๐จ This Was For Absolutely No Reason !!! Edit : apparently "nog" Is = @noganoo !! Just found out in steemitabuse , he's pissed for being flagged I guessed to below zero , (not by me!! ) So he now has this bot army attacking steemians !! !! So this is a warning to everyone on Steemit !! You may be next !! All my 15 posts from the past 7 days have been down voted into the hundreds !!! One over negative thousand !!!! I notified them at steemitabuse in steem chat , as this has not happened before to me by a bot army of all things !! And I was advised by @fubar-bdhr that there's not much anyone can do about all the flagging by ( nogs Bot Army ) Never heard of this army but apparently steemitabuse knows all about "nog " they don't post anything only flag !! At least their reputations are between 0 and 25 so it has little effect im hoping on my reputation , but all my posts did drop by at least one or two dollars , its really not much but it certainly is an annoyance and a distraction right now , especially as im trying to spread more positivity around steemit with my Power Of Positivity / Pop Contest ! @popcontest ! Which my main goal is to help make steemit a positive and happy place for all steemians , by having people enter positive posts to win !! Now the prize that is 100% from all steem dollars + 100% from all donations is a bit lower now ! Heres the link if your interested in entering or donating to this great steemit cause ! :

SAY WTF !?!?!? IS GOING ON !?!?
THIS HAS NO EFFECT ON MY POSITIVE STEEMIT ATTITUDE !!!
๐จ Im not going to let this get me down at all ! I will Stay positive no matter what my fellow steemians And I want you to do the same if " nogs bot army " does the same to you ! So please disregard all the flags on my page !! I have never flagged anyone and im totally against flagging as well , im probably one of the most positive people on steemit !! And I really hope the DEVS will sometime soon find a way to stop this kind of negative behavior from bots on steemit , which is really bad for the platform and can be very disheartening to some !! ๐จ
๐จ๐ STAY STRONG AND POSITIVE / NEVER STOP STEEMING ON !! ๐๐จ
๐จ๐ THIS IS MY NEW COVER IMAGE ! ๐๐จ
๐จThanks @elyaque & @merej99 for my badges / @son-of-satire for my banner !๐จ
Seems like Nog liks to cause a ruckus around here. Here has threatened to threaten Steemit events and Steemians physically and now it seems his latest revenge tactic is this. All I can suggest is to power up and keep doing it..... the more powered up you are the less he can affect you with his bots.
Him and @berniesanders are long best friends, right bernie?
@karenmckersie Actually bernie might be able to help, you might want to mention this to him, even though he has been punished for being the over zealous Steemit hound dog.
Thanks so much for your kind reply ! Haha yes he and @berniesanders go way back I remembered as soon as I found out that nog was = noganoo !! This is just so ridiculous I don't get it !! I have never once done anything to him , so I don't understand he's crazy for sure !!LOL! I guess some people just never grow up , and believe revenge to innocent people is OK ! Now im posts are not getting as much up votes when people go to my home page and see all those flags . Of all the people on here like spammers that deserve these flags , he gets his bot army to attack the innocent !go figure ... Oh well I just hope his army stays away from now on , good night my friend ! โ๐โ๐๐
To me - this is the wrong answer. Telling the random victim to be strong does not help the next victim or the next or the next. I'm really distressed about this one as I try to recruit my content creating friends.
He has a -7 reputation and about 200 Steempower so I wouldn't worry too much! It is annoying though!
Yes for sure haha !! I cant believe this guy has a bot army set up with hundreds of bots !! @berniesanders has a post on his page of all of them listed ! LOL! The extent some people go to is mind boggling and very annoying !! ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
I don't believe there's nothing can be done. The account can be suspended or deleted.
There seems to be ever increasing problems with Steemit and I suspect it is this "Hands Off" approach by the devs. I'm fairly confident this will be addressed soon especially if they want Steemit to survive.
Thanks for your support ! You are so right , and they better move fast , this is getting to be. A problem and it will get worse before it gets better ! Im surprised going to steemitabuse I really got no answers ! There must be some how to report this even though it sounds like they know about it all ready , to someone else maybe !? Thanks again!๐
From what I can see, Steemit is the Wild West. There is so many (IMV) bad things going on that it would make me pull my hair out if I had any. lol
I suspect he can't help but you could approach @sherlockholmes although he seems to concentrate on people who create multiple accounts for financial gain. Sadly the only reward for his hard work is the kudos for 'outing' these parasites as again, nobody higher up the food-chain seems willing to do anything about it.
There's no monetary reward for downvoting you, or anyone else for that matter so I can only think that this bot was created for one of two reasons.
A: Someone who feels aggrieved and sees it as 'Pay Back'.
B: Simply a vindictive person who gets some sort of warped pleasure out of it.
I have no idea how, but you need to get this sorted as clearly you're in this bots crosshairs if it continues. :-(
This army of bots must be doing this many others as they all ready know about about the "nog" bot army in steemit abuse ! I would go with "A" . Im not going to dwell on this right now , I like to keep a positive attitude if I can , even though its difficult sometimes ! Especially while im running my positive post contest ! LOL ! Im just hoping it doesn't come back and flag some more ! โ๐๐
Fingers crossed.
just found out in steemitabuse that "nog" = @noganoo !!! Its his bot army and he's pissed I guess at steemit is what it looks like to me . Heading to bed , good night , its 5 am ! LOL! I really am addicted to steemit ! Haha !๐๐๐ด๐ด๐ด
lol. catch you on the flip side.
Unfortunately, you are not the first one to whom it happens. About a month ago it happened to several people at once.
Take a look!
But don't be discouraged! You are a good Steemian, and you know what are you doing and why. Besides, you are always kind and supportive and I'm sure many would be glad to help you to annul those flags. ๐
Yes this guy is really a piece of work !! ๐๐๐Other then it being annoying , the flags cause no damage anyways , noganoo and his bot army have no power at all !! He and @berniesanders Go way back ! Haha ! Thanks for your support !!๐๐๐๐๐๐
who flagged you!!!
send them to me,!!!
Bwahahha ! Thanks !! I love it!!good night !๐๐ฑ๐๐ฑ๐
sleep well
This makes me feel actually sick to read your post.
Upvoted, put in steemit chat, tweeting every two hours so I hope more people will see this post.
I'm so sorry! This could not happen to a more WRONG PERSON. I can give these bots a list of candidates to hit but I still hate the thought of this.
The idea "that there's not much anyone can do about all the flagging by ( nogs Bot Army )" seems wrong. Steemit has a lot of smart people like cheetah. Someone can help in some way.
Fuming now and worried.
You are so right and thank you very much for your kind reply and support !! This bot army never posts anything so you cant even flag them back ! I have no idea either just how big this army is , but they managed to flag me hundreds of times , I mean they have no power so the effect was minimal ! , but can you imagine what will hapen or can happen if they do get a lot of money or if someone with alot of money and power decides to do this and create their own bot army !! It would kill steemit ! They could flag everyone to zero ! Not to mention my reputation . I even mentioned in steemitabuse wondering why the DEVS of Steemit are doing nothing about this behavior !? I have not heard back yet as though its not a big deal until it happens to them I guess ! Thanks again , YOUR AWESOME !! Steem on my friend !!!๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
I think you should change one of your tags to #steemdev so people who search that can find your post.
good idea thanks!!will do !๐๐๐๐
Totally agree with my friend @fitinfun. Did you know we recently had a steemit meetup in Bangkok and I'll meet up with her again as I pass through Bangkok again in a couple weeks. So good to you people I know communicating on here. What a cool platform. What a shame that these bots attacked! Attack of the bots! Sounds like a cheesy Japanese movie. Couldn't happen to a nicer person. And on that note, thank you for resteeming Aruba article. You've had my back since day one, and you still do. That means a lot. I'm now less than 10 followers away from hitting 300. So I'm slowly but surely gaining steem! Thanks again! -Dan :)
Thanks for your awesome comment ! Its good to know you as well , love your travel posts ! I didn't know about the steem meet up in Babkok with @fitinfun
, cool ! And yes haha it does sound pretty funny like " The bot attacks from mars "!! LOL! Thanks for the support ! And congrats on gaining the 300 followers , way to go ! Cheers to hundreds more to come !! ๐โ๐๐โ๐๐
Yes indeed! Steemit meet ups are fun. Be careful of the Mars Bot Attacks! Yikes!
Haha will do !!๐๐๐๐๐
Damn. crap happens again.
Thanks @ace108 , I agree ! That dam noganoo and Now his bot army !! Attacking the innocent ! Its really crazy behavior my friend! Falling asleep , good night , and good luck !โ๐โโ๐

Thanks !!๐๐๐
OMG!
WHAT?!?!?! This is the first I have heard of this though I well know there are other problems plaguing this amazing platform. I hope that this post helps bring attention and resolution to this very real problem!
You have my support and I am sure together we will get through this with our POSITIVITY!
SteemON!
Yes for sure my friend thanks for the ongoing support !! I prefer to be and stay positive no matter what !! Check out the post I got from 20 days ago on @berniesanders home page ! It noganoos list of the huge bot army he has made !! Im sure there's like a thousand on there ! And even though he and his army have been flagged down to nothing and they cant really do any harm , it still is very disruptive and annoying to have all these flags on my site while im trying to promote my contest and Positivity here on steemit !! You will be amazed at this list !! Good night !!๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ด๐ด๐ด๐๐๐

I wish something can be done about this... But why does he choose you to downvote? was it by random?
anyway, Upvoted and resteemed... maybe some of my followers can do a thing.
thanks for your kind reply and support !! Yes I think his bot army is just random !! So it can hit anyone at any time !! Hence the warning , at least he and they have no power so minimal damage is caused so I wanted people to know this before they get to upset if it happens to them !! Stay positive and happy , and keep steeming on my friend !! Your up vote anf d resteemed is greatly appreciated !! Thanks!๐๐๐๐๐๐
yeah, let's all stay positive... there's already so much negativity on the internet
Soo true ! And on the news !! Keep calm and steem on !!! ๐๐๐๐๐๐
