RE: SPAM, milking, doxing, threatening, what else have you got?

in #witness-category4 years ago (edited)

Spam always exists (but there are more now), but not the doxing, threatening, porn comments, and intentional milking and moving-to-hive spam. and IMHO, forcing users to move to hive isn't a good idea.

Sort:  

I would be very surprised if it turns out that there is more spam and milking now than let's say 2 years ago. Would have to see some data on that.

Also there's been spam abuse both by bernie before, as well as others like fulltimegeek many times. It is not new.

I just find it disingenuous to see the communications in the softfork account, as well as in the recent Twitter messages, paint this as what "Hive witnesses" (in plural) are doing. As if you don't know that it is just 2-3 people. At least I have done nothing of the sort, nor anything close to it, and also condemn it. Both because it is petty and childsih, but also because it should be in everyone's best interest to allow each side to build the best products they can make and bring new people into crypto.

Edit: Threats are ofc also completely unacceptable. I was surprised to get my first ever death threat myself on Steem back in 2017. So I guess that too happened before as well.

Do you think there is more spam and other forms of abuse because Steemit removed their delegations from all the abuse fighting initiatives?

LOL. i just power down on HIVE and meanwhile do some curation.

Think up better lies, you aren't powering down on Hive, anyone can see that https://peakd.com/@justyy/wallet removed as a mistake, I misread the wallet.

Are you powering down your 50+ other accounts you use to milk rewards on Steem and Hive?

Ah, my bad, removed my original comment, glad to see you're leaving Hive

I kinda have to.. as I am apparently hated or not welcome on HIVE.

Understand that, that's the reason I'm powering down on Steem and leaving
