RE: Introducing Copypastewaster: an account dedicated to reporting rewards pool rapists
Thank you for your efforts.
I tire of the zero-effort copy and paste article posters myself. I even ran across an account "zer0hedge" that is blatantly posting articles from the zerohedge.com website in their entirety, with zero added commentary.
Its things like these that deprive those that are actually contributing to the platform from receiving their just rewards.
Keep up the fight, it keeps the platform functioning!
^^ inspiration for this account and it's probably going to get nuked very shortly.
I am not sure that zer0hedge is a problem. He's a well-established guy on the interwebs, and he copy-pastes his blog here. That goes against Steem ideals, but at least it is within his rights to do so.
The bigger problem is the zillions who don't write or lift a finger and re-post articles that they didn't write. Or the images they find.
I'd love to hear your logic on this. I, for one, would likely never see his blogs elsewhere, but I do see them trend on Steem and read them from time to time. I personally think it seems like a good way to cross-over from the outside world to Steem. I'm not prepared to tell him to go shuck corn because he likes blogging outside of Steem still.
That guy is not ZeroHedge/Tyler Durden ... it's just some guy copy pasting from zerohedge
I did not know that! Interesting.
