RE: Why I am "mercilessly" flagging spam on Steemit (mindless "altruism" won't help anyone)
I've been flagging them also. Seems like a real waste of voting power at a time when it's needed in so many growing areas, but we have a responsibility to keep the site form getting strangled by those junk comments.
Perhaps the members from poor, third world countries have no idea what spam is and are only trying to earn a little extra money for basic necessities. I just wrote a blog about the extreme poverty in these countries and how everyone should be thankful for what they have.
