RE: Historical Facts about Daniel Larimer and his Contributions to the Blockchain Industry
Good points. But again couldn't anyone posting pirate material be flagged having the same effect? The guy who flagged and downvoted the comments here has a massive minus rating so obviously he revels in causing mischief. However he's successfully censoring innocent and harmless comment. Also... I've not come across selfvoting spam? Everyone I see self votes to give their posts a kick start. This is a necessity?
This post has suffered collateral damage from a 'whale war' between Dan and Berniesanders (who is another whale with many accounts). I believe his main account has a negative rep primarily because of Dan down-voting him. I don't know what their dispute is about.
Voting for your posts seems reasonable for most people (I've recently stopped though), but self-voting comments is considered by many to be voting abuse. There are factions who would like self-voting banned, but this would have unforeseen consequences too. I also have the account @steemreports and develop http://www.steemreports.com, which analyses many of these things.
Thanks Andy. I'll look into those accounts your have...you might be interested in Jerrybanfields post on Steemits top earners.
