Hello there @pjau!

I did not think you would grace us with a contribution from your account. While informative, I find it nauseating to read about this type of abuse. What started out as helping hands to port newbies to the ecosystem are also tools for bad actors.

The worst part is, this is a small-time vote farm compared to what the @steemcleaners have dealt with in the past. Once they become big enough, they can become dolphins and beyond. Then, they establish themselves permanent seats amongst stakeholders.

Part of me believe that we need a system to loan RC. This way, people would have to earn and/or buy their voting power. This place needs less shady personas. If they want to vote for themselves, they better buy their own stake!

I want to thank you for all the time you have devoted into the anti-abuse initiatives. Many of them do not realize how much time you put into the ecosystem without being in the foreground.
