Let's do a little test and see how much you are legit in your claim
Will you downvote following post which bought vote from @smartmarket and currently its way over rewarded ?

You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
ok that was an easy one for me - down voted, but there are shades of grey it seems. it would be good to have community guide lines (global one for steem) going forward. i.e some sending to X amount to null, circle voting, etc
Seems he is legit ;)
legit angry
Sigh. I'm not sure that was actually "over rewearded" to be honest. Those photos are extremely hard to get, if in deed they are original. When last did you face off with a snake for a snap like that, or were you able to catch a monkey in that pose?
Is this perceived as "low quality" because of the lack of text? What about the work the photographer put in to achieve the shots?
I just upvoted it instead :) . [see? that's how things are supposed to work. Agree. Disagree. Reach balance]
Super grey area.
It takes a long time to photograph a snake especially in the pose it is in and it is always dangerous sometimes you can be chased by animals, it also takes time to wait for a pass for the monkey and also luck, I do not add text to my photos because I think that a picture is worth a thousand words there are things in the world that can only be enjoyed and happen in a single instant.
So you'd like to police around? Just start a downvote trail on https://steemauto.com and feel free to do so. Maybe make an account for that, too?
I'd also like to assist you naming that account. Here are my suggestions:
What do you think?
This is a challenge now, 5 Steem for the Winner. What do I refer to?
Next time, feel free to use your real account if you want to troll around.

I'm a bot. I detect haiku.
I actually anticipated your this response. Its not a troll and again its still a valid point, if you can't answer anything then you cannot simply rule it out as troll.
I still remember the last time I exposed your scam which you started with @smartfund, you were pissed at me first but then after getting few downvotes from whales, your whole tone changed and you became so humble and pious suddenly, LOL
Be realistic and clean up yourself first by having some guidelines first with your @smartsteem voting selling services and then talk about etiquettes of Downvoting.
By the way, I am still wondering why @ocdb (@acidyo, @anomadsoul) is still allowing you to sell profitable votes. I hope they look into your case too because you also fall into category of too much self-upvote considering the last 3 teaser posts of @smartsteem for so called updates, so you can just upvote them yourself and with your alts.
We are downvoting smartmarket profitable votes too, but yeah, get on your main account if you want to put some weight behind your words. Else you're just a coward.
Thanks for responding, I was not sure before that's why I mentioned it and its good to know that you guys are actually trying to cater smartmarket too, already the great work with others
I am currently a minnow (recently upgraded from plankaton) and you might have an idea that I cannot afford to speak freely and face downvotes from whales like Wolf.
Standing up to things you believe are wrong without hiding behind a pseudonym of a pseudonym is something to be proud about. And I don't believe in retaliating via downvotes just because I disagree with someone.
Look, your stance on the @smartfund idea was correct and it was the right thing for you to comment on it, just keep in mind that the tone makes the music. I'm not an evil person, just a human who isn't all-knowing and who makes mistakes and who learns from respectfully given feedback.
I don't think wolf is someone who would retaliate with downvotes based on someone speaking their mind about his services, or at least not auto-dv or some other stupid shit we seeing some people do lately.
We're still a long way from countering abusive downvotes tho, I have to admit. Can't even begin looking at that with ocdb yet as there's still so much profitable votes being sold just so the bid bot owners earn more ROI than honest curators. Once that is finally dealt with we'll be moving onto countering downvotes and breaking off voting rings.
Hard to tell where to start and where to stop. It would be interesting for me to read your opinion on SBI in HF22 and later. It seems to have all characteristics of a full-fledged upvote cycle while beeing popular.
I have to agree, been looking a bit at it and qurator but so much going on lately it's hard to keep tabs.
I don't have a problem with criticism, especially if it's done with respect. You, on the other hand, are an anonymous person, with seemingly the right intentions, but with a huge lack of respect.
Regarding vote-selling: this will be a topic of the past coming 20th October.
What did I miss again? If nothing, then don't bother.
Smartsteem stopped the bid-bot right after HF21 and on 20th October vote-selling (smartmarket) is going to be stopped as well. This does not mean the topic as a whole isn't something to look into anymore, jus that Smartsteem is evolving into a different direction.
thanks
