Help needed! - Urgent!

You probably have noticed already that this alert service receives a lot of downvotes from @mack-bot (Yes, we contacted @mack-bot and @patrice, but never got a reply!), and it's likely that it will not survive long anymore due to the fact that it is a very new service and account which hasn't got enough reputation to counter these downvotes.

It was never indented to setup a spam service, but just a very fresh alert service which continuously scans various news from various sources to find related news items of interest for our readers as they happen. For all news items, the original sources are shown, with a direct link to the original source.

We do hope that there are some Steemians out there who understand and value a service like this. If yes, then please HELP US NOW and upvote or resteem this post.

Let try to keep Steemit a place for open minds!
