RE: Self-voting user list since HF19 - PART 2 (comments)

in #statistics7 years ago (edited)

Bringing this attention that @calamus056 did might be working. I picked one user at random out of the list:

https://steemit.com/@evanrvoss/comments

It appears he was giving himself $1.00 an upvote regularily... and now recently he's been tapering it off.. many of his comments now show 0 upvotes. You have to keep scrolling down his comment list and you will see where he was voting himself up a lot... often for very simple comments.

So if this one user is doing it less, perhaps other users are starting to do it less.

Either way @calamus056 keep these lists coming. :)

** I've resteemed this post.

Sort:  

It's possible he is waiting 5-6 days to upvote his own comments so he can better avoid detection because of how it is viewed nowadays.

To catch a scumbag, you must think like a scumbag!

Agreed. We need a hypothetical mathematical model that demonstrates the damage done over time to Steem through self-voting at different degrees:

  1. Percentage of users doing it 0-100%.
  2. Frequency of ave user doing it 0-100%
  3. Measured impacts on Steem economy in terms of growth of:
    A. Steem users,
    B. STEEM value
    C. Steem morale
    D. Any other metric
    We need to make our case.
