RE: Ye Olde Flaggy Sea Bastard & his Flaggin’ Cannon!

There's a difference between promoting your users and taking a cut of of users rewards. All the rewards go into the soldier account....whereas that don't happen with other sites, they resteem and upvote but they don't deposit their users rewards into their own personal accounts and then give them a "cut" of it. That leaves a whole lot of incentive for voting on anything posted regardless of value, leaves a whole lot of incentive to increase those votes regardless of content as power is accumulated, leaves a whole lot of incentive to create tons of alt accounts as all those alts account rewards will go directly into the account of soldier. Like I said why would she want them to open their own accounts here?...she'd be defeating her own purpose...that's to make money off them using her site. Anyone with any brains or commonsense who did come here would be saying to themselves geez I don't need to use appics and pay them I could just post my own stuff and get the full rewards. Which is exactly the incentive someone would want to hack old dormant accounts off instagram, use mannequins, dolls to set up fake accounts. I know you all think I am full of shit but as a blogger I've seen some shit weirdo guys do with these dolls playing dress up with them....I can't be the only one to see how they could be used for an alternate purpose...why share the pie if you can have the whole thing. I am not saving everyone is fake I am just saying there's potential there for some fraud. There is no verification outside of taking someone's word for it.

You need to address your concerns to @soldier and @appics. They have done a lot of work for Steem. I've seen them at Steemfest and other events. What rewards she is making are not going to cover the cost of those. I'm not generally supporting them, but if it looks like they are recruiting then I may. That's my choice. If you have proof that accounts are fake then @steemflagrewards will be interested. I see @soldier has challenged a new one to show their content is original. That's easy enough to do with a quick video.

Anthony did try to intervene and asked for verification, he was shut down by the nigerian dude. That in itself should be concerning to everyone here as there has to be a reason...if it's a legit situation there'd be no reason to shut him down and it would seem quite a logical request for one business to ask another for verification.

I tried to bringing attention by calling attention to their site, I was meant with flagging of all my post, flagging of all my comments, threatened and told I didn't have any idea of what was about to happen to me as soon as they found out who I was...which I was then hit with bots attacks, then I started receiving dirty sex text messages which ironically came to an end after I told them when they said I should go watch more porn on my phone that my phone was a ten year old phone with a tiny screen that I couldn't view stuff like that on anyway.

Yeah, these are really, really nice people you are dealing with. Right now maybe it's at a loss to them but making dolphin in less than six months as I predict soon it will be orca then whale then to late to do shit about it when they start rewarding single picture content with ridiculous rewards.
