Whatever this dude is earning from his "abuse" is probably worth it.
From the whitepaper;
Any compensation they get for their successful attempts at abuse or collusion is at least as valuable for the purpose of distributing the currency as the make-work system employed by traditional Bitcoin mining or the collusive mining done via mining pools. All that is necessary is to ensure that abuse isn’t so rampant that it undermines the incentive to do real work in support of the community and its currency.
Your right everyone should just stop trying to control the wild jungle. The 120 SP/SBD earned between those 2 accounts from the reward pool last week 100% justified. Would been more if it was not for me meddling in their plans. Who cares about all other accounts doing the same thing in a pairs as well that’s only a few 1000 per week out of the reward pool for their 2 or 3 word comment spam.
It’s also just fine the 280 accounts controlled by this guy as well https://steemit.com/@warren.buffet/transfers
Or is it 1300 accounts.. 1500 accounts? It’s so hard to tell anymore. I’m sure most of those accounts are not bots.
Don’t you worry the bots won’t ever notice the potential of extracting out 50,000+ SP/SBD a week from the reward pool. Surly many different “resources” are not being tested out by the smaller subnets in that voting block.
I’ve spoken with a few people spent over 15 hours dealing with this type of thing and research. My conclusion is--why should I bother. It’s too hard to tell what a legit person in that group is and what a botted account. I'm just going be happy others are using there abilities to contribute to steemit in interesting ways.
I guess you are being sarcastic.
The point I make is straight from the whitepaper.
If someone is making 50k a week from scamming this platform - they earned that by exposing a major flaw. I don't think you will find 50k in self votes being a problem.
The hundred bucks those voters took from the pool is justified.
