steem is a decentralized cryptocurrency so thus it seems there is no one to regulate the forum. The only thing the community can do is downvote the articles that are literally copy/pasta, bot generated, and troll/clickbait.
Also, how does upvoting a post/have a post upvoted/commenting works? there seems to be no repercussion
for spamming upvote, so if one just upvotes everything in sight, wouldnt that be optimum way to maximize profit?
I am new to the forum/system and I am kind of skeptical of this whole thing. Is there anyone who can answer my questions?
