No, there is a backroom where you plot who gets downvoted, you are part of steemflagrewards right?

The chances that most those accounts on appics are legit and not socks is pretty good. I think the where you miss is the point where we get these people who gain so much power from cheating then it's near impossible to reign in the behavior later when they rule the roost. It takes an incredible amount of power coming together to gain back control. APPICS was a failing ap on another blockchain, Instagrammers weren't interested in joining them. Why would they as most people aren't interested in crypto sites. On that blockchain the highest level of participation by an ap saw six thousand people and that wasn't APPICS. (Knowing the blockchain and how it operates you could take half to three quarters of that number and attribute it to socks) The chances that any "live" accounts on APPICS is going to come here and participate on this site isn't likely....and why would the owner of APPICS want that?....as she is taking a cut of what they make?....why would she encourage a loss to herself? I've done enough digging to be convinced they are farming dead accounts off Instagram, using mannequins/dolls then using their own bots to upvote that content....these are the people you think will be good for this platform? Not to mention the total slap in the face it is to everyone else on here that such behavior as posting a picture with HI! or two, three words and getting rewarded would find themselves downvoted. There's no verification that any of these accounts are legit. I could run around with a camera and take pictures of people even totally unknown to them, create a fake account for them, then have bots upvote them.

It's this type of behavior as why no one wants to invest here, why people leave here. Taz posted an article about a guy/gal who was making a lot of money posting pictures of socks, that was his/her accounts name. He said the guy/gal was making to much money on such low grade effort but he/she gained incredible amount of steem and it was quite an effort to bring it under control. Why shouldn't they have been allowed to do such?...as don't you think once appics gains that kind of power they are going to do the exact same thing? Right now it's a nickle, dime, dollar, five....and the very fact some reach five should be alarming. Why isn't anyone doing anything about it? I don't know, maybe they know whose pushing this behind the scene's, maybe it's someone at steemit inc they don't want to confront, maybe it's someone with to much power to go up against...it has to be something along those lines as I have yet to see anyone say it's okay for someone to come on here with such a low grade effort that will not produce onboarding of any masses rake over the rewards pool for their own self gain on track to become a dolphin within six months for such a low grade effort.

I hang out with my grand kids when I want to have fun.
