"A Single Drop"
A Single Drop
Nothing as miraculous under the Son,
A globe of glass, a world all its own.
Millions of beings of minuscule size,
Floating in liquid without flesh or bone.
More organized than any human city,
Circling and sparkling, and breathlessly pretty.
Unlike our world it can fall and hit hard,
Without any damage to all those inside.
One little drop then becomes many,
Decentralization, at the curbside.

why would you downvote my post? For what reason? @mepatriot I need my answer!
I almost never directly downvote, but I do use a "trending cleaner" for people who unfairly use bots to get fake upvotes for their posts. Perhaps that was what got you...? Have you noticed the sharp drop in SBD the past couple days? That is why.
People are getting the word that this place is scammy and spammy, and we've got to work together to clean it up, or we all lose.
@mepatriot I understand your concern dear mate but I am not using bots for ROI instead it is a resource with which I can gain traction. We all want our content to reach as many as it could. Bots are not the only reason for the price drop in steem. There are other factors also.
I request you to please lift your downvote from my account. I have never done this to you and i expect the same.

You need to address your concern to:
https://steemwhales.com/clean-trending/
If they flag your post in trending, it is because it has 90% or more FAKE UPVOTES. Unfairly "gaining traction" means that everyone else is unfairly gaining NO traction. You are damaging our community with such behavior, so please cease and desist.
That is definitely the biggest reason for the price drop. The word just got out on Bloomberg this week that we are known for this sort of activity.
If https://steemwhales.com/clean-trending/ removes your post from their list of items to be downvoted, than I will no longer downvote you.
:)
Please explain your reasons for Downvoting my post.
You seem to be unfairly using your downvotes for posts that have clearly got immense positive reviews from the community. Yet, you come across and downvote posts with automatic bots without even reading if it adds value or not?
Doesn't seem to me like the right thing to do. I am not downvoting you, but I need the answer. Also, remove your downvote.
If you are using bots to unfairly and secretively upvote posts, there is no way for you to tell if the community "have clearly got immense positive reviews." I happen to know that the function downvotes only people that typically have more than 90% FAKE upvotes on their "trending posts."
Please STOP THIS BEHAVIOR. You are destroying our website and our community!
lolx. secretively upvote posts?
Dude the post is on trending where's the question of hiding?
The Bots are in no way considered as wrong nor against the community rules. And they are run by the same people who are running this platform. Please get your facts right.
It's not a website. You clearly don't have any idea what's going on here. Please focus on what you are good at.
I don't give a damn about a mere few dollars. It's the word and knowledge that we are trying to pass on to as many people as possible on this platform.
May be you are week at maths but the odds are not very great for you. it's a 400:1 ratio with 70 comments in favor discussing the blog. Yet, you flagged the post and ran away without even posting a comment why you did so? Does not seem like you are a community guy when you take a stealth operation on someone who's been long here..
I don't mean to be rude. And if you are getting the feeling that may be I am? Then I am sorry but we have been long here and discussed all these issues long before you came to know about it. Thanks.
The "question of hiding" is clearly found in that there is nothing on your post
that says "96% of the 'upvotes' here are created by paid upvote bots." Without
such a disclaimer, the community is left believing that all these people...real people...
approve of your post, when they DO NOT.
Using bots to get 90-97% of your upvotes is just plain wrong. I don't care who else
agrees with you that it's all just hunky dory. It's killing this site, and I will
continue to use:
https://steemwhales.com/clean-trending/
You'll need to take up your complaints with them.
And, no, I am not "week (sic) at maths (sic)." I got an "A" in
college calculus...not that this has anything to do with anything.
You are ignorant. So, I am leaving you here. But if you come next time downvoting my post bragging about some non-sense policing that you clearly don't even understand, I will make sure you get paid for it.
I appreciate your concerns for the community, I truly do. But you don't understand what's going on here.
Please don't respond. I don't want to take this further. I am done and dusted with such debates. Thanks.
So typical. You have no argument, so you just leave a threat and run.
FYI...I was under continuous steemit.com blackouts for the past three hours (except for one minute when I got that reply to actually post 52 minutes ago,) as was one of my best friends on the site who signed up the same day I did. This happened immediately after the two big upvote-bot dolphins above claimed they didn't like being caught in the act.
Just saying...
Has anyone else had any issues with the site this morning beside me and my buddy??
Thanks in advance...
