6/1/2018. Tranparencybot Update.

As of 6/1/2018 - @Booster owned by @fyrstikken, has made the decision for the platform as to when, how much and where transparency is allowed on the platform. Since @booster has more than one million SP, there is really nothing that @transparencybot can do own its own and for that matter, it never has been about what it could do on its own.

I have no ill feelings for @fyrstikken, I believe he feels he is just protecting his business and I wish him much success on Steemit, yet I do believe that the rewards pool is being destroyed by bidbots in exchange for some quick profits.

As a result of these paid voters, which bypass the natural curation process, our platform's value and the price of Steem will continue to drop as long as bidbots are allowed to boost questionable quality articles onto our "front page" for the all the world to see and judge.

@Transparencybot will continue to post, although without community support, these posts will be hidden. It is up to you, community, it has always been up to you!


Here are yesterday's top upvoters. Thank you VERY much for the support, this is so VERY important to our long term success!

Why do we need more transparency?

Yes, transparency Bot is presenting information that IS available on the blockchain, but NOT otherwise available on Steemit.

Transparency allows all of us who care about this platform to know what is going on, directly see how it affects us, become more educated as to what can be done and then; hopefully, act in a way that protects our platform for years to come.


As of 4/18/18, @transparencybot will begin upvoting random posts that use the #nobidbot tag and have not used bidbots on the post.
The number of random votes it does a day depends on its remaining voting power. Later on, a filter to select only authors with reputation's of perhaps 60 (or 50) and below may be incorporated, but for now it is wide open.

This is a non-profit initiative, all funds received by or delegated to it will be used directly for this mission only. No one, including myself is being paid for any service or product. Please consider supporting it by upvoting this post and/or the comments left by @transparencybot.

A VERY huge thank you to our delegators!

My campaign started with this article dated 2/6/18 and continued forward with multiple articles that used bidbots and futher exposed how bidbots could be used to bring ANY article, both of high quality and low, onto the trending list.


It reads:

No really, this is a post on nothing of use, not anything in particular and certainly nothing worth upvoting.

But it may well serve to be a very useful tool in demonstrating some of the techniques used by many Steemian's, whales and minnows alike to grab a few (or a lot) of votes for rather marginal or useless articles.

If you have ever wondered why some articles you read and some authors you run across have SO many upvotes and so many followers, well stay tuned --- I'll be exposing some of these techniques is the days ahead.


All profits for the article and the remaining articles using bots were donated!

@Transparencybot is a continuation of the campaign by many to bring quality back to the trending list.

@transparencybot You have earned a random downvote from @elsteemo for upvoting your own spam comments. Why don't you give these people who don't use bidbots your whole vote? It's pretty easy to mass spam and upvote all the spam isnt it?

Because I have a negative reputation, I have to vote on my comment or they are not visible.

Ouch -7, that's impressive. Looks like you are doing the right thing. Keep up the good work. Thanks for letting me know who owns booster didn't have the time to look it up. I will be removing my witness vote. Booster is attacking other people who disagree with using bidbots.

Yes, -7 is really not a reflection of where the community want me, just a single person. In addition, he downvoted everyone that I resteemed and many that simply upvoted.

Then left this reply.

It will be interesting to see how the community responds to this kind of leadership.

@Transparencybot will continue to post, although without community support, these posts will be hidden.

Well, it looks like you have no community support. 🤣

Actually, he has a lot of community support. But Steemit's ecosystem allows wealthy individuals to have more control than masses of minnows.

Would you like masses of minnows to control the world ?

Yes. That is literally what democracy means.

Unless you mean literal minnows, in which case, lol.

democracy

Thankfully it's nothing but a show 😉

You got that right. Things always have a way of evening out. You can do this!
