I am being honest and blunt. I do not see the need to beat around the bush when you are saying things like why should I flag people and other irrelvant things I have never asked for. I also never asked you to fix it like change the code. I simply thought you could talk to someone about it.
It is not being forceful to ask for help. Of course when you trivialize the thing I am asking for help about then emotions will run high.
Where do you suggest I find this @promoted to ask him? We have tagged in numerous times and he hasn't joined the conversation.
So what do I do next?
Do you want me to write a post? Why can't you do that yourself, link me, and politely ask for me to promote it?
I am frustrated when people just expect me to do things for free and dont consider how much time and effort this shit takes me. I appreciate your support, I will continue to support you, but I will likely not go much beyond a basic post that tags @promoted yet again and suggests that he implement a blacklist feature or only vote on users that put a minimum in the promoted feature.
Btw, if you figure out some magic trick of getting users to respond, then get me some witness votes from @thejohalfiles or @hendrikdegrote or @pumpkin. Steem has a SHITTY notification system and not everyone gets on SteemIt.chat
Hey @promoted, you are voting $0.05 for users when they promote a post with $0.01. Please stop.

@promoted is a bot. Be another 50 years before it comes in for a conversation I would say. You are making yourself a public figure so must realize that people will come to you with issues that are in your area of expertise. That is just what you signed up for. I understand you probably have a 1000 people asking you for this and that. That would for sure bug the hell out of me but that is what social media is about. Community and helping eachother.
I know you want to make money but fixing isssues like this is what is going to make you money. Steemit is in beta so fixing exploits and bugs should be a priority when found. Not when the issue becomes widespread.
Again all I expected from you was not to be dismissive. Wow this turned into a whole thing. haha I am sorry about that at least. Really regret this convesation is on your bot page. Don't mind if you flag it.
Nah i agree with transparency. This isn't a bad conversation at all. I am watching TV and taking a break from work, just replying to you cause like you said I signed up to be engaged.
If it was something I could do man I would. The best way to combat this behavior is to, like I mentioned, get the true whales in #steemitabuse to help. People like @nextgencrypto stay in there the majority of the day using their MASSIVE SP for shit like this.
I get it that you feel comfortable with me, and I enjoy that, but I am a small fish in the pond here. I have been on Steem for less than 2 months. I'm glad I am becoming known and a type of public figure. That is my goal.
But someone in the infancy of their campaign should be choosy about the battles they choose to fight.
If a user is doing stupid shit, a few flags here and ther often compel them to learn better.
It is such a waste of SP though. Anything promoted for less than $1 will most likely never be seen so why even have it as an option. I guess I came to you with it because I have talked to you a few times and thought netuso would know what to do ^^
I plan on investing in Steemit slowly but surely for the next couple years and am only trying to look out for my own investment. To do so means I can't ignore easy bugs. I just don't see why they would be ignored I guess. Just in my head it is something that could be fixed in 30 minutes once the right person saw it.
You type lightning fast.
That I do (type fast).
I dropped your info, the link to this thread, and the link to your other thread in #steemitabuse for you. Perhaps they have a creative solution
Thanks m8
At this stage I should leave you be with a thank you :)
I do know it is hard and you only have two hands. I may also be a bit short tempered at the moment but I have good reason to be. Check out my last post if your curious. It is a depressing read so I wouldnt really recommend it haha
