what is the definition of spam?
i had a look on the winners account and can't see any difference to what i did
You are right, challenge will be improved each month. I did hear some people were just copying and pasting their content/comments, those kind of behaviour will excluded next month.
ok i see, very well, that's fair enough. we gonna improve and write unique text.
however i tried this as well and did not get any reward. so i was considering that i am black listed.
looking up the winners account, made me come forward to point out this issue.
you know, all possibilities will be used if you allow them... am i correct?
i'm writing this comment via esteem. unique text to check again.
if this text is not long enough then just let us know the rules :-)
we are happy to participate...
Yes, just checked, looks like you got yourself blacklisted, because you used same comment on multiple posts few days back :) I will remove you now but please try to contribute to the posts/articles with relevant comments... ;)
thx, you may consider to write an article to point out your rules.
i'm sure on that "blacklist" are more names, why no algo?
it's a great chance to tell them how to improve, like you did with me :-)
if they fail again... well ok
would love to see a cool startover for all others as well, there are many... on your "blacklist" right ? ;-)
have a very nice day mate, you are a cool straight dude, nice talk, i was a bit horrified to face a typical MOD ^^
You are right, there was no rule at first but after this experiment started, a lot of people started to abuse voting power and it is not practical to comment everyone and ask them to use it properly. Blacklisting them seem like quick and efficient solution... Will consider including note in future posts, Have fun ;)
@good-karma Followed that discussion as it seems that I am blacklisted too..
First of all I want to tell you that my idea was not to spam, but reach out many
new Steemians and get new Follower and even get upvotes for that - that was great..
Also I saw many people doing it, so I thought it is okay that way.
As I thought it was an algo that blocked that kind of comment I changed my commenting, but
still no upvotes...
May you will consinder just blocking comments in introduceyourself postings
instead of blocking us - as long as you dont have an algo to define spammy postings ?
As there have been no stated rules, its hard to be blacklisted :(. I agree with @chrisx, that define and post
rules and set everybody to zero would be a good thing...
Appreciate you are reaching out and it is also subjective matter. I am sure you would agree that good comments bring encouragement to author of the posts as well as contributes to the conversation. You might have noticed yourself, if you bring value to the conversation/discussion/article, authors will vote for your comment. I will remove you from list as well... Have fun and Steem on! ;)
Thanks a lot. Yes I agree about the question of encouragement and contributing. Thats the questions we need to get sorted out here.
Re contributing...May there is a chance to spot spam by combine commenting intervall time with reading time of the post. I see you have the data of reading time of a post. When a user access a post which is - say - 5 Minutes Reading Time, than there is a good chance that a comment after one minute or less is spammy..
