One of my biggest problems is when an account posts the same comment "Followed and Upvoted", on countless posts, but when you look at each of the posts, you don't see the upvote, and you don't see the follow.
These are the users who I want to seriously punish. Because I'm finding that so many new users are falling for this "trick" and upvoting the Spam comment, and actually following this Spammer!
We need to band together and be more aware of those who are commenting and voting on our posts. I know that it's exciting to see a comment, and someone praising your content. But.. BE SURE THAT IT'S TRUTHFUL!
Advocating "Flags" is one thing, but I think the most important thing we need to advocate is Self-Awareness of your own content and those who are visiting your content.
If everyone managed their own blog/comments as intently as they focused on earning rewards, Steemit would be a much more Original and Spam-Free Place!
Oh man. Yep. Those types definitely are asked to be flagged into oblivion. No rewards for outright lying.
