RE: PLEASE JOIN ME IN FLAGGING A SHIT POST & REWARD POOL ABUSER

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

agreed. the current system requires that either a large whale swing their weight and smack down a spammer, or a lot of smaller steemians to get together and target someone, both of which require a centralized gathering of power to tackle the problem of egregious abuse. The platform itself needs to be able to deter abuse automatically, but that kind of solution is tricky as well; close one loophole and they find another. I'm both excited and scared for SMT's for the very same reason.

I suppose it is like anything else you just keep fixing it until they run out of loopholes. I think one of the problems is that while the idea a anarchist self governance is a good idea for a platform, there needs to be some sense of leadership, rules, guidelines, policies etc that are not flexible.
