SFR Activity Report
Python Scripting Status: Degraded. 
After the recent Steem API endpoint changes, it seems that the Steem Piston library has ceased to function. It uses websockets to interface rather than http/jsonrpc which is the likely cause. Here is one of the errors I receive.
In the library, there is a file named "steemnoderpc.py". It's the Python Script used for websocket communication. I will be making a reasonable attempt to replace this with a http/jsonrpc client script but, worse come to worse, I'll just modify the rewards script which is only a minor setback. In case you were wondering, that is why we do not have data today.
class SteemNodeRPC(GrapheneWebsocketRPC):
""" This class allows to call API methods synchronously, without
callbacks. It logs in and registers to the APIs:
* database
* history
:param str urls: Either a single Websocket URL, or a list of URLs

Thanks again for jumping in on this, I really appreciate the efforts to get organized and incentivized about managing platform abuse.
Not a problem. Glad to help!
Would love if you dropped by the Discord sometime. There is a War Room Channel to discuss upcoming strategies and trending activity. Think I've got my eye on something big but not sure yet.
Thanks so much . you have enlighten many of us. bravo!!
I'm more concerned with trying to understand how taking advantage of the reward pool is different for a self upvoter. I'm still under the impression that the more everyone participates the more we earn Steem.
Why isn't self voting a disqualification for jurors?
By the way, Blockedtrades, and one of your jurors is already a self up voter.
Dear @trump3t, help us please.
I don't think the two are necessarily the same and would be glad to discuss on Discord. We haven't officially established a juror process but that is certainly on the to do list to include qualifications.
I think one criteria is the juror must demonstrate the capacity to use flags appropriately. This will help develop trust and confidence in the community.
