Hi @good-karma! We recognize you as one of the primary leaders of Steem.
We see that Steemit would benefit greatly from a upgraded system for clarifying and preventing High-Stakes Abuse.
We bring to you an idea, a solution; Introducing the Steem RewardPool Protection Guild.
The idea is relatively simple. Everyone who joins the Guild gives 1 vote each day (automatically distributed) towards flagging the most prevalent abusers on Steem. By joining the RewardPool Protection Guild you obtain a weighted vote (proportionate to your steem power) that gives you a direct voice in what EXACTLY steemit abuse is, and which steemit abusers we will target first.
Please explore more details in our posting; https://steemit.com/steemit/@earthnation/another-solution-to-dissuade-steemit-abuse-reward-pool-destruction-the-steemian-rewardpool-protection-guild.
Let us know if you have any questions! We would love to collaborate with you in making Steem even better!
