RE: Round #2, Because I'm lazy... countering highest SP bot with highest Max Age, including shitposts, no resteeming though

in #abuse7 years ago

Have you ever considered that your unilateral decision to cut the age to 3.5 or 2.5 is insufficient and ultimately just a temporary measure to stop the problem you are trying to solve? I think a different approach could be far more effective.

The bots have a vested interest in not promoting shitposts as well. That is why many of them lowered the age on their own accord without any prompting by you. I think people underestimate the amount of crap on steemit. I'm not even sure a week would allow enough time for a group like steemcleaners to truly sift through all the bs.

I have an idea for a solution but I'm not sure you'd be interested in hearing it. I'll post it in a reply to this message. Regardless of whether or not my idea is any good, I think it would be more beneficial to consider less destructive courses of action as a community.

Sort:  

I belive that crowd sourcing might be able to provide a solution to this problem. What if there was a pool made up of steemians that were always available to quality check posts being submitted to voting bots? This pool could be set up on a per bot basis, or could be created as a stand alone service provided by a group such as Steem Cleaners. People would sign up to be a part of the pool on a paid basis, and prospective posts would be randomly assigned to them as they are submitted to the bots. It doesn't take that long to do a quick assessment on whether or not something is a shit post. They wouldn't be doing a full quality assessment. As the checkers verify the post, they will comment on it that it was checked by QC Inspector number 12 (or their username). The bots would see that and know the post was good to go. Pool members have an incentive to not blindly blindly approve because they will either get less work, or even be penalized. Another option is a rating system for checkers. Also, by putting their name on it, they take personal ownership of the assessment.

Funding would come from benefactors such as yourself as well as the bots themselves. They have a vested interest in keeping it going.

By allowing any Steemian to sign up, it enables parallel processing via human power, leveraging the most powerful computer on the planet, the human brain.

I'm not saying this idea is foolproof. There are major hurdles to overcome such as:

  • How do we get people to sign up to be part of the pool?

  • By what criteria do we rate QC analysts?

  • How do we randomly assign posts

  • How do we deal with less common languages

  • How do we determine if a QC analyst is available

  • What standards do we set for review time

  • Many more questions that would come up as we implement

As I may have said before, this is only one possible solution. What other solutions could come from this community of pioneers? You have brought visibility to the issue, now it's time to start focusing on solutions.

I belive that crowd sourcing might be able to provide a solution to this problem.

Isn't that basically the entire point of Steemit already? Crowdsourcing quality?

I don't know if I would call it the entire point, but yes it is for certain aspects. This effort, however, would be more centralized and organized, which are tenants to which the Steemit platform in general was opposed.

look here how much spend to promote his shit https://steemit.com/@checkthisout/transfers

Yes, I understand. My conversation is different, but your concerns are valid.

Thank you for read my comment.The bots upvote me because I want to help comunity.I DO THIS MORE THAN 3 MOUNTH FOR STEEMIT .SHAME ON @grumpycat .

@grumpycat is just a big time scammer. Looting Steemit for thousands of dollars per week and pushing arounf his large sp like a mini tyrant with a small penis. HE uses the bots he claims to have issues with and runs them on the numerous accounts he controls.

This whole 3.5 days business is just a front for him to appear to be doing anything at all. Gimp-cat is a stupid loser that can’t spell. He is vindictive and juvenille and probably some spotty kid in his whore mom’s basement that got lucky in a crypto long-shot.

Don’t worry, his days are numbered. As sure as the sun will rise tomorrow, the sun is going to set on that stupid meme for good.

@grumpycat is a wreckless parasite that is killing off his own host and he is too selfish and greedy to see beyond those cum soaked whiskers.

Have a nice day! @thedamus
