nothing much. usual.
Acid can tell you more details. But this Adiana individual is one of the most rewarded person on hive. I think I was told once that it is a front. Not a person. I mean is she is certainly human, that is not what I am saying. But... well I will let Acid explain
Used to farm appreciator votes.
PS and now steempty
this is non-unique case, many individuals over many years... let me see if I can find an old example....
Interesting.
Certainly had me fooled, if that's the case.
Looking at Hivebuzz, yeah I can see that's a lot of earning and nothing to show for it. Drakos quip about 'small user' certainly isn't accurate.
Interesting.
If you are more interested and want to go deep, here is what I am told the “process”
I'm actually quite knowledgeable when it comes to art fraud. Haven't been paying attention to this account though for awhile. Used to follow her but it became boring and repetitive (no offense andrianna). Never looked close enough I guess. But I used to actively look for art fraud and call it out. 100% success rate.
One guy back when votes were sold would take high res image of space with stars and stuff, probably grabbed it off the internet somewhere. Then he'd crop small squares out and post that, daily, calling it 'digital art'. He'd boost it to the top and suck thousands per week out of the pool. That's pretty much when I got sick of it. Go there and downvote and all they do is act like you're some monster, yet they're the shoplifter caught on video watching themselves steal and still denying it. It's so fucking ridiculous. Then you get folks like drakos there with comments like that... why even bother. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
But I just thought I'd ask here. I didn't know the details but I know there are a lot of art frauds around. Meanwhile the good artists are struggling sometimes. I'll do my best to support those ones when I can, since I actually can...
Why would I mention this every time?
I served my sentence on a fair list. So what's the problem then?
Why such an aggressive reaction?
I just said that I don't like flags. I expressed my opinion. Is it against the rules?
Let them come up with some other way of regulating the rewards.
I go to the blog and it is all red with flags.
Association with the flag is like a punishment for a violation to me. This is where the problem is.
I can't get used to the fact that flags are the norm now.
Why are you doing this? Why are you insulting me "individual"?
Have I done something bad to you, or have I ever insulted you?
