Thank you @anyx. This actually answers a lot of questions of my own too. I am grateful for what steemcleaners do and applaud everybody working for the initiative. I have however had my own concerns. They are not so great that I would say "I don't support" steemcleaners, but they are just concerns I think with time will become a problem as the platform expands.
There are many non-members active in the SA-C channel, an unfortunately that includes trolls due to the nature of a public channel.
I have seen this for myself where users see the abuse channel as something to join and make themselves useful, and then wind up making big mistakes with their take on policing. I have seen some posts about how to address things like plagiarism, sort of like having "policing etiquette" and this is helpful, but it's not a long term solution. I almost feel like there needs to be a sort-of training period for people entering into this activity. I see that currently anybody who reports plagiarism can get payed by steemcleaners and that is a good thing. But are there not rules against users speaking on behalf of steemcleaners unless they have been officially affiliated (by going through a training period or just learning from those more experienced)?
Just my thoughts on an issue I imagine could get a lot worse if it isn't prepared for. Policing is necessary, but we need to be careful of people getting carried away with policing and causing people to feel unwelcome...
Thanks @beanz, talking to @clevercross and reading this has made me realize that we need to be more clear with the fact that "if it's not from the @steemcleaners account, its not from steemcleaners". We don't have "affiliates".
I think we need to make a post about it to clarify some of this stuff.
