RE: An Argument for Long-Term Rational Self-Interest Versus Short-Term Irrational Value Extraction
Hey @smooth
I just wanted to pick up on your 3rd paragraph and mention @steemflagrewards.
These guys are doing a pretty good job (on top of Steemcleaners, Patrice, etc) whereby you flag obvious Spam/comment farming/plagiarism etc, tag them in your reply on the Post/Comment, and drop the link in their discord. Once they've reviewed the situation and approved the content/voting as abuse, they'll upvote your reporting comment.
This seems like a nice way (and fair play to whoever's SP this is) of 'reducing costs' for flagging to me. I wonder if it's something that some of @burnpost's SP could be pushed to?
Just to make clear, I'm not in any way tied to this account.
A recent example here: https://steemit.com/dmania/@abh12345/re-shruti11-besram-bap-zg1hbmlh-2i4jn-20180516t180213910z#@steemflagrewards/re-re-shruti11-besram-bap-zg1hbmlh-2i4jn-20180516t180213910z-20180516t191606
Cheers.
I took a quick look at @steemflagrewards and it does look like an interesting effort to help fight abuse. I wont be able to delegate @burnpost SP to it at this time because @burnpost has a charter not to engage in or delegate to accounts that engage in upvoting. The reason i did this is to be 100% certain that the SP isn't used to personally enrich anyone.
Ahh, that's fair enough. Thanks for the response.
