Bruh i think they are going way to far,when i started here ,i did not go to such an extent - its normal for a minnow to ask for little help not to beg like that ,like your life depends on the Upvote.
Perhaps my attitude will change over time, but I still give them a link to a post that explains why that sort of behavior hurts them more than it helps and gives them a better solution.
Its got REALLY bad over the last few weeks @halo - we need to educate these minnows during the doldrums period so when things really take off in a few weeks it's not hell on earth!! Thanks for your support as always - and for your upvote too :)
I am thinking about adding this message to the bottom of every one of my post.
Please do not spam my post , by doing so you assure yourself I will not go to your blog and I will not follow or upvote you. I will most likely flag you.
If we would have been spamming like the minnows are now, when we started the whales would flag us, I seen them doing it. I don't really like to flag but I did not get to where I am now by spamming other people and I don't expect it done to me.
BAD MINNOWS!!We didn't spam as minnows as there was no one on the platform to spam @halo! Ha ha! There were only 4000 people on here with a Steem price of $0.24 when I joined up. No FAQ, no guides and only Craig Grant to help me. These minnows have it too easy now, so they graduate to spamming a mass audience v.quickly!
newcomers should not be beggar.
Correct @rocksg :)
Ouch! But I like it. Good initiative!
Good to get the public message across during the doldrum times!
Indeed!
Yeah I usually go through and flag those poor dudes...
They need to be educated not flagged - most fall into line when told!
LMAO!!
:)
yes..this became frustrating
VERY FRUSTRATING!!
yes, btw, 69
Tssk tssk, I'm a minnow and I don't even ask for upvotes or follows on my posts.
Happy Friday to you✨
80% don't either - but a tough 20% DO!!!!
I bet!
eish ,the operation is in full swing now.Watch out minnows the Predator is coming for you,
SECRET- Simply stop begging!!!!!!
Yup!

MINNOWS THIS IS BAD

Trying to emphasis the point seems its falling on deaf ears.
Their replies will be in another post :)

.
You are indeed a brave @bola! :D
Hahaha
Don't be a startin' that please Sir thing!! LOL!
Oh hell no, was just visualizing what it looks like when people beg for upvotes
Not good - I'm 99.9% sure :(
Yeah, saw someone spam about 15 comments on the same post, begging for upvote and follow with link, was not cool.
15! Holy crap! That is super spammy!!! :(
BAHAHAHA @mindhunter calling them out
LMAO!
lol
Yet more LOL! :D
hahaha
Incoming minnow feedback! LMAO!! :)
oh no haha I see I 3 did you get dv into the basement?!?!?
I think we've all seen them.
Can I ask what your response has been to them, if any?
People coming here form other platforms have been trained, like Pavlov's dog, to do this kind of shit.
Beating them like a puppy that has peed on the floor doesn't correct the behavior.
Pavlov's canines are indeed unchangeable my friend!! They are over-conditioned!
Perhaps my attitude will change over time, but I still give them a link to a post that explains why that sort of behavior hurts them more than it helps and gives them a better solution.
Send me that link!!
The first good one I saw was @ shayne 's post here: https://steemit.com/steemit/@shayne/new-to-steemit-follow-begging-will-destroy-you-do-not-do-it-here-s-why
My lalest attempt attempt was a bit less polished but may communicate to Muricans: https://steemit.com/motivation/@theblindsquirl/how-not-to-behave-in-a-library-or-on-steemit
Excellent! Thanks for the links - I'm gonna start using them now. BTW check out this misguided minnow??
Some of my post was based on actual comments I've seen too.
BTW, THANK YOU for asking about what to send them. There are far too many people here trying to curry favor with whales by pounding on this.
You Sir, have earned my respect.
I am getting people spamming my posts almost daily

Like me you have good SP, so if you see an errant minnow spamming just flag em'! I DV'd one last nite from $2.35 to $0.00! LOL! Hee-hee! :D

Half of them don't even give an upvote or follow to me and then spam my post and think I am going to go to the link they just spammed.
LATEST OFFENDER! ... it just ain't gonna happen @halo LOL! :D
My mind is dirty when I read like me ... I thought that immidiately :
I know I need a good psychiatrist.
Great tune! HUGE Cardigans fan :)
Misguided minnow????
They are, and they keep thing I am a man! Next title... I am not a man Alessandra.
It may not be worth the time to do this. I'm not sure. I feel like most of these minnows will fall away on their own without the effort.
The 6 week honeymoon period always finds out the weak minnows!
EXCELLENT way for me to mute someone...
Most mutes are mute as most spammers have fled after the 6 week honeymoon period is over!!
I didn't know that...
makes sense.

Looks like you've gone from bot-hunting to minnow beggage (I know it's a word. It has to be.). LOL!
Been all over the Steemit forest - done everything man! Minnows and bots ... seen em' all!!
