In early 2018, there was a surge of clueless newbies. As a result, spam comments begging for upvotes among other things became commonplace. I remember getting those comments myself in the comment section of nearly every post I made. If there is one good thing about the price of STEEM having crashed, it has got to be the huge drop in the number of spam comments one type of which is begging for upvotes.
Begging for upvotes can be a nuisance and will often attract flags. Not even getting flagged to oblivion will deter the most pig-headed practitioners. It appears beggars for upvotes will always be among us and rather than trying to stem the flow, the smartest thing to do might be to make the best of it. The prettiest of roses can grow out of a pile of dung. Without further ado, I declare the contest open!
The rules:
- The time to submit your entry will end on July 31 at 23.59 EET (= GMT+3).
- Be original.
- Be entertaining.
- Use text only. Gif animations in the comments have a special place in hell.
UPDATE:
If you make an entry, could you please clearly mark it as an entry? I'd hate to have to guess whether your comment is an entry into this contest or the genuine article! :D Also, clearly marking your comment as an entry or a part of your comment as your entry, might make it psychologically easier to beg creatively as you would not being doing it as yourself.
