STEEM FLAG REWARDS PILOT!

Good evening Steem Flag Force,

I wanted to go ahead and get the ball rolling with the pilot while we are still hammering the juror process. I believe I have found some good flagging activity. The post has already paid out and I would like to get this flagger something back for their service fighting what I strongly believe is reward pool rape but I will let you be the judge.

@troglodactyl wrote a post about the rationale for the flag. There are many post of this type taking rewards away from authors that add value to the blockchain employing gimmcks like this.

Shortsighted reward farming spam

Imagine if you will, a SBD lottery service goes on like this and there are many what the collective effect would be. They split the SBD rewards to those upvoting them. Well, where do you think the Steem Power goes? I'll tell you where it goes. It's being powered down as I write this.

Additionally, @simplemoney is doxxing @troglodactyl for the flag. We should absolutely not tolerate this kind of behavior.

Additionally, it looks like some of those that have been participating in these SBD contests are now flagging @troglodactyl not because of the quality of posting but because they are upset that they are going after this scheme that they are caught up in.

The users upvoting have become pawns in their game. Meanwhile, these accounts are gaining influence not to mention reputation for offering something of little value. If we turn a blind eye now, these profiteers will continue to exploit our beloved blockchain.

I will be conducting further investigative analysis of these services. Please, consider supporting with your upvote to give something back to our brave flagger. Also, please resteem for visibility.

Stay tuned and flag on!
