I don't believe anyone brought up haejin but you. Scammers are very common on the steem network. We know this because we keep up with @steemcleaners and they are constantly identifying hundreds and thousands of accounts belonging to a very small amount of users.

The reason they are so motivated to make new accounts it because they can spam comments and "worthless" votes that pay out 3.5-4x more than normal.

Smooth is working to reduce the price of SBD, which should be valued around $1 if the mechanism it was designed to handle was working properly. The fact that you feel entitled to the high post rewards at SBD higher than $1 is precisely the problem that I believe this experiment is trying to correct.

Now .. to your point about "stealing" from minnows. If all users have a right to use their stake how they wish, then why does that exclude smooth? He has a right to self vote and other users have a right to vote his posts because we agree with the fundamentals behind the experiment.

The method smooth is using here is incredibly selfless. The fact that you think his "alt account is making more than you" just screams jealously to me, even though smooth is not profiting from these posts.

You say that users are too lazy to vote also. I would say the votes on the post prove that isnt true. Users are too worried about getting into flag wars with huge users because they will be counter-flagged to oblivion. Especially when you have a multi-million dollar whale acting like an emotional child when anyone speaks against their methods.

Smooth, as an example, decided to vote for your comments that weren't really of a very clean tone.

So go ahead and toss around your own accusations of scam while condemning users for doing the same. I am sure that level of participation in the community will do a lot for helping you to earn the money you seek on Steem.

Also CAPITALIZING CERTAIN WORDS doesnt really make your point any better.

My question to you:

Why would you "attack" one of the few whale users that is actively trying to make changes through his own actions instead of focusing on the "lazy non-voters" ?

Your viewpoint that this post is short sited is highly ironic to me. The experiment is meant to occur over a period of time (minimum of a week for any effects to be noticed from the first post, possibly much longer) and will benefit every single SP holder.

Take a hint: Sell your SBD for STEEM.
