I could be wrong, but i thought u cant realy just mass flag with multiple accounts, they have to be loaded with steempower, sure u could collect the free few bucks in steempower signup bonus, but honestly now with just 50 cents in steempower u wont end up making much fo an impact, one account with $100 in steepower will have same effect as 10 acounts with $1 in steempower, see what i mean?
so make as many accounst as u want, they wont amountto barely any steempower
I try to explain that to people that steemit is NOT redit and upvotes dont mattr, steempower matters!
maybe when they wre gving out $5 in steem it was possible to amass lots of fake accounts and yes many peopel abused that system, but not THAT many....plus al that steempower most likely ended up getting spent by those impulsive people abusing the new account signup bonus.
Maybe i am wrong though! I wasnt there so i shouldnt talk about it with much authority! maybe iu just liek arguing about thi stuff! I reread my comment andgo "Hmm i shouldnt be so sure of myself"
yeah it was probobly crazy with those botnets!
EDIT: i just looked at noganos posts, and he even admits to using his accounts for evil, well, this is just causing too much anxiety but its better we deal with these steemit internal issues now than later! now we know what can happen, better now than when we have hundreds of millions of users with millions earning their livelihoods off steemit and then everyone gets flagged and it causes an economic recession LOL fuck, but we should only be so lucky to have so much of the economy based n steemit!
people lash out for a reason, some can't hold back their fears and whatnot, hate and all that.
yeah it's power but you can have 50 accounts and split the power, run a script and flag a post, it's mostly money rules here, with some downtime, so that everyone can react.
Other than that I've been on your line of thought for a looong time, but to be frank saw that not many people are willing to sacrifice the convenience of making money compared to looking at the problems and doing just that,
So i got tired of arguing and just stopped caring, I have my own views I suppose, I don' get the constant blame pointing and lack of responsibility.
Twitter is crazy with botnets, facebook probably as well. Here they can only flood the chain I suppose.
++ It's people in the end of the day, actually people have been flooding the chain for a couple of months :D
nog is one of the many hating for some personal reasons, fights with whales and all that, I don't know him, I've only brushed past him here and there, I don't know him and how he thinks. But he was seriously trolled for months, I payed more attention to matrixdweller and skeptic's fights :D
