RE: Minnowbooster News: Introducing 5 Day Upvote Submission Limit
Is this change made in response to @grumpycat's actions against some vote sellers bots?

This change was made after I complained on the steemitabuse chat channel - it was very easy to find about $1000 @minnowbooster abuse per day upvoted shortly before payout, and often it was too late to retract the votes.
Congrats forgiving help cleaning this place, it is really some good thing for the community what you have done. Abusing voting bots to make a sort of ROI is simply wrong, because this way some users take money from the reward pool, which could be used to pay good posts which bring value to the platform.
We were given a couple of smart thoughts to battle manhandle by group individuals like f.e. @bloom, so we have more things arranged. All recommendations and additionally reports of manhandle are welcome, so come visit us up in disunity

tl;dr; no
We wanted to make that change already before grumpycat did their compliance.
Cool! The changes are great and I found it kind of you when you delayed the time of upvotes that a post can receive in order to let people curate.
yes exactly
