Fear not, you will not be alone.

can you please explain why my friend @belair has been put on your blacklist?
He's a straight-up guy with an AMAZING network, and ought to be treated more like a celebrity than an outlaw.
He has NOT spammed anyone/anything.
ALL the content he has posted is his own.
There is NOTHING in his posts about ANY sort of scam or fraud.
Please explain, as this really makes no sense...
46 posts (not comments) in a day...
Yes, because he’s new to Steemit and that was his first day migrating his content over.

Can you please provide reference to what site rules this strategy has broken, such that it is justified spamming him with such notifications put out by a bot rather than a live human being with the ability to properly discern the situation?
Unfortunately, no. What rules and tactics I use to identify spam are proprietary and disclosing what I do and use would move the line and make it more difficult to identify spam, plagiarists, and bad actors.
I don't get paid to find 10-200 spammers a day, I don't have time to sit and have a conversation with every spammer and plagiarist I identify and wait for that conversation to play out and then add them to the list and look behind my back all the time and find the same bad actors at some later date. It is hard enough to find and identify spammers and get them blacklisted appropriately without devoting my entire life to it. It takes a lot of time and research to find and identify, something I don't want to do over and over for the same users.
Once I find and identify a bad actor, I blacklist it and move on to the next one.
I will look into the account and review it again.
Hey @themarkymark I appreciate you taking the time to review the account. I'm new to steemit and honestly, don't know what I'm doing. I thought it was a regular blog platform that I could just migrate my content over. I have so much content and create two new pieces minimum daily and normally post to youtube which you can see here http://www.youtube.com/c/mattbelairshow, soundcloud, IG @mattbelair and facebook. If you could advise me on the regulations or do's and dont's that would be amazing. Right now I've learned to keep it to 5 posts or less a day? Would I be in compliance then? I appreciate your work and algorithm finding spammers, that shit is annoying. I wasn't posting to spam, just to migrate and happy to learn the guidelines.

I have removed you from the blacklist.
It is generally acceptable to post 1-2 times a day, as many as five can be still considered normal. Quality of content is more important than frequency. There is no set count, and I evaluate on a case by case basis.
Posting 46 in a single day is what triggered being added to the list. There is no reasonable scenario that 46 top-level posts would be normal.
I understand you were migrating your blog and have removed you. Something like that would be better done a few a day, not even referring to our blacklist, no one can or will read or upvote 46 posts in a single day.
Hey @themarkymark I really appreciate that! My thought was migration as I have 150 episodes and record 3-5 new ones per week so I thought I was just putting in some work haha. All of the podcasts are great content. Maybe I'll post 1 new one and up to 2 old ones per day? Or should I just focus on the new content? Also I was thinking of uploading all the video to DTube because it's a more secure server. I record the show via vimeo, post to youtube, then edit it for the podcast, then I make a blog. That's how I did it in the regular platforms, what would you advise for steemit?. I appreciate what you do for steemit as it's important and taking the time to review my case~
Big Love!

Hey @themarkymark I just wanted to double check that I was taken off the list. I just posted something and got the auto spam reply again. Does it take some time to be taken off? Thanks :)
Thanks, Mark.
I understand, and appreciate your contributions to helping keep this place clean and weeding out the inappropriate conduct.
🙏
I am in your blacklist for 8 months, I want to know the reason? I am not a spammer, no plagiarism or any fraud
Good luck trying to get any help. I have tried over and over again, to no avail. They think they're God or something.
Please remove me form your spamlist. What should I do, quiet steemit? you trying to push me out? I post memes - it's normal, that not every meme is my OC (but that hasn't been a issue in meme culture) Memes live trough finding somting funny and sharing it..
Hi ! Could you please remove me from the blacklist ? I have done no plagiarism, I simply upload my content on Steemit after uploading it to YouTube, you can check here : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbnwtDaEJv7QWeUPq_U9q1w?disable_polymer=true
Thank you in advance,
why am i in blacklist? any reason?
You are not that's a spammer copying our comments
oh. so that is just copy? am i not spammer?
and than i will remove my flag :) thanks quick reply
It's just a spammer copying our comments and pretending to be us. She also uses our @buildawhale tag of 2 Million Steem Power under her profile, but she has less than 15 SP.
Have the same account commenting every post AMN makes, I've been looking through every Blacklist update and just couldn't find @amnlive. Is flagging the comments as spam the solution?
You are on the blacklist.
Ok @themarkymark, so I guess the @badcontent bot is yours then.
AMN is a news agency so we'll keep sourcing other media for relevant content in addition to our own original work.
Talked to the @cheetah & @steemcleaners people and it's not really built to take industry standard attribution into consideration.
Would be nice to know which of your list of offenses you figured made us earn a seat on your exclusive clubb.
I guess we'll just continue to have your bot keep plugging your @ipromote service on our posts then :)
Be well & enjoy.
Keep up the good work!
Have to make sure to stay off this list!
STOPWhy I'm I on the blacklist and who runs @ipromote
@buildawhale please remove me from your spam list.. I only post original content + embedded videos from YouTube. https://steemit.com/cryptocurrency/@vicmariki/millennials-the-major-participants-in-bitcoin-cryptocurrency-marketplaces-like-paxful-must-read#@vicmariki/re-zuhrafriska-re-vicmariki-millennials-the-major-participants-in-bitcoin-cryptocurrency-marketplaces-like-paxful-must-read-20180521t082025379z
Refer to the link above. If there's something you think am doing wrong please let me know.
Hello @themarkymark, could you please remove my friend @majes.tytyty from your blacklist? I suspected that you blacklisted him because of bot abuse in the days of the old Steem. You're right about that. However, with bid bots now completely discouraged in the wake of the New Steem and with @Majes.tytyty now fully committed to the spirit of the New Steem, it will be only fair and just, if you would agree, to remove him from your blacklist.
Thanks a lot.
Hello, @smartsteem and @buildawhale
I noticed that I have been blacklisted by both of you. Could you please explain your reasons for doing so?
Also, would you kindly consider removing me from your blacklists?
Over the past 2-plus years, I have strived to make quality, readable posts. I’ve done so in a variety of topics – including music, photography, education, and finance. I try to make interesting posts that will attract a wide variety of readers.
As a result, I’ve developed a solid reputation and a diverse library of content on my blog.
Moreover, I have done what I can to build and support a strong Steemit community. Over the past year, I’ve delegated plenty of SteemPower to numerous Steemians, at rates which the recipients found very reasonable and beneficial. Most of those delegations from me are continuing as we move forward.
I hope to continue doing such work for the Steemit community – with particular focus on my new "Death Of The Dollar" series. https://steemleo.com/@majes.tytyty
Therefore, I would greatly appreciate it if you would reconsider my presence on your blacklist.
Thanks, @majes.tytyty
