All Participants Won: September 15 2019
Hello friends🕺,
Thanks for dropping by,
First off, nobody won my contest, I was thinking it was a giveaway and it still is. I have given out 1 SBI shares to all the 6 people that made an attempt and they are:
The Answer
Some of you got what was to be removed and that is the banana the thing nobody got correctly is STEW. @practicaleric mentioned soup but I have never tried such combinations before and that was just the closest.
Back to my report, I finally got an automaticwin after a long absence in that arena. I slept past 2 am and woke up by 5 trying to come up with ideas for a landing page so I took a walk immediately I could see far enough. Lol.
Automaticwin
I also went for a walk in the evening and when I got back I felt really angry when I opened @upvotebuilders blog and saw 12 downvotes, I thought to myself, what could I have posted that brought this upon the community, alas, we didn’t do anything wrong, nothing was wrong with our post, someone apparently is in a downvote war with one of our members and because that member tagged downvoter in one of his comments on our post the downvoter decides to give us a load of downvotes.
In everything that HF21 was to bring, this is the one area I have always felt was wrong from the word go. It is like giving kids loaded guns. Now a lot of small accounts are hammered and their balances cleared while most of the big accounts don’t receive the impact of such downvotes as -$0.12 of $20 isn’t anything but -$0.12 off $0.09 doesn’t show love at all. Is the man/women earning $0.09 the one milking the blockchain? NO. They just want a place to speak their views.
I love Chris De Burgh, he has so many songs to his credit, today, I think love for the people who wrong you us is what I should consider playing. Hope you enjoy the music.

Great job on your steps @ketcom. The downvote thing drives me crazy too. There really isn’t any love in that. It’s really unfortunate that this seems to be the way of things for now😔 I’m hoping in time, something will change. It’s sad really.

My dear that is what we humans are capable of doing. Instead of uplifting people some are busy and enjoying making people sad. It is a pity. Cheers.
Heya, I noticed all your leases on dlease.io. I am filling some, but I can do a fairly large 5K lease at 19.1% if you like to cancel those and consolidate into one.
Thanks a lot Chief, i actually do it this way so that it is easier for me to extend them. Thanks for the ones you're taking up. It is of big help.
Cool, no hassle. :)
Loads of thanks, I've put in two 500 offers at 19.1APR. 👍😍

Sweet, i grabbed them. :)
hey i like the direction you are taking with your business. thankyou
Appreciate it, thank you!
@michealb Did you know you actually gave that downvoter an upvote? 😔
i do all sorts of weird stuff :) i had left him a comment but remembered he had muted me so i deleted it.
edit: fixed it
Thanks a lot.

Hi @thecryptodrive, i just placed some lease offers for @upvotebuilders and dlease at 19.2% and 18.9% hope you can take up some of them. Loads of thanks.
Sure, I'll pick up the 19.2% ones
with downvotes some are doing it on posts that look like daily automated stuff. I think SBI may also take some flack. anything that is seen as not proof of brain. ie SBI can be seen as same as paying for bids to upvote yourself to make extra steem.
edit: oh just re read your post - reason: war between members.
Yes, it was a war between 2 steem users and one was a member of @upvotebuilders.
PS: I just received a -$10+ worth of downvote on this post. It seems to me I can't complain or talk about the topic @michealb

traf downvotes stuff that people buy bids for / delegate to to get votes etc - against proof of brain, what is the steemmonsters vote?
that would my guess,
Wow!!!! You've made my day. Loads of thanks.
Steemmonster is a bid bot for a DEC. Leo, AAA, Sports, Neoxian and Pal are some other tokens I can think of too that burn their tokens via the bid bot on steembottracker.

times are changing,
Bummer on the downvotes - pick on the little guy and let the whales on trending go free? Sad.
Anyway, good music you provided today and a great count for you today. You are working hard for Steem and we appreciate it.
This is sad @ketcom.......Thank you for what you do! You are so important to the community. I will DM you in discord in a few. Cheers
You too @silvertop, you're doing great here too. If we all show some love may be the heart of the hardened will be made softened.
Also thank you so much for the SBI, and congratulations on the automatic win!!!👍💪🤗
I had to drag myself out of bed early this morning..... Worship band, and I ran the sound board as well...😴

Thank you!! :)
You're welcome. Do have a nice day.
Great stepping 💪 and congratulations on the automaticwin 🙌. By soup I meant stew or something watery considering the dry fried chicken and dry roasted yams.
I so feel you on the down votes. They should probably put a cap on the posts that can be downvoted. Posts earning less than $5 should be made impossible to downvote.
Wishing you an awesome Monday ahead. Enjoy your day 👍 😁

Wow, thanks man. I actually would have never guessed stew. I thought the stew is the end result of preparing all the ingredients, and it's not a separate item?
Anyway, well done on the automaticwin, I just also had one. But do not forget to put in the automaticwin tag!!!!
On the downvoting issue. I think downvoting on Steemit has more negative than positive results. It increases the power of whales, people become less free to post something because someone might be against it, some might even no longer interact with some others on the platform because of it etc. I looked into the downvoter I saw that he actually has a negative social score here. Steemit should at least change the rules for downvoting: the downvoter himself should have a positive score.
