Nice one Dan.

Anything by @taifkhan will do nicely, no engagement (apart from downvoters stating reasons) and some posts in the $80 - $90 range.

Can we stop abusing this service? I was flagged for no reason on this post when i spent money airdropping an eos steem engine token to 16 thousand steemians

please dont let people flag posts thata re actualy bringing projects to steem

The @crystalliu account and its related network always need some attention. It’s tricky as some of the posts are done in a way that they don’t show in the normal Steem feed. You really have to follow the wallet memos to find which posts were bid botted, like this one:

Nice, consider @crystalliu on my rekt list!

He's been on SFR's forever. In fact the last few months have been just him and his alts. Good to hear your helping get rid of this idiot.

This. So much this.

That guy also exploits the glitch with undefined tags so most of the bid bot posts cannot be seen unless you are trying to look for them.

Yeah, and I assume the “shell game” of bouncing his liquid Steem between accounts is just to clutter the wallet and make it harder to find info. I can’t think of any other reason for it!

Downvoted that post with 100%. The funny part is that they posted it on dtube and used bidbots without taking benefactors rewards into account!

This feller right got caught for copy/paste and bid bot abuse. Basically, just grabbing a ingame screenshot and using the same text. Rinse and repeat. I think we could afford to shave a bit more off those rewards. What do you think?

Here's a not-so-friendly type Dan,

There's a history that comes attached to that.

Good morning @theycallmedan! If possible, I would like you to review this account that I am going to leave here. Click here. I have carefully reviewed and he has been abusing the platform by giving himself votes, plagiarizing, copying and pasting, and abusing bidbots from other accounts to which Steem transfers them. Which makes me suspect that all those accounts belong to the same person.

I don't dare mention it in this comment for fear of retaliation, since besides abusing the platform it also retaliates when other users make a complaint or tell it that they don't agree with its way of proceeding. And it has enough voting power to affect its reputation (has 37,912.489 Steem Power) and make other people's publications invisible, as I have already seen it do.

Anyway, if I'm making a mistake, please let me know with a comment. I will be very grateful to you as soon as I receive your reply. Thank you very much!

Greetings!!!

Nothing wrong with self voting but this account has been abusing people for a long time. I flag him on the regular. Hence my hidden status.

You got a 0.62% upvote from @minnowvotes courtesy of @chanta!

haejin takes about 16K in steem out the door weekly with his 6-10 meaningless stock posts per day. No text - just one chart with a 10 year projection. He self votes and then his buddy comes in big a couple days before payout.
