Normal Night of Log Creeping
Went to go make a new account, @whalewatcher. Unfortunately it was made a month ago.

What is interesting is that he only up votes one guy, @pingpong.
@pingpong
Inside this post is text like this.
These accounts lead to other accounts that do this.
@coinbooster
@myup
I believe they call this a good old fashioned bid bot circle jerk
Other big players seemed to be @voteboter and @votex.
@voteboter web
@votex web
Notice anything weird?
It seemed @hr1 may be partially complicit in this. He is shown to be a big player involved in this. @jerrybanfield is involved but only cause he is a bid bot and they pulled him in by bidding.
As far as I can tell, @hr1 is not a bid bot. So why the up votes for these accounts?
Flagging time?
I should be clear, I don't mean to flag @hr1. Hr1 could not be malicious at all. He up votes a LOT of people. I just think the question should be asked.
I'm sure hr1 could spread light on the issue

I am pretty sure hr1 is neither a bot nor malicious. (I honestly don't know) I have seen him randomly vote mine and other peoples posts (never consistently). This leads me to believe he has an algo set up similar to pharesim or something. I could be wrong, but his history doesn't seem too bad from what I see.
Thank you for stating this. I meant to put that he posts a lot and that I didn't mean to flag him. Just the bots.
I definitely see how that looked afterwards. Was trying to rush and go to bed. Haha.
Interesting that I find this post! I am impressed by your work here. I've noticed hr1 upvotes a lot of people. @hr1 upvotes my posts too, but to be honest he seems to only upvote my best work. I would be surprised if he's involved maliciously, but your evidence brings questions. I hope you get an answer!
I literally just got an hr1 upvote just a few minutes ago....
lol the digital circle jerk.... made me laugh... but damn man back in those trenches doing that real work... take my meager upvotes sir
Well @hr1 is yet to upvote any post of mine, but I don't think that qualifies him as malicious.
Maybe when he upvotes me, I'll be sure of that...
I remember when I got my first @hr1 upvote. I was really happy. I also worked harder on that post then any others, so I felt good about getting an upvote from him. Since he's upvoted me, I don't see him as malicious, but I have also seen him upvote questionable content. I can't remember what exactly he upvoted though. It made me think...
@biasnarrative good post
