That is not a scam or fraud or anything. THEY OFFERED IT. It is taking advantage of there to generous offer. It happens all the time in business. You think every account on Facebook and Twitter is a real account??? lol .... and I used my own money for the accounts and bid bots :)

Creating 400 accounts to claim an airdrop? Totally legit on any platform.
Really, so trolling comments with spam posts stating your opinion isn't the same?
Most of the bidbots still call that abuse of their services (read their ToS) so I'd call it justified.
So here we have a great example of why flagging and black lists are slippery slopes. We disagree about the action. I get flagged / black listed and stop investing/promoting steem. This has happened to many thousands of users for things like copy pasting titles and self voting. This is why the current whales are STUPID ..... who designs a system, gets users excited and then, wait for it ...... down votes them for using the system the way it was designed? Not hacking ..... how it was designed. In other words, what morons decided to have self voting AND decide that it is bad ..... You can't make this shit up.
okay, so you mean we should get more users who abuse the system instead of trying to fix the system and get organic growth of users who want an healthy alternative to facebook? and have the chance to get here and there a few $ if they post something exciting?
"who designs a system, gets users excited and then, wait for it ...... down votes them for using the system the way it was designed?"
Re-read that until you understand it.
The system was not designed to abuse it, the system was designed to balance itself, downvoting people for attempting to abuse it, is how the system was designed. The name is self governance.
Self governance is not a contractual obligation to fairness or justice, it is the madness of crowds and a few big players pulling invisible strings.
If you want to improve the platform, focus on attacking the people who cash out the most STEEM to exchanges, starting with the list at the top of this page. #followthemoney
Either you got an attempt of self governance, which will never work perfectly and smoothly and to the satisfaction of everyone, or you got central governance and it works best for most besides some small minorities (like youtube). But you can't have the best of both worlds.
This place is full of people abusing the system with multiple alts, many making comments on this very page.
The point I think you are missing here in what he is saying is he isn't playing the game any differently then many others just on a more massive scale, a scale that has allowed many to abuse it on whatever terms they wanted to describe it to themselves.
Tell me... Who's the biggest abuser around here? Who built bidbots and farmed both curation rewards and liquid steem for the longest time ever? Does that person still hold all of that gigantic Steem Power pool harvested by non-organic practices? Is it a coincidence that now that very same person benefits the most from hardfork 22 since only his circlejerk holds enough power to make posts go beyond that 20 steem wall?
The problem isn't bidbots. The price of steem would just be regulated by, oh my god could you see this coming, offer and demand.
The problem is @themarkymark and his circlejerk. If you want to support the blockchain in the long run, you turn away from @themarkymark and whoever he supports.
IN other words, "Don't hate the player, hate the game."
