RE: Open Letter to @GrumpyCat

I think you misunderstood this comment:

He was not claiming he would go after abusers using the max age and highest sp, he would target bots with the highest SP and highest max age and flag the most ethical users (i.e users who did nothing wrong, and are using promotion responsibly to do the most damage).

Sort:  

Elaborate a little more on why this does the most damage? (Promise not to debate the point. Just want to know.)

I believe his idea is to harm legitimate users as much as possible to force bot owners to change.

How do you legitimately buy rewards?

We know activity by the largest accounts nullifies most of the smallest accounts.
It's just a fact in the math, when whales vote, everybody at the bottom loses.

Until everybody over 80mvests takes their hooks from the pool we will only see complaints and exits, imo.

I would suggest a sigmoid curve, but I like well behaving whales better than new rules.
That's just me.

Agreed. Btw, is that Emma Goldman in the icon? Followed.

Ok. I was hoping it was something less obvious and more complex. Does it work? I mean, I have noticed some bots changed, but I'm assuming it's because it's the right thing to do and not because people have been the victim of a drive by @grumpycat -ing. Is there any data that shows bots have decided to do this for the sake of their users rather than for the sake of the reward pool?

I want to believe that I did not misunderstand...Time will show.
