I'm hoping I don't see an influx of spammers and shit posters attempting to chase the money.
The ones who still chase it are either old spammers/shit posters with new accounts or newbies who were onboarded by the said old spammers.
They usually prey on the poor and naive. Although, they are manageable.
The lame ones now are those with power who prefer to vote on anything and everything blindly. Coincidentally, they tend to vote into those scamming rings often. Makes you wonder really.

Chasing quality content producers away with irresponsible downvotes is one of the most technologically advanced methods of shooting yourself in the foot in this brave new world.
I could change the word downvotes to upvotes. Irresponsible upvotes are just as bad. Look how much damage the paid vote fiasco caused. Thousands upon thousands of people were driven away so a handful of people could be fake trenders multiple times per day. I always said those paid votes were the exact same as downvotes.
