The @buildawhale blacklist
If you are mentioned below, you have a free all-access pass to our blacklist. This is a pretty exclusive club, with many benefits, none of which are an upvote from us.
Fear not, you will not be alone.
All bids from these users will be rejected and will be used to fund efforts to make Steemit great again.
The blooper reel
I post a blacklist update every day or so, this is a list of new users to our blacklist. While the wording is playful, the blacklist is a serious project.
I frequently receive responses from users wanting to be placed on the blacklist as they feel they are missing out. These responses always crack me up and I posted a list of them from time to time.
Here are some of the recent comments to our blacklist.
To all those above...

At first, I thought these were spammers and plagiarists who wanted to come clean and blacklist themselves lol
How do I get on this list?
lol jk
This is really funny stuff. I just voted for you for witness!
Thanks mate :)
I gotta be more educated about @buildawhale blacklist...
UPDATED: Probably his list are used for take some users in count when one of them make a bid for his vote-bot.
What i do not understand is why some users above whan to be in the ugly club. Are them masochists? Probably i gotta be wrong...
They are likely comment spammers who don't even read the post, they just get the gist of it from the title and comment in hopes for a vote while doing this to hundreds of posts.
The nice thing is the spammers are kind of asking for it. Should make your job much easier.
I won't add someone just for making a dumb comment, there is a lot of criteria I use for determining if someone gets added. Plagiarism is the only one that will guarantee you a spot.
tfw you don´t know if bot or serious.
That's pretty hilarious.
I have just cast my first ever vote for witness @themarkymark
Thanks :)
Is it an English issue? May be they don't understand what a blacklist is? Still pretty hilarious though
I suspect it is part of it but a big part is people just farming comments and not reading.
English probably isn't their first language and something got lost in translation.
Its rather not their fault because they are spammers, lazy and ignoramus. They want to earn without work. They will ask for it again for them not even reading the comments.
Is probably they don't understand the meaning of blacklist, English language palava
