Two things you did here.
- Your post is lacking detail. If you were going to boost it this much with paid votes, there should be much more detail. It does not seem indicative of much effort and is a misuse of the bots. I recommend if you are going to boost a post over $100 to try to put in more effort into it.
We typically call it bid bot @buse (I don't want this post tagged as that category so replaced a letter) when users use paid votes to significantly overvalued content but I am chalking this up to a case of unintentional misuse of which I hope you will learn from.
- This is tag abuse and was pointed out by another user. Just because @steemmonsters is on the same blockchain as @smartsteem does not mean your post suddenly has relevance to Steem monsters. Please, try to use relevant tags in the future.
I hope you will take heed of my advice. I imagine that this abuse was not intentional so will not be requesting additional flags on your post.
If you would like to help fight abuse on the Steem blockchain and educate users via incentivizing flag comments such as this, check out @steemflagrewards.
I hope we are able to work together in the future.
Hi, just saw your comment.
I did not mean to tag abuse using @steemmonsters.
I thought I was helping to bring attention to the project by mentioning it. "My Bad"
Can you please show me/point out in the Steemit manual where it states definition of fight abuse on the Steem Blockchain and what values and who decides the values of the posts or of the upvotes from Bots?
Thanks.
No problem, @healthiswealth.
Here are a couple of resources that I believe will help you.
Steemit FAQ Section on Abuse
Steem BluePaper -Mostly Page 1
Note that bid bots did not exist when the whitepaper was created and was not addressed in the BP and that means we need to use our best judgement as to how we preserve the integrity of the proof-of-brain mechanism.
There is no crowd wisdom in the bots so it requires a user being more or less honest about the value of their contribution. There is a lot of dishonesty out there and it was MUCH worse before we began our work with SFR.
Much of the abuse we deal with is outside of the scope of @steemcleaners as they typically refrain from addressing voting abuse. This was more or less the impetus for why SFR came about as a supplement to what SC does.
Sometimes people change and we make friends / allies. Other times, the dishonest users merely adjust their methodology. We are constantly adapting. It is a struggle that does not seem to end as long as money is on the table.
My vision is for the long term success of the platform and a culture that promotes the type of work ethic that will help that happen.
P.S. Remember Steemit is the company that got things started with the blockchain Steem. The blockchain itself is independent of this company.
