RE: How to ruin a platform's reputation - Plagiarism

in #steemit7 years ago

Thanks for your contribution. Flagging in Steemit is sort of a Prisoner's dilemma. It is unpleasant and depletes the voting power, but if nobody does it we all lose by getting flooded by spam and plagiarism.

You are so right @ropaga! It's not really a fun thing to do and honestly, it's only a viable option against low-SP accounts if you don't want to risk heavy retalliation. Luckily though, most plagiarism is done by low-SP accounts, so we can safely warn/flag them. I am a bit sad about the voting power thing though, but I guess it's part of the deal!
