Things Like This Make Many New Users Discouraged and Leave Steemit
Today I decided to check the area of new publications, which is normally where you can find accounts that are bleeding the steemit ecosystem with their spam or plagiarism and today I found one in particular that I will show in the image below.
The Halo user has a reputation of 81, which suggests that she is a user who has been on the platform for a long time and knows what is good and bad, so if she has that knowledge why she does that type of act, I know that everyone does whatever with your investment because this is a free platform. In fact, if the main curator of steem-alliance @ hungry-griffin didn't want to vote for any of us anymore, it's his right.
Why new users are discouraged from seeing these acts
Good. If a new user has not been in steemit before and does not know how this ecosystem works, they will wonder why a simple photo without content generates 6 steem and I publish more than 500 words plus 5 edited photos or images that take me hours and my publication remains at zero. So that new user sees that the steemit ecosystem is unfair.
From what this user halo has investigated from the beginning he has been doing this type of act and no one has done anything to stop him, this user has multiple accounts where each account usually posts the same method of simple photos without text if we take account halo would be taking an average of 120 liquid steem from the platform, as there is halo, there are many accounts on the platform that use this system, better known as a vote farm.
Now I wonder where is @abuse-watcher who has not noticed this user, maybe he will have him on his blacklist but he lets him work in peace. Not only do we have to look at spam and plagiarism within each community, we have to take into account that most abuses are done outside of communities.
Does the @abuse-watcher account need more delegation?
Undoubtedly. currently they are what are working hard on the platform since @steemcleaners and @spaminator have been out of service for a long time. there was another one that was managed by @the-gorilla but this one stopped working. If @abuse-watcher were to receive a significant delegation and take away the reward for example from halo daily this user will eventually leave the platform because he will no longer be able to do his daily routine.
Sometimes you have to remove the reward from users who do these things since new users will try to imitate it to see if they get the same reward that the spammer earns, what it does is send thousands of spam daily to the platform.
Giving a few downvotes is necessary, that reflects that if there are people working on steemit for their improvement, not counting that they would be helping other users to increase their reward because they would be canceling the extra reward that usually comes out of the platform daily for spam or plagiarism content. .
