Bots everywhere? What the hell is going on? Greedy or Stupid? Flag them!!

in #bots7 years ago

Hello guys,

i have a little question. Can you tell me why tons of bots spread out of nowhere and crush this great platform? Are they thinking they could make easy money? Or are the guys who are doing this just stupid?

I mean the heavy load of fucked up comments like ,Oh great article, follow me, i follow you' is not pretty nice. It's destroying this great opportunity to create a platform from and for the people.

So here is my little question; Could you help me, could you help Steemit?

Then flag this shit if you see it! I would love to see everyone who would upvote this post to flag a comment, that fits to the upper example.

We should set a statement: You can try this bullshit, but you only waste your time and won't have any benefits from doing this troll actions.

Would be great if we could do that!

There are so many people, who invest their time to create quality content and to build up this community. If you think about this people, it's just not fair, that these posts get floated by tons of bullshit. Be the change.

Sure are bots? may be the increase of users in these months
even so there are bots of all kinds like the autovote with their accounts

Well, i mean there are people posting about 500 comments a day with similar or same content. I'm not sure if someone is stupid enough to do this manually. ( Well, guess there will be some people, when i have a look into this world ) But even if these guys are no bots, this can not be tolerated. I mean the autoupvotes, okay... Maybe they are not great, too, like shitty content boosted with some boosting-services, but this bullshit spamming just makes me angry.

jeah i mean bullshit like this. Flag this dude. And there are so many of these guys...

or look at @mrbenbutton he is posting pixabay images and boosting them with minnowbooster and other upvoting services. I'm sure this is a secondary account of anybodyelse, who wants to make easy money. In fact the bots are disturbing me much more, but i think this is not healthy for a platform like this, too.

Of course it's not nice for the steemit blockchain, but you need a lot of flags to get them out

jeah, and because i don't have them i ask for others help.
