If someone goes and reports a project or account to hivewatcher it doesn't give people the right to go on a downvote spree and threaten to downvote someone forever, especially when they don't have a history of starting drama or wanting bad things for hive, on the contrary. Furthermore, the curation of helios.voter is really questionable, so many accounts with close to no comments posting questionable content if it's original or just copy-pasted/spun, even if it was original if there is no consumption since there are no followers/readers and the authors aren't making an effort it doesn't justify the rewards. Not even going to get into the basis of what the token does and what you can do with it, just a bad idea in general for proof of brain.
I get what you're saying. We also check users & content, I thought everyone was legit. I haven't concentrated on users' comments because until now I didn't see that link. I write original posts and I never comment anymore, so maybe that's why I didn't get that association. It's all about curation so we are also very careful where our votes are heading. We stopped spamming posts with our automated comments, as I recall it was one of your posts about not being able to find the real comments at the end of a post that gave us that idea, and that's the reason for our automated post per day, besides showing token statistics.
It was a good idea, however, that user Daniel kept downvoting our automated posts and later started complaining about them.
You also have automated posts, if someone upvotes those posts it's not your problem right?
We didn't initiate that drama, we watched and waited for a long time before flagging back a little. We're not going to flag him forever, I'm gonna leave Daniel alone, that comment just came out of a moment of comment rage.
We won't initiate any more drama as well. But when someone keeps trying to make drama from our patience that's unfair.
If you have any proof of any of our users spinning up old posts or someone else's work, please report it and we will blacklist them immediately. Normally we rely on the spaminator list to automatically block out bad users, not sure why these users you mention that don't comment have slipped through the cracks when Hivewatchers gets 350 a day to do this.
Thanks for the input, we are working on screening the posts we curate much more carefully.
Take a look at the last few comments I've left, it's hard to understand how posts and users like those constantly receive 100% votes from you.
