I had to use DeepSeek to make my text more readable because we have very diligent readers among the bosses, otherwise they wouldn't understand what I see and think . After all, I'm paying this post 100% back to HIVEPOOL to show how to do things honestly ... although I don't like doing it to feed the bot army .
The Fucking Problem with Downvotes, Bots, and a System That Feeds the Whales
The Hive ecosystem has a critical fucking flaw: the downvote mechanism is easily exploited. When a user is knowingly and intentionally downvoted out of greed—simply to benefit someone else—the system should have a way to rectify this. There should be a counter-measure where the value of that downvote is returned directly to the wronged user, who lost their rightful earnings through no fault of their own.
But this doesn't happen. Why? Because the aggressive use of flags and downvotes, from all sides, ultimately feeds the top whales. They grow larger by profiting from the pool whenever rewards are destroyed. All it takes is a manufactured controversy to justify a downvote campaign, and the "pool business" booms. These top users, often employing bots, aggressively extract value from the communal pool, printing more and more coins for themselves at everyone else's expense. This doesn't help normal users, no matter which "side" you're on. I call those who flag for profit "whale feeders."
Furthermore, automated bots used for farming rewards should have been banned long ago, even projects that require bots or AI tools just to organize the page, these tools are not designed to earn and print coins. They provide no real value and act like a cancer, silently draining the system. Any rewards earned by bots should be 100% paid back to the rewards pool. It doesn't matter how big you are; this must be done.
I can proudly say I've managed a single Hive account for nine years without any fucking bots or 100 fake pages, I only have two backup pages in case my first page stops working and I can't get in. In that time, I've watched countless fucking schemes and hollow projects come and go as if there was no tomorrow to come. Their primary function is to create an excuse to extract value from the pool. The most frustrating part is those who use bots often claim they "don't have time." How the fuck did I manage to do it for 9 years then? I WAS USE JUST ONE PAGES :))) It’s a choice. A choice to be a whale feeder and fucking destroy the platform, especially small users who simply praise it that we need flags and have moment of anger towards someone, but don't look at the tool from a longer perspective and how it will be used to make money.
It’s a funny fucking Hive world.
