RE: You're Invited to our First Official Flag Party!
Write legitimate comments on posts. While you weren't spamming other people you were creating block chain bloat with your spam. While this goes to scalability - think about what would happen if thousands of users do what you did. Or even on a bigger scale. 1000 users & a 100 comments per? 100,000 spam comments a day that serve no purpose but self voting and increase the size of the chain.
Steemit isn't a place to sit here and self up-vote. It is about being social. Rewarding content you like and being rewarded by others. Don't create multiple accounts either for up-voting in collusion.
You'll find in the long run this never works. You are looked upon as scammers and sometimes mistaken for bots since it is fairly easy to program bots to do simple comment posting.
Try engaging the community. Go up-vote posts you like and start a conversation with a comment. Right now all it looks like is your spamming images and porn with another account in addition to spam comments.

I didn't know that spamming causes problems to the blockchain. And if it is true this is a big problems in therms of scalability. From what you are saying I understand that idiots like Jerry Banfield and Dollarvigilante are meant to make millions of $ while others aren't allowed to post... The purpose of this website is to make revenue. This is what Dan used to advertise this community.
I'm writing this with my personal account since my views may not be shared by all of those who make up @spaminator.
I really don't think scalability will be an issue long term. In the short term it is better to discourage this before we get hundreds of thousands of users doing it. Granted these are witness issues but I see trying to prevent future problems that may never appear as looking after my own investment.
I'm no happier personally about some of the way Dan and others have attracted users like Jerry & Dollarvigilante. Those are things that I cannot do anything about being a minnow myself at the moment.
What I can do is discourage abuse and promote and support groups like @minnowsupport.
From what you are saying im not even allowed to post 😂 This is ridiculous. No one would use this website anymore with this mentality. I guess indonesians who spam daily 'amazing' are allowed to post but im not.
It seems that your idiot idea makes people think it's cool to downvote and now ive got downvotes on legit comments. If you have this avenger blood why dont you downvote yourself spammers. Why do you put others to downvote?
And the fact that people like you have this 'avenging' mentality makes things even worse.
What stops me now to make a new account. Rent some steem power and kill all the accounts that downvoted me? What stops me to make spam on other accounts and recover my losses? Do you think the big guys that have tons of sp will upvote those who will have 0 reputation? Everyone is for themselves here and no one cares. There are people who seek help, who try to raise funds for their surgeries but all you do is to upvote big whales and make them even richer.
There are literally homeless people on this community and no one gives a shit about them. All the $ and fame goes to the trending page. This community is nowhere near to be different from other cancerous social medias.
I will be different. I will help people in need without bragging and earning more money for my heroic acts like you do. There is no need to brag if you do something good.
