It's a case of who you know not what you write.

I get how #newsteem are trying to cut down on reward pool rape, and they've managed to almost remove "upvote bots". But who are they to decide a posts value???

Hypothetically - if I had 200k SP and liked a post if yours, why do they then get to decide its over valued and downvote it?? Especially as the downvote pool is free to use now.

Basically what it boils down to is: "as long as they like you/your blogs they can be valued at what ever they want. Don't like you, then you're getting nothing"
