RE: My Self-Experiment: Arbitrary Power Used By Arbitrary People
If you knew me, you would know how much I hate vote selling. If I had the stake to eliminate it, I would do it in a second. Marky at least actively works against the problem.
If all else fails and bid bot owners continue to destroy their own platform by supporting narcissistic abusers, it is possible to fork the code but may be wise to wait for MIRA before crossing that bridge. It has to be done smart with mechanisms to prevent history from repeating itself.
As far as bot owners go, Marky has by far been the most helpful to the antiabuse cause thus I am willing to help him contain abuse on the platform.
P.S. I am also interested in how the communities feature can be leveraged to combat the problem so I am not all in on forking just yet. It is an option.
He is a main source of abuse here.
He downvotes for disagreement.
He flags drugwars posts, except his own.
He decries bidbot abuse and in the same breath upvotes himself unabashedly with his own bots...
I suppose this IS "protecting and serving" by today's standards.
Nobody cares what you hate or love , the bottom line is you are part of organized criminal group that takes STEEM away from users and reward themselves in the process .
Marky is just cunning criminal that steals STEEM left and right
