RE: New Sneaky Ninja Abuse Policy - MUST READ FOR ALL USERS!!
Hey ninja! i really appreciate that you aren't doing what a lot of bots are doing with NSFW [which is just not allowing use for anything with a NSFW tag, period] I am super appreciative that you're supporting original NSFW content creators with this move rather than putting us all on a blacklist and lumping myself and fellow original NSFW content creators in the same pile as the spam accounts that rape and hog NSFW tag as it stands now. I have a lot of faith that this move will help clean up NSFW [especially if other bots follow suit and hire your team and manually check NSFW posts] since one of our main issues in NSFW is the rampant abuse of bid bots to promote posts of literal copy paste stolen porno spam [ugh]
again, thank you!
You are very welcome!
Some people forget that even if they do not appreciate NSFW it can also be a persons art/profession.
It is this reason that I make sure to allow anyone that is a model or nude photographer to use my service to promote their work.
Maybe this can help clean up the mess in nsfw tag and allow real content creators to be seen.
Ps. you're damn sexy, too bad I'm not closer ;)
Oh yea, I noticed on your page that you use steepshot sometimes. I thought I should tell you that I am about to start not allowing posts from steepshot to use ninja. The vast majority of them fit into the "tweet type post" category and don't add anything I want my bot to vote on to the platform.
Just giving you the heads up.
Thanks for the support :)
Thanks for letting me know..I will say it makes me a bit sad that you're doing that to steepshot since you actually can post quite a few words with a steepshot post as opposed to a zappl post that forces you to microblog..altho since steepshot is mimicking instagram it generally features boss photography.
I suppose it really comes down to what one considers worthy vs unworthy content/platform, and steemit is experiencing SO MUCH FUCKIN SPAM lately!
And yes, as to cleaning up NSFW I agree this could vastly help especially if other bid bots followed suit. I actually shared this post with the newly founded NSFW content creator community on discord, as we had been brainstorming how to cleanup NSFW and most of the ideas were just "Flag em all" which, in my mind. is a bit excessive. So! Very glad that this could be a better option since most of the issue isn't so much that people are posting stolen porn..it's that they are then buying said posts mad upvotes so that a post that would normally make maybe a few bucks since it's stolen and no one should be upvoting that that much..ends up blocking users who are creating good original NSFW content but can't afford to buy enough votes to compete in any way.
This new manual system you're trying out could def take care of a lot of the spam that is dominating many categories as of late and mitigate the negative effects of upvote bots. Hooray!
Also, thanks so much for supporting NSFW original content creators! We tend to get lumped in with spam accounts lately which suuucccckkkkkkkks so thanks!
I've actually pulled votes from a couple that were stolen porn once it was brought to my attention.
The thing with steepshots is just that, even though you can make a good post with it, most people just do the single pic with no supporting information and little wording. So it ends up being like a simple tweet. Once the manual thing is going really well I may opt to bring it and dlive back. Not till I know I can curate them all though.
I would talk with some of the creators about adding more relevant supportive info to their posts. This is the one thing I see that they could still get black/watchlisted for.
