RE: Steemit Winter Update: 2017 reflection, our Vision Statement and Mission, and a look forward
Actually, I appreciate you bringing this up. While I certainly applaud the Steem Team's effort, and am so grateful for this remarkable platform... as a newbie, I have some concerns about these bots.
Is there a plan in the works to counter-act them? I've encountered many Steemians with the same questions and concerns. Thank you, @crossroad for addressing this very pertinent issue.
I know they're working on tightening restrictions on signups to make them more organic, for starters. But as far as a steem-wide effort, I haven't heard of anything other than vigilante work. A lot of us are out there trying to scrape up the algae at the bottom. I have a "stupidcomments" post, and I tag spammers (or, give noobs a link to how to comment so they can create positive feedback on here). But other than the small users out there like me and a few others I know, I'm not seeing a combined effort yet.
I have a couple of people I'm thinking of getting together with to make it more of a thing.
Ive seen your cut and paste spam replies, and they are patient, gracious, and brilliant. Sadly to your vigilante point though I have to ask you to keep doing them, because there is no way to stop it, nor is there a way to stop bots.
Am I a bot? Or not?
See the problem?
Thanks!
The answer is below.
Is it sad that this is the nicest flower I've ever received? lol Thanks - for the flower and the answer.
If you are on the profile pictures you probably receive tons of flowers each day ;)
He's smooooth, real smoooooth! :) ^
blushing Evidently, there are no gentlemen, such as yourself @crossroads, around me.
@littlescribe, thanks for the reply. I am aware of a new effort to clean up ONE troll, but I think I saw you on in the comment section of @fulltimegeek 's latest post. :D
Your blog is overwhelmingly beautiful. It literally left me speechless. Please stay great and humble. People like you can cure this placeand the world, i believe.
Aww, you are too kind. We are all in this together, right? And we are ALL making the world a better place, just by participating in Steemit. Well, most of us. LOL
