Filthy fluff makes me grumpy!
So I've started putting some names on my naughty-list.
Fluffing up dust that has been created in genuine human interaction is tons of fun. That's what I'm here for and I want to do as much of that as I possibly can.
But not all the dust around here is created equally and I have to avoid fluffing up what's been created without any genuine intentions in order to save my strength for supporting the meaningful interactions.
Populating the Blacklist
Several bots and "curation-snipers" have been blacklisted.
I will not fluff up any dust that's either given to or created (exclusively)* by any of the accounts on my blacklist. That includes a few of those easily exploitable interaction-bots such as 
* Don't worry if a sniper is targeting you specifically. If any genuine votes are made on top of those sniper vote(s), your dust will automatically qualify for getting fluffed up again!
Excluding filthy dust allows me to support more real interactions!
I was aware of a few of these "curation-snipers" before, but I'm actually a bit surprised to find there's so many more of them out there. I'm not going to drop names here, I should probably avoid drawing their attention to this, but you can easily find some of them being discussed in the comment sections of my recent posts.
I do want to explicitly thank those concerned users who proactively brought this to my attention: 
Help me Stay Slean!

Now for some Good News
While having to deal with filthy fluff is a bit off-putting, I still made great progress in the meantime, too!
My fair-distribution scheme, the time based usage-quotas and supporter-priority-bonuses seem to be working very well. It took a little bit of time to fill my memory with enough data to make reliably fair decisions, but
These are my outgoing votes as distributed throughout the past 14 days:
source: steemreports.com
While some particularly dusty individuals on my watch-list saw a lot of their dust getting fluffed up early on, their above average usage-quota is now starting to significantly push their dust back in priority. As a matter of fact, they have started seeing a lot of their dust slipping through the cracks already as I prioritize dust of users with lower usage-quotas and especially of those who actually support me with their delegations.
I have almost 200 accounts on my watch-list now. That provides me with over 3000 dusty rewards on my radar, almost 350 of those are currently within the last 36hrs before payout and already compete to get fluffed up next.
This is made possible with Your Support!
I'm giving free fluff to plankton, red-fish and minnows alike, in order to bring value back to engaging comments and small users connecting with one another.
The amount of dust I can handle directly relates to the amount of SP I have available and it's only fair to all those who already contribute to my mission, with their delegations and donations, that their dust gets fluffed up more reliably.
THANK YOU TO MY SUPPORTERS!

Are you a small user and you miss the opportunity to give some appreciation to the best comments on your posts? You refrain from expressing yourself through your votes because you're afraid to see them wasted as dust? I'm here to help you!
Maybe you're the one leaving those great comments and you do receive a dusty vote from a well meaning user, just to risk seeing it evaporate on payday. I'll take care of that, too!
Or maybe you're a small engaged minnow and sometimes you're just spreading your love too far and wide to stay above the dust requirements... don't stop, that's awesome! Let me try and help you a bit!
Apply to get on my watch-list by commenting here or in discord.
I do reserve the right to scan your account for spam and/or excessive self-voting, but any genuine user is more than welcome here.
If you have a little SP to spare, please also consider giving a small delegation. If each of us can give a little, together we can achieve something great. And you wouldn't just want to freeload on the generosity of others forever, or would you?!
You can delegate here: 5SP | 10SP | 25SP | 50SP | 100SP
If you're ever disappointed in me, you can cancel your delegation at any time and you won't have lost a penny.
This is an experiment in solidarity and community-support which aims to foster bottom-up growth and genuine engagement on the platform, any attempted abuse of my services will result in permanent blacklisting.
