Serious Spammer stealing YOUR rewards and tokens. Time for some sporting downvotes!

@adem3455 / @dianna1 is the reason many projects fail on Steem. He writes 30 words, 10 times a day and self upvotes each post to the max. He also then makes a comment from his own alt account, @dianna1 which he replies to and self upvotes that too.

Please downvote him and let's stamp out this kind of behaviour before it takes hold and spoils the great experience for everyone.

This guy is already getting @macbot votes but they don't affect his Sports tokens.

I have received some upvotes from the dianna account. Don't be surprised to see a lot of this happening. It is our duty to keep our chain as clen as possible. Things look a bit not in order I guess we have to wait for some improvements. Regards mate!

So with our combined Stakes we need to all get-together and stop them taking the rewards. This scammy behaviour can't be allowed to continue. If you have any suggestions of who else does this, please let me know and I will flag them :-)

Thanks for informing the Sports community.

I just downvoted the latest and will keep watch on the upcoming spam posts to be downvoted also.

Thank you for taking time to research users! I will definitely be helping you curate rewards on the platform and hope many others will join us.

An anonymous donor has put together a JSON copy of all comments within the SPORTS ecosystem over the last 7 days that are still eligible for downvote. I've converted that file to a Google Sheet for easier reading. Please feel free to utilize this to help research those abusing the rewards and curate as needed.

@patrickulrich Can you please also define sports and if video sports are excluded?

e.g. this is one definition.....

Question about "Kids Games/Sports"? Activities in Amusement Parks

Some time, few people, do not understand kids games/sports? Activities in Amusement Parks, etc. Maybe they were never kids and they were born as Adult? And they start fighting with small kids in steemit?

Kids have probably more right to play and talk about sports than adults....

Sport
Sport includes all forms of competitive physical activity or games which, through casual or organised participation, aim to use, maintain or improve physical ability and skills while providing enjoyment to participants, and in some cases, entertainment for spectators. Hundreds of sports exist, from those between single contestants, through to those with hundreds of simultaneous participants, either in teams or competing as individuals. In certain sports such as racing, many contestants may compete, simultaneously or consecutively, with one winner; in others, the contest (a match) is between two sides, each attempting to exceed the other. Some sports allow a "tie" or "draw", in which there is no single winner; others provide tie-breaking methods to ensure one winner and one loser.

There are a few shockers already and have removed some users already from my autovote. There are a couple of obvious ones with Pele upvoting his own comments. Just looked at his comments and has self voted on two comments for a reward of 48 000 tokens. Unbelievable and no wonder it is going unnoticed as day 6. One is paying out in 6 hours.

I noticed this with Pele not just with his comments but posts. Of course he's free to do what he wants with his stake but one paragraph per post and 48k per post, 4 times a day, is that even fair game?

https://www.sportstalksocial.com/@pele23 - 200k in the past 24 hours for little more than a paragraph per post.

If posting like this is within the Sports Talk Social guidelines of fair writing then I am fine with it too, I just can't imagine it being that way.

As a new user I would like clarification on what sort of blog this is going to be. Are there no guidelines to what is acceptable and what isn't in terms of what you post and self upvote?

I posted three times yesterday but with each post I made a concerted effort to write sometime meaningful under the tennis category, I am a big tennis fan.

That is exactly how it is supposed to be. I don't see any effort in his posts and I am sure the mods are going to get involved.

Whoops, missed this one. Nice and subtle! :D :D

We do need to make the community aware of such actions and hope there are enough of us willing to take action.

@ Dianna1 is my friend. He brought me to this platform. I'm just trying to figure this out. I've just learned that when I vote on other content, I get a 50% curator award. From now on I will be more careful. I apologize to everyone.

I've come to realize that. but I got it late. Of course we're sorry for him.
But there will be no such situation. Because I've learned the rules and I'm not going to spam any more.
adem3455 has been my friend for 6 years. Of course we will help each other on this platform. This is not a bad thing. We just wrote some short comments when commenting on posts. But we understand your mistake and we won't spam anymore.
