RE: Buying upvotes is it good for the steem it community ?
It looks like one of the more powerful accounts is going to start downvoting/flagging the upvote bot accounts: https://steemit.com/steem/@grumpycat/warning-to-vote-buyer-sellers-introducing-grumpycompliance-mandatory-in-14-days-no-post-promotion-allowed-after-3-5-days
Regardless of how you feel about it from a community standpoint, just be aware that there's a good chance that people will be downvoting these posts into oblivion in a couple days, so you might not get what you pay for (or anything at all) even if you do pay for votes.
Im curious to see how that plays out but grumpy cat is only put a 3 day limit on bots not the complete removal
There has been no indication from the services whether they intend to comply with the 3-day limit, so you would want to get that cleared up first.
Buying and selling votes is not even worth talking about in my opinion unless you've been here forever, because someone will just come along and downvote your post into oblivion, like they did with my above comment.
Too bad users like @dynamicgreentk are more interested in effectively censoring new users who discuss it rather than engaging them in a discussion.Edit: thanks to @dynamicgreentk for removing the downvote.
Here's another example of retaliation if you even discuss voting: https://steemit.com/steemit/@contentjunkie/epic-reward-pool-rapist-grumpycat-unveils-fascist-roadmap
seems pretty sad that people just downvote to be assholes
