RE: Steemit.com needs a rule that prohibits to encourage upvotes by any kind of rewards!

in #steemit • 8 years ago

That right there is exactly why Steemit was created. It gives the power to the people. The same people that made a make up tutorial blow up could be the same people that would make that blow up but the people will ultimately decide on it. Will it work for that poster, umm maybe but personally I doubt it but just think if I doubt at least a good majority will too so its the risk he will take. Can't knock him for trying.

    We actually can. There is a rule in TOS:

    "17.1. When accessing or using the Services, you agree that you will not commit any unlawful act, and that you are solely responsible for your conduct while using our Services. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you agree that you will not:"
    ...
    "17.1.2. Use our Services to pay for, support or otherwise engage in any illegal activities, including, but not limited to illegal gambling, fraud, money- laundering, or terrorist activities."

    Encouraging people to upvote for some reward which will be granted to the random picked user - isn't it gambling? :)
