Good to see you sticking to your principles, but I have seen people going for maximum reward from ocdb before. New Steam may mean revising expectations. I'm hoping it means higher average quality of posts. Earning should be based on effort and value. We're already setting people use their free downvotes on trending posts and I hope this continues. The trending page ought to be a showcase and not just of proof of greed.
I've seen plenty of accounts going for maximum upvotes on some real trash.
At least this upvote account seems to be taking some action to address it?
Well I glad you feel that way as this $123.21 post is worth more like ten bucks, fifteen if you want to stretch it. He went and bidded himself 63.02 percent on this post, this post is proof of greed if I ever saw proof of greed.
I can agree with that to some extent. The big accounts tend to help each other, but if they forget the 'small fry' they may find themselves ruling a ghost town. Trending is likely to be dominated by posts about Steem and that will not attract general users.
So long as they didn't "forget you" then you'll go along. That's hypocrisy at it's finest. So much for expecting you to flag this over valued post.
I've flagged plenty of others, but that's up to me to decide. I definitely won't be upvoting over-valued posts. My own rewards are not that important so feel free to downvote my posts.
