RE: @utopian-io: Contribution/Score/Moderator/Vote Analysis - 27th April -3rd May 2018
One of these days I may have time to look in on what all utopian-io does, I know they are mostly the developer side of steemit, and support projects that can be of help to steemit, or help to steemit users. But being a non programer, right now it would take a lot of reading to catch up on them.
It seems like they (developers) are not immune to trying to take advantage of the system in at least the bug hunting area, but the increase in that category of activity could have been affected by the issue's utopian had the previous week. So I will continue to think they are not trying to game the system to much.
Thanks for your interest in Utopian. In an attempt to help shortening your research time, I suggest looking into https://join.utopian.io/ and see what Utopian is about. In a gist, Utopian is a way to "Earn rewards by contributing to your favorite Open Source projects!" So it's not just about Steem(it), but it's about a way of giving back to the open-source community.
Actually, that's one of the misconceptions when contributing to open-source. Although most of open-source is about codes and programming, it's not really a requirement for you to contribute to open-source. If @abh12345 doesn't mind, I'd share a link to a post here of how you can get started.
Contributors in the bug-hunting category are not all developers. Maybe some of them are, but I think most of them are just regular users looking for bugs to open-source projects. This is the reason that moderators and CMs are there to help detect abuses and take appropriate action. I wish I can say that it's an easy job, but it's not.
