RE: Is there an Etiquette Guide for Steemit?
What does my financial status have to do with what I see as an abuse on the blockchain?
There are plenty of poor people on the chain, much poorer than I am, and I would rather see sharepool allocation going to accounts by way of upvotes from others. In other words, earned, not taken because you feel your comment was "pretty damn good". I see bid bots as an exploitation to steal from the sharepool.
It's ok if you disagree buddy, we're all entitled to an opinion. You won't see any upvotes or downvotes from me. I can't speak for the accounts that are combating this type of behavior. You can call it censorship, but let's not pretend we both do not know what you're doing here. Taking rewards away that you took from the reward pool is not censorship. Downvoting for no other reason but to censor you is censorship.
Keep taking, the poor will stay poor here I'm sure, because of self entitled behavior like this.
EDIT: After seeing you boost comments to the moon that are simply links and nothing more, I am definitely going to downvote a parasite like you. You can call it "censorship", stealing from the limited sharepool, while there are truly poor people here trying to earn a living. People like you make me fucking sick.
Every time you downvote, you are kicking that person's coins into the grid-pit.
All the coins from the grid-pit get collected by the conveyer-belts and proportionately dumped into the buckets that didn't get kicked over.
The number one benefactor of all this bucket-kicking is g.o.o.d.d.r.e.a.m who makes roughly 3 times the average of the top 20 earners. The number two benefactor of all this bucket-kicking is, and I found this shocking, none other than s.t.e.e.m.c.l.e.a.n.e.r.s LINK TO TOP 10
That's why you always hear distant laughter when you give someone an upvote that doesn't meet the minimum payout or on an old expired post... It just falls through to the grid-pit to get scooped up by the top "earners".
You want to make change around here right?
If that is the case, then why do you take the effort to talk in ways which will not tag @steemcleaners and @gooddream, and all the others that you speak so lowly about?
What is the fear, you can simply mute them and look the other way right?
Good idea!
But I thought muting and looking the other way was the solution to problems here, instead of confronting head on?
@logiczombie, your logic is starting to become very confusing to me my friend, if not contradictory.
If you absolutely hate or disapprove of someone, you can mute them.
I don't hate or disapprove of anyone, I'm just trying to figure out what's going on by asking questions.
You can do as you see fit, and so can everyone else. If people can't defend their downvotes with some coherent moral theory, then they simply need to admit that they are purely opinion based downvotes. You can't really say "these people don't deserve steem, but these other people deserve steem" without explaining the salient difference between the two groups.
It should be a very simple matter to explain why bid-bots and self-voters are downvoted. Where's the rule? What's the real-world-correlation, what moral principle are you defending?
Because at this point, it looks like they're just walking down the street and kicking over the tip-cups of all the street performers they don't like and then scooping up the nickles and dimes that roll into the sewer.
Good idea!
So make a post asking why, boost it to the moon, and you will get answers from them! 😃
Overall I think my posts are way underpaid and undervalued.
Do you need money? I apologize if that sounds mean but some of the things on here seem strange.

I think it "earned" at least 10 times what my average blog post made with using bots maybe even 100 times.
I think we need better leadership on Steemit but fortunately we do have some on steemleo.com.
FYI Steemit is somewhat of a ponzi scheme. 99% of accounts will earn hardly anything at all. If you are on Steemit purely for the earnings I think you should re-evaluate things. Originally I thought there was some potential for earnings on Steemit and maybe their was for me but yeah.
Did you read my comments? I spent like 1 Steem which is like 15 cents on this comment. Maybe I got lucky with the bot but still. What was my net earnings like 16 cents? lol You think 16 cents is an excessive reward to help someone.
I may have overly promoted a couple of my comments but I was doing a PROTEST!!! lol
After over 12,000 posts/comments on the Steem blockchain I think I should be allowed to overly promote one or two comments which was done as a protest.
I'll probably protest some more but I might need to use some Steem to buy Leo.
zOIks, you might want to ease back on the ad-hominems!!
I think it is better now. I might have been a little fired up and been trolling "a bit" much. :) lol
Very well, I'll refrain from engaging with you from here on out since you have now insulted my comprehension skills.
Best wishes to you.

Did you downvote my post because of the pic? I took it off.
I also modified one of my comments that you downvoted.
Please let me know if you see any issues with my blog and or comments.
I got a little backed up and confused I think Steemd is better than only going by replies but I was busy. I assume the pic was why you downvoted the post? If so please remove it.
I'm not sure if I should apologize or not?
I have made LOTS of comments since yesterday so I think this thread is pretty much DOA. :(
If you figure out what I was talking about please let me know. lol
I did modify the comment. Thank you for not downvoting that comment. If the image was what was wrong please consider removing your downvote.
Best wishes to you too. Usually I think my posts and comments and threads are great but even after editing yeah. :( #lost lol
🤪¯_(ツ)_/¯
#skills ;) lol
