Observation and Analysis - The Firepower of Spamming

@kpine, @blocktrades, @thejohalfiles, @roelandp, @acidyo, @arama, @newsflash, @donkeypong, @steemaccess, @damarth, you may not know that you are SUPPORTING a SPAMMER of STEEMIT!

The spammer is @firepower. According to SteeM.V.P. (http://steemvp.com), @kpine is the biggest supporter of @firepower and followed by @blocktrades as the second. I don't believe these whales are aware of the fact that they were supporting a spammer. The major purpose of this post is to point this out and hopefully to get the attention of these whales, so they won't support spammers anymore.

Recently, @firepower went to the range of my radar by commenting two of my posts, Link1 and Link2, within a short period. Even though he complimented my posts with the sweet words of These are some incredible pictures! I loved your work! and Fantastic photos of the beautiful beach!, he did not take any effort to upvote either of my posts.

I welcome any sincere comments, no matter it is compliment or criticism, long or short, with or without an upvote. However, I do not welcome SPAMS. Upvoting my post or not, as long as the reader reads my post and leaves a message, I would appreciate it, no matter how simple the comment is. If a reader reads my post and leave a simple comment such as 'Interesting', I would like to say 'Thank you' to the reader for spending time to read my post and leave message.

For Mr. @firepower, apparently it's not the case. Checking Mr. @firepower's history with SteemSQL, I found that he wrote 4,866 comments since September 1, 2017, more than 100 comments per day. Well, it's definitely possible to read 100 posts and leave comment to each post everyday.

Take a closer look at the @firepower's comment pattern, we can find out how many comments he burst out during a short period. The following screenshot of SteemSQL result shows he could 'write' 20 comments to 20 different authors in 20 minutes:

Well, you may tell me that it's possible to read a post and write comment in one minute. Let's have a closer look, what kind of comments Mr. @firepower wrote. I just did a random search with SteemSQL to check how many comments are the exactly the same as These are some incredible pictures! I loved your work!, the one he wrote in my post. The answer is, since September 1, 2017, he wrote 67 exactly same comments. Since June 1, 2017, he wrote 91 exactly same comments.

Then, I went to his page to check his profile, which shows:

About: Steemit.Chat Admin, Project Curie, SteemCleaners & RHW! Helping build a Stronger Steemit Community everyday!
Followers: 12,747
Posts: 13,415
Following: 82,578
Website: steemit.chat
Rep: 69
Steem Power: 30,576

Mr. @firepower's profile makes me believe he is associated with @steemcleaners. As I know, @steemcleaners is an account to fight spam. How comes the member of spamming fighter is a spammer himself? Is Mr. @firepower a experimental account to test the effects of spamming? Highly appreciated if anybody can give me any clue of any relationship of @firepower and @steemcleaners.

In a post of an interview, Mr. @firepower mentioned:

What he said sounds very good. But what he did just like Interact as many people as robotically possible with spamming.

Then, I came across a statistics post wrote by @ace108, which counts the top commenters. In the post, Mr. @firepower are mentioned many times. This is a very good resource to read. I believe Mr. @firepower is a spammer. You can go to @ace108's post to check the statistics to make your own judgement whether he is a spammer or not.

@kpine, @blocktrades, @thejohalfiles, @roelandp, @acidyo, @arama, @newsflash, @donkeypong, @steemaccess, @damarth, @livingfree, @vcelier, @analisa, @steemcleaners, @adm, @sherlockholmes: sorry to bother you, and I hope you could read my article and find out whether Mr. @firepower is a spammer or not, and make decision whether continue to support Mr. @firepower or not.

If any whales believe @firepower's action can be tolerated by Steemit, please kindly let me know. I believe I can write a better robot to post comments everywhere to gain attentions from more users.

Thanks for reading.

观察与分析之奇葩列传

作为草根的我每天绞尽脑汁写什么文章，正愁观察与分析没有米下锅，这时候 @firepower闯进来了。这不是送上门的菜吗，今天就写他了。

前几天次人给我的两个帖子写了热情洋溢的评论。作为草根，我是门前冷落鞍马稀，好不容易来个评论我都认真对待。去看了一下 @firepower是何许人，结果发现声望是69，SP是三万多。虽然不是大鲸，也应该算个牛人吧。再看他的资料又是steemit.chat，又是steemcleaners，感觉像个人物。

既然大人物夸奖，被赞的帖子理应涨价一点吧，结果并没有。原来此君只评论不点赞。其实只评论不点赞也没什么。我写帖子是为了让大家读，如果有人读了帖子又写了评论，哪怕简简单单两个字“好贴”，我都是心存感激。

但是 @firepower不一样。去看他的对别人的评论，每分钟一条，很多评论都是一模一样，目测是用一个机器人拿几个模版四处发评论，每分钟一条垃圾评论发给不同用户。

发垃圾发到我头上不要紧，但是作为一个声望是69的人物这是不能忍的。查了一下SteemSQL，发现他不到四十天发了四千八百多条评论，每天一百多条，很多都一样。

此人的首页信息让我感觉他是steemit.chat的一个负责人，也是 @steemcleaners的负责人。也许我理解错了，反正我是这样感觉的。cleaners不是复杂清理垃圾的吗？怎么负责人带头发垃圾？

然后看到了 @ace108的统计帖子发现此人是发垃圾评论最多的人之一。

大家如果感兴趣可以看我写的英文和ace108的统计。我在英文中呼吁赞 @firepower的大鲸们辨别一下此人到底是不是垃圾制造者，这种行为到底能不能容忍。如果这种行为是可以的，我分分钟可以写一个机器人做同样的事情吸引更多用户来赞我的贴。

另外我还想问这个 @firepower到底跟 @steemcleaners到底什么关系？有没有大鲸出面管一管？

谢谢阅读
