RE: Important Change to Steemit, effective immediately.

in #haejin7 years ago

Sure, bots could abuse it, and inevitably some would slip through the cracks, but their required interaction would still expose them to correction in the form of downvoting. We see that with spam bots now. Eventually they get downvoted to nothing. My proposal won't fix the problem of people trying to game the system overall, but it would provide a recourse for the ivory tower user that buys SP, doesn't expose themselves to downvotes or interact with the community and up/downvotes in ways that go against the communities' values.
