Good point my buddy, well said. I have been blogging about this issue and hope that may will hear it from the boss blogger.
However as steemit is growing, we can never stop it because of new people unless there is an automated message during sign up.
In addition to my comment, and in support of your fight against spam here, I posted about the issue on my blog post. Feel free to check it out..wish you a blessed weekend.
There are a few of us that talk about it but most people don't care much but let's start chaining that :)
Good point , I agree. More success
