RE: SteemWorld Update / New Tool Available / Abuse Finder
I like your idea.
In my opinion, in addition there has also to be done anything against personal 'flag wars', otherwise you won't be able to convince people who fear these kinds of flags. In the past many users have left STEEM because they were harassed by certain whales. You already know my idea of implementing a committee.
If your "independent entity" could solve that problem, too, I would be even happier. :)
Definitely, a committee is really necessary. What I like about having an Independent entity to fight abuse is that it will operate and act as a [Nuclear Deterrent Mechanism].
People with power will be more inclined to move on and avoid abusing their power.
What if the entity starts abusing its power? It will be pointless, the account Will have a lot of limitations, and the community will have the final decision on whether the account should be terminated or not.
Sure, why not ... however, there could also be guidelines / rules / limitations for a 'committee account'.
I wish it would be possible to DELEGATE downvoting resource credits.
Let's say that I would be willing to downvote some abusers, but I would be worried to get hurt. I could delegate my downvoting power to someone larger (like yourself) knowing that you will take that risk on your shoulders.
Cheers
I remember that several delegators got hit before just because they delegated SP to curation projects that fought abuse.
I was thinking about doing such a thing with
ecosynthesizer. To use the SP of users to fight abuse, along with providing a passive income to our delegators, and curation.It is a risk that I may take since the current situation is truly alarming. We hope to receive more support for our project [Steem Sentinel], but in the meantime, we must do what we can with what we have right now.
Sorry for such a late reply. I only had a chance to read your comment a moment ago
Thx for your comment. I love to see how responsive you are :))
