I have seen so many posts with only one photo and 2 sentences that are on Trending Page and these posts are not Downvoted, only because these Users obediently listen to those who have Steem power. In most of the Cases those posts have nothing in common with Excellent Content.

This is starting to irritate me; I know they value to fight for our blockchain's function right now, but I don't want to see this kind of spam post on Trending making $50 by popular witnesses. They should decline payout if it's only for visibility. I don't like to see this kind of double standard. There are also short comments voted to $80 on recent drama posts, but this behavior is accepted because it's done by the in-group whale cartel.
