@Themarkymark is profiting from selling votes to abusers on 5 day old posts, not for promotion, with abuse rate of about 99%!

Until @buildawhale Max Age has decreased to 3.5 day or less, anyone using it is at risk of getting Grumpy-Flagged.

To know what voting bot to use, refer to https://steembottracker.com/ and use those that have 3.5 day or less in the "Max Age" column.

I am also working on enabling more ways to stop shit post from being rewarded through my bots as that is something I never intended.

Whatever he's trying to do to limit the use of voting bot as a @Blocktrades "cash machine" is currently NOT working!

To learn more: https://steemit.com/abuse/@grumpycat/non-gumpycompliant-vote-sellers-are-now-to-be-used-exclusively-to-profit-from-the-reward-pool

Last round of @buildawhale paid votes. This is ridiculous!

Yet you vote with 1% votes for your own comments and remove them right before payout to replace them with 100% votes. The hypocrisy is legendary.

Not everyone that uses bots after your magical 3.5 days are abusers and the biggest abuser here doesn't have a leg to stand on to claim anyone is abusing anything.

A simple fact is 80% of Steemit is spam and will continue to be until a better solution to stop it comes around. If only you spent your time actually going after spammers and abusers you would accomplish so much more, but then you would have to flag yourself.

Beating around the bush, as always.

What % of users buying votes at more then 2.5 days with your bots are doing it for post promotion? ... and if removing the people who don't know how the trending algorithm works?

Your bots are one of the reason why there is so much spam. Unrewarded spam isn't so much of a problem.

until a better solution to stop it comes around

Witness shouldn't be waiting for solution to just "come around".

Don't rely on others to spend their stake to go after the spammers that you profit from empowering.

No, I say it like it is every time, you put a line or two with some threats, throw a bunch of flags then disappear. It's like having a conversation with a toddler with their fingers in their ears.

If changing to 3.5 days would eliminate the garbage, I would have done it day one. I agree leaving it at 6.5 days wasn't ideal, and I changed it immediately to five days when it was brought up, I was the first or all the bots to make a change, in fact, I was one of the two that even responded.

Witness shouldn't be waiting for solution to just "come around".

I'm all ears about a way to stop the garbage, I'm not waiting for something to come around, I'm implementing a global blacklist that can be shared across all bots, curators, and SteemCleaners. I active flag spammers and blacklist them from my bot. I have also donated a significant amount to SteemCleaners and actively worth with them on a daily basis.

You act as if this place isn't 80% spam and I are just purposely voting the few that do.

It's not worth it to flag someone's 1.5 day worth of abuse when they've made money for months going unchecked.

It's like having a conversation with a toddler with their fingers in their ears.

What is it you still don't get in these 3 points?

Gives us more time to flag them (3.5 days > 12h).

Increase their risk with STEEM/SBD price fluctuation.

More pending reward at stake.

I changed ours to 3 days, prove me wrong you are not just here to milk the reward system like the rest. Because outside of threats, that's all I see.

@grumpycat your words might carry more (any) weight if they didn't come from someone that should be flagged all day by all users. Like I said

Start a new account that isn't reproachable
Do not continue using the same abusive tactics against the reward pool
Vote responsibly

Then, and only then, will you get ALL people to hear you. Until then, the only ones that hear are the ones in your echochamber. Your words (and your actions) cannot be heard or comprehended by innocents until you do.

@grumpycat, the water is clean but you make the fountain dirty so no one wants to drink.
Once you stop hitting innocent people you will be agreed much more.

@grumpycat is full of it. That account uses 6th day voting bots so don't let it ever tell you how bad you are for doing it. hypocrisy.

@grumpycat promotes the wrong idea that whales (not community) are responsible for curation of content.

@grumpycat doesn't hurt voting bots. @grumpycat hurts you and me

lol, @grumpycat is a tiny portion of this users holdings. You'd be -19 rep by this point if their main account flagged you a few times. Have fun pissing in the wind thinking you have any clue what is going on here.
