6 out of the 7 photo posts have been upvoted by curangel at over 10 hive per post. the posts are easily described as being equivalent to the many shitposts that are often heavily downvoted as part of circle jerks - where there are a few photos and a few lines of text. obviously this is all irrelevant though, because the upvoting and downvoting is all totally unbiased and based on solid logic that always serves Hive.

I'm pretty sure Hive wins if we're biased towards rewarding those who fight abuse, take time to curate new users and do other things than just mindlessly repost low effort content then throw a fit when they can't keep doing it and sell off.

wow, u guessed the price of this microwave, here's 2 hive, thanks for 50 hive post rewards, suckers!
I guess you'd need to speak to one of the Hive Vigilantes about that particular post too, since it was mostly upvoted by Marky Mark. Ultimately, Hive users don't get much say in who upvotes them, so penalising them for being upvoted is always going to be problematic.
Logic + integrity says: "don't upvote people that makes it look like you are participating in a circle jerk if you are claiming the high moral ground by downvoting people you say are doing the same thing". That kind of shit looks like classic mafia strategy that is used by dodgy corporations, politicians and actual mafia.. but hey, what do I know.
It doesn't take a genius to figure out the differences between these two authors. I just followed ewkaw myself as I haven't had much with her to do in the past but I can with a quick glance tell that she does a lot more for Hive and in that way I can respect that people manually vote or autovote her content. Marky removed his autovotes from him eventually so that's good but apparently this user decided to up the reposting and lazy posting even more until hivewatchers got involved.
Just cause someone sees something wrong doesn't mean she can't speak up about it and instantly have people come in to attack her just to fit their own narrative. Getting voted by a curation project that votes on 500+ unique accounts per week doesn't really scream vote-trading/circlejerking to me.
