Spaminator is a group on HIVE that combats spam... Apparently, they consider threads on INLEO low quality content unworthy of upvotes. Luckily they only affect the $HIVE parts of the rewards, the $LEO parts are not affected.
There's no use fighting them, the best option is to keep doing what you're doing until they get tired of you and target someone else.
You can also message them on their Discord and explain yourself to them, that may or may not work. #spaminator #inleo #hive #freecompliments

The best solution is simply more threads. As always, the numbers can overwhelm.
That's one way to do it...
Just keep growing. One day they won't matter. The collective HIVE held by lions will be enough one day to make them think twice.
Hope that becomes a reality soon...
I think that leo.voter is already a potential deterrent if they chose to, but it is probably best to just let things go on as they currently are for now.
For now that alone is not enough... I think most of the threads that got downvoted were upvoted by Leo.voter but I didn't take time to confirm that.
I am mostly ambivalent about all of that. I am sure I would be pissed if it happened to me, but the rewards are not mine until 7 days...
I think with this type of thing, fighting fire with fire just doesn't work. The main thing that i don't like is when hall monitors get funding from the pool.
If an individual downvotes, even for reasons that I think are stupid--that is their right as long as they do it with their money
I have mixed feelings about this, but logically I totally agree. It's just that emotionally, it's hard to accept:
In my expereince, responding to downvotes with retaliatory downvotes doesn't end up well--even if you have more HP than them.
Next thing you know there is a downvote war that degenerates.
Small users have to hope that a big user comes and saves them.
At least the downvote use is limited by the system.
