https://steemit.com/@mmmmkkkk311 has 175k SP and he is downvoting SBI "vote buyers" because he thinks that it is wrong - a ponzi scheme. If someone has a lot of SBI shares, perhaps they can liquidate it and get STEEM back? If that works and is preferred, we can consider switching out/off of SBI?
"#sbi-skip" is to not get sbi upvotes and thus not getting downvotes as well - which is more?

The latest posts from VOTE BUYING IS WRONG. Follow me at @mmmmkkkk311. Vote trading circles are worse than bidbots, downvoting posts upvoted by SBI farm, upvotebuilders etc ...

for posts that might get more upvotes from "other than SBI" - #sbi-skip might be good to use. Perhaps most members can use this tag - #sbi-skip - for most of their posts until they can get a big enough upvote from sbi?

We are aware of the new 'tax' on SBI votes. You're free to use #sbi-skip to wait it out or accumulate pending votes until his 'tax' is small relative to your vote received.
Saving your SBI votes until your estimated next vote is higher than sbi2 can deliver is still an effective strategy to minimize the % impact that he has on your rewards.

We are unable to control any user's actions, so we are powerless to make him stop. It looks like he may be willing to discuss, but his ultimatum is effectively a complete ceasing of the program, so I don't expect it to get very far. There has been a ton of support for SBI (which we really appreciate) and very little support for the downvoter. Please keep spreading positivity and even if he doesn't stop we can outgrow his downvotes until they become nothing but a nuisance.
