SUGGESTION TO STEEMIT PROGRAMMERS/DEVELOPERS TO DISALLOW SPAMMY COMMENT ON COMMENT PORTAL
One of the most trending issues is that of spammy comments on users post.
Most times, it is so painful that a user has to work hard hard and put up a post, and gets spammy comments.
I've done a thorough search on steemit and the trending spammy comments are.
¶ NICE POST PLEASE UPVOTE ME DEAR.
¶ BEAUTIFUL PICTURE,PLEASE UPVOTE ME.
¶ I HAVE UPVOTED YOU PLEASE VISIT MY BLOG AND UPVOTE ME.
This of course are the trending spammy comments on steemit.
MY SUGGESTION.
My suggestion would be that the steemit developers should enhance the comment portal of posts to detect and disallow spammy comments, such as the ones stated above.
HOW TO MAKE THIS HAPPEN.
Spammy comments should be collected on steemit by the developers, and programmers can programme the comment portal to reject any of the spammy comments it has been programmed against.

ADVANTAGES
The menace and pain which spammy comments causes will stop, and steemit will have a spam free platform.
It will render copy and paste comments ineligible for posting.
Flaging will decrease.
DISADVANTAGES
Some random and free phrase like PLEASE UPVOTE will not be used together again, as this will be considered vote begging.
Users will be forced to type in an explanatory to express themselves.
CONCLUSION
This initiative may seem difficult at first expecially for the upvote beggers however change is inevitable, and users will be able to adjust to this, overtime and gradually, spammy comments will be wiped out from steemit.

I don't understand. Your suggestion is to block spammy comments from reaching the block chain through filters on submission, but on the suggestion post you upvoted a spam comment:
So do you only consider it to be a spam comment when it asks for an upvote?
Honestly i didnt even see this the comments here were many, so i didnt see it, my apologies, i will do and make ammend
Thanks for making it right. I think that to reward spam comment is to encourage spam comment.
Yes always im supporting the good cause im glad you support
Very valid point. I had just noticed that too.
Let them beg... eventually they'll figure out that thought provoking and post related comments get upvoted and becomes profitable... spam just makes you look uneducated and selfish... neither of which will get you far on Steemit...
Lol i still feel they will continue, they keep growing here, and they are pissing people off, thank you for contributing though.
Always willing to put my 2 cents in 😀
Lol and i gave you my one cent
Good idea... I'm getting sick of wasting VP flagging them!
Yes and i think flagging too is being abused by some as well
