RE: Neds pre mined SP is being used to promote Steem abuse!
First, good job outing plagiarism.
Second, I reckon your post reeks of the fury of the scorned, seeming to be motivated by @surpassinggoogle's refusal to obey you.
Perhaps you would have more impact were you to edit your tone a bit. I'm not saying you're wrong, but that the impression you convey is that of one entitled to obedience, and implies a threat to all who might dare to defy you, and your like-minded cohort, of public emasculation.
I would be likely to be strongly supportive of your underlying point were it not so framed.
While I'd prefer it if you didn't feel my comment here is an attack, I have to point out that if my criticism is taken as constructive, you will benefit your cause, and will prove my point if you consider it an attack.
I'll be interested in seeing which direction you view it from, and we'll go from there.
First of all, I would like to remind you that he is was among the top 50 witnesses. Not sure if you know what that even means. Also, another whale user has been supporting this plagiarist. I have largely didn't do much talking to him about voting of the plagiarist. Because he is using his own money to give votes.
But steemgigs aka surpassinggoogle is a top witness and therefore, his case is different. The money he is giving away comes from investors who have used their own money to buy the coins. And the posts that he upvoted were serious cases of plagiarism that could lead to blocking of the main site.
I have seen a few posts saying golos was blocked by Russia for copyright infrigment. I don't want that to happen with steemit.
I find it incredibly ironic that you would talk down to somebody like this when you yourself clearly don't know too much.
I am fairly sure he was in the top 19 or top 50 when I wrote my previous post. I saw his name in steemit witness vote page. Only top 50 witnesses stay there. His rank decreased after my expose.
The market is set my the investors. Their inflated money is what funds the rewards pool.
Did tamim mine crypto?
Yes, it will. Example, piratebay, kickass etc etc.
You mentioned this several times, sounded like you wanted to prove to yourself that your hatred post achieve something. Hatred posts are as worse as plagiarized posts.
whew??? The last time I check HE's rank went up after your post.
He was among the top 50. He is now down to 61.
mmmm are you sure that he went down after your attack? mmmmm I doubt it.
I see, you are happy that he is down. If that makes you happy you can celebrate and attack more!
remember bro, it's only a number bro. ONLY A NUMBER. It will not change anything for us, we will uplift him and love him more. He is number 1 for me.
We are going to have #steemgigs party! you are invited:) because everybody is welcome.
xoxo
HAHAHAHHA ...^_^ i love this comment @sunnylife
lol tapos na ang laban uwuian na:)
basahin mo yong iba dali:)
I appreciate your thoughtful and informative reply, but would humbly point out that I didn't disagree with the substance of your post, merely the tone. You actually didn't address that matter in your reply, although you indicated by the selected quote that you are aware of the specific particulars of my point.
Also, while I appreciate that many find witnesses somewhat opaque, I have some grasp of their purpose, and will point out that it is one of my primary concerns regarding Steemit, Steem, and SMTs. Witness votes are stake weighted, just as are all votes on Steemit, and the witnesses are the mechanism that controls the code that controls the blockchain.
This means that buying the mined stakes of the founders, and using it to control which witnesses run code, allows anyone with enough money to take over not only Steemit, but the Steem blockchain itself. The fact that those mined stakes are necessary to this hostile takeover/Sybil attack means that the founders will become millionaires when it happens.
If you think about it, SMTs are just as vulnerable as Steem, and the top witnesses, Stinc, and other substantial holders of stake are both aware of this, and are not acting to change it.
While copyright infringement isn't inconsequential, the media could buy the blockchain for less than the cost of lunch for the top 1% of them. I reckon this is more relevant to the felicity of Steemers than plagiarism.
While all that is what it is, my only substantive criticism of your OP, is your tone, not the points you make about @surpassinggoogle, plagiarism, or other matters. Perhaps you find my observation insipid, vapid, or otherwise irrelevant, and that's your choice.
All I sought is to reduce the appearance of virtue signaling, and promote rational criticism. I far prefer the latter.
Hi @valued-customer, I like the way you have handled the comment discussion so I was wondering what your thoughts are on a factcheck service on steemit: https://steemit.com/bisteemit/@plushzilla/fact-check-tag-post-for-steemit-proposal-to-promote-transparency-and-accuracy-of-content
sorry I missed your comment until now.
Thanks for your kind words, and I'll have a look ASAP.
