Let me know about this flagtrail initiative - one can flag a lot here as of various reasons - good reason but mainly the type of people get flagged that only harm the reward pool by a very low percentage while the real rapers sit on seats no one aims to touch with flags as of various reasons: Fear, Relations and others.

It’s always the same. The worst “abusers” are never downvoted because everyone is scared of being downvoted themselves. So they go after the < 50 SP accounts that are getting the penny upvotes, downvote them to zero, then upvote themselves $0.50 for doing such an awesome job of “protecting the community from abuse!”
It’s the same kind of reward scheming that the “abusers” engage in, but the “abuse fighters” just slap the slogan ”FOR THE GOOD OF STEEM!!!” on their “initiative.”
I’m sure you’ve seen this repeated many times since 2016.
Bullshit. We have flags against orca and whale alts. You don't have to take my word for it. It's on the blockchain, my dude.
We are assuming risk and chingos of flags. I'm telling you the evidence is there. It's not hidden. Do us all a favor and query all incoming flags on @steemflagrewards mentions. I can do it for you if you don't know how. Thanks
Have the same impression - not all are abusing it but some for sure do since 2016 - no idea why you got flagged for this.
I usually appreciate all his comments as he is one of the few realistic people here that calls out issues
Calling out issue is one thing. Mixing in fake news for the sake of a point is something I detest.
And most of the times, lack of resources.
It's not as easy to deter someone with whale level SP. This is demonstrated again with the recent thousands of comment spam that the frontends had to make invisible.
It's a dedicate balance to hit what you can actually knock down. Otherwise, several things can happen.
Abuser carries on, you didn't make a dent to profit, but focusing on the big one causes the little ones to grow unchecked.
Big guy comes swinging back, lowering/hamper your growth, while still reaping themselves. Smaller abusers get a temporary (or longer) growth spurt.
etc.
