You gotta stop with the tagging, please.
He used an alt on purpose without telling others it's his, it's the equivalent of a sybil attack on Hive and its voters. He was free to use alts like everyone else does and let it be public that they belong to him but he did this on purpose cause of greed and excessive selfvotes and votetrading which also goes against the EIP. Stop defending this, we need to move beyond that if we want Hive to excel at what it does and how it works.
You are the first to talk about this in a reasonable way (that I have seen anyway). Everyone else is just pulling up what I'd call trash, and talking trash, and as such, I'm sure you understand why I have reacted as though it were an unjustified lynching.
Could you expand on how he implemented his sybil attack on HIVE?
I think when things are taken this far, we need good, clear justification for what's been done, and I hope you agree.
This is a serious matter that affects us all, one which deserves tagging. I hope it's clear to everyone that I don't make a habit of tagging, and this is an exception made for an exceptional issue. (If you remember, I did it once with a survey regarding onsite witnesses versus hosted witnesses.) I hope you help to make that clear to everyone else on that list. TIA
It's simple, as a curator say I value the work of @tarazkp, his consistency, determination, content and loyalty to Hive and holding it over time. Unbeknownst to me if he was also you @cryptographic he would be at times taking 2 of my upvotes instead of the 1 I wanted to give him. Now think about this at a bigger scale, you both voting on each other constantly, votetrading with others to always autovote your and taraz' posts and suddenly there's no votes for other accounts = shitty distribution = proof of stake fails = cartel voting that's been plagueing EOS BP's for years.
Now look at @taskmaster4450 he has a known alt by almost the same name, he still gets rewarded handsomely on both and everyone is aware of it, he also puts in the work and everyone is fine with it. Had jrcornel done that there wouldn't have been a problem, but the freedom of Hive that allows for anyone, anonymous or not, to earn Hive is expected to be upfront about his uniqueness of a persona or else it'll count as a sybil attack where he's not just tricking other users to gain more for himself, but curators and other authors to earn less as well.
This makes sense, thank you for explaining 👍
You're a first rate chump. I'm guessing. Your age? Since you've been around for a few years, figure you had to be as least 12 when you started . . .
and you'll be dead by the time inflation of hive is reduced 😂
You surpass yourself. Glad you understand it though. Earth to acidyo, earth to acidyo, anyone home?
ahhhh things get more clear now, self upvote with alt + copy and paste content (not exclusive), now I understand.
I thought first is some kind of personal vendetta thing :) like flagwars from the past.

autovote ROI + APR and regular trending posts through votetrading (effectively 10x selfvotes + front-runners and blind voters and some genuine ones) is not enough for some people.
that's real leeching without any shame.

and when people finally catch them they start pointing fingers that others were also doing it and getting their votetrading partners to defend them as if their life depends on it.
What's funny is he instantly stopped posting his high demand content when the downvotes started and both of them started powering down. Instead of like, I don't know, apologizing for having milked the rewardpool for years, only looked out for themselves and ridden on the backs of the people putting the community first before profits that has helped their greedy stake reach a higher price. 🤷♂
Oh well, glad it's over, more rewards for other people who won't go down the same greedy route!
Uh, actually I did apologize. I didn't ask anyone to do anything for me and don't have vote trading partners. It's funny that when you have people that you vote and they upvote you (that you talk to), they are called friends, but when anyone else does it, it's called vote trading partners. The hypocrisy continues to know no bounds with you and yours. Not everyone has the luxury of huge gifted delegations that they upvote their friends with and sell the HIVE they earn along the way.
Yeah and when I didn't have these delegations I still didn't try and be a greedy bastard. There's a difference between voting manually and remembering your friends than placing autovotes on each other so it effectively becomes 10x self-votes and rendering the tax threshold useless. The fact you stopped posting right after downvotes and keep trying to make it sound like what you did isn't as bad as it is really shows your priorities. Not like you've ever really contributed to this platform in any other meaningful way than spinning articles and looking out for yourself.
I've literally bought tens of thousands of dollars worth of this coin with my outside money, brought a dozen friends to this platform, most of which have also invested tens of thousands of dollars of their own money. Have you even put one dollar into this? There are many ways of supporting. Regarding posting, many on here have made it abundantly clear that I am no longer welcome.
Besides the shady vote trading alt account thing, I never liked multichain copy and paste content. Some kind of exclusive content is the only thing worth being rewarded IMO.
Otherwise, it is a bit pointless to reward copy and paste content.
I can assure you that with mental reasoning capacity like yours, you're going nowhere fast. Like I said before, you'd be best advised to zip it and stick with the console in your parents' basement (the games, that is - I know they won't let you near the code anymore, so yeah, keep it dumb and simple . . . oh, and load up on the NFTs, you're a great greater fool too).
