damage.

Lets say we had 750 minnows with 0.00-3.47 dollar vote and lets say the average vote amongst all of them was 0.12 meaning the minnows could effective take or give $90 worth of votes, I know that is nothing compared to the whales but in the group there will be whales, and dolphins all working together and honestly, every bit helps.

I don't know, its a thought.

No. Please... No.

I can totally understand your frustration @berniesanders. I have followed you for a long time and I vote for you as a witness too.

Like I have said many times before, when I've felt "forced" to explain why I vote for you and why I believe you truly are one of the good guys on Steemit:

I do not personally agree with 100% of the things you do, but I still believe that what you are doing, is your way of protecting Steemit and your investment. You have many times been an inspiration even though I would've done things differently from time to time.

Despite all the hate and the anger one often feel when reading your posts... You are a good guy. You are trying to protect your investment and you're doing what you believe is for the greater good. Not for yourself but for the entire platform.

I have read many comments regarding your self votes and the bot votes you buy to highlight certain issues and to reward your posts... But I also feel that I know why you are doing it, so I have never had any problems with that at all. I also know that you often lose money by doing that. So you're basically investing more money even though you get a negative ROI. You continue with this approach because you believe in Steemit. You see potential and that is why I believe you are doing what you do.

Do not back down from this. I beg you. You and @fulltimegeek along with many others will win the battle against the cave troll.

It's really hard to fight a war where people shoot each other with assault rifles, rocket launchers and tactical nukes when you're only equipped with a toothpick. I really wish I had more influence around here, as I'd really put an effort towards making this place what it was meant to be in the first place, but as of now there's not much I can do other than try to slowly grow and become more influential over time.

You got my vote for witness and my support for projects like the Abuse Reports and if I'll ever end up buying post promotion I'll probably do it with randowhale. Meanwhile I'll try my best to pile up some Steem while talking about the issues we're facing as much as I can to hope fully spread awareness..?

It seems to me @berniesanders that you and @grumpycat are having an effect. You now have several whale accounts making post about it, and several witnesses making post about the issues also, so you are definitely having an effect. You are drawing all the hypocrites out of the woodwork. If people take the time to look they will find. People who supposedly care about the reward pool, and the amount of self upvoting, all the while upvoting their own crap post, and crap comments. The resistance group, Your self upvote is flagged by The-Resistance team while at the same time upvoting their own comments, so like I said you are having an effect, even if that is only showing and pulling the hypocrites out of the woodwork.

Yeah I understand where you come from and everything, and thats life I guess. So many of the wrong people are getting rewarded for the wrong things, such as @craig-grant and @trevonjb. I mean hell, it's confirmed they are scammers, and guess what? They're probably gonna go to jail. But for a long time they were getting a shit ton of money for scamming people by trying to get people to join bitconnect or whatever the ponzi scheme was. And for a long ass time @craig-grant was getting loads and loads of money by self voting and abusing the system.

( I know a lot of people may argue differ), but most of the whales on here act like douchy scumbags who only upvote themselves and maybe upvote a friend once in the blue moon. But my point is, steemit is being abused wayyyy too much by whales, scammers, spammers, and just novice steemians.

But nevertheless, All platforms ahve their own problems, and thats all part of life. The best thing to do is to flag them and raise awareness, but dont put too much time and energy into it because it is really all a bunch of negativity.

I really like how you have the balls to call out and stand up to all of the steemit abusers and scumbags, most people are too scared to get flaggged down, but you sir, are brave enough to stand up for the platform, so kudos to you ;)

Stay positive, steem on!

Might be a good idea to bring awareness to the problem. 30 day campaign with 10 posts per day at 100% self vote(from all sources). In addition max out as many bots as you can with SBD.

growlinggriffin (34) · 7 years ago (edited)

Here are 2 big reasons why I think Steemit is a failure,

The upvote system is broken and flawed with its architecture and design. As a result we see the same whales appear in trending everyday. @haejin clogs up half the feed with his posts. The articles that people find the most interesting never appear in the trending category because it's been hijacked by huge whales with voting bots (sybil attacks). Other huge whales who could potentially correct this never engage or curate. Somebody like @ned or @dan should be out everyday curating good content - but they never do. They are lazy and inactive users. All @dan ever does is withdraw money all day long, it's just a bank account for him. If he really cared about this platform he would hire people to use his account to curate content or police bad players.
Immutability isn't desirable. Censorship is needed just like an immune system is needed. People want censorship but they desire rational and fair censorship. People also want self censorship and an ability to delete old posts or fix spelling errors.

That's my feedback after a year here, thanks for listening. Good luck @berniesanders.

How can one person compete with someone who is drawing from literally dozens of sources. How can this be allowable?! Please keep up the good work. We will have to self-police the community until an update can be made to reduce content hijacking, especially by bots. I do hope that steemit is trying to resolve this issue and implement a system that will penalize such users.

To be honest, I've been watching this drama play out for awhile and the issue here isn't I think the fact that they're getting 'too much steem' it's that people aren't being very selective with their upvoting.

Whenever I see them I upvote the nice voting guilds like @Curie who search for small users to upvote and give them some help. That's something that can be quite easy for people to do in order to counter the whales who are abusing the system with upvote bots.

A solution realistically already exists, people just need to stop the complaining and put their weight behind these sorts of accounts instead of being bitchy and getting into a flag war.
