That wasn't the reasoning that the flagger provided. Moreover, it's not raping the reward pool to post multiple times if a particular user is upvoting you. This phraseology needs to either be refined or dropped altogether. There's no evidence of spam botting or collusion here that I've seen or anyone's provided evidence for. Trying to maximize a stroke of good fortune is not rape in any appreciable sense. Her post was flagged because: (1) the flagger decided that she wasn't popular enough to warrant the payout, and (2) because "novels aren't a good fit" for Steemit. This is from the flagger directly. To both of those counts, I can only balk at the sheer arrogance of the person doing the flagging. Moreover, if you were in that position and witnessed this, are you suggesting you'd aim to remove her rewards completely? Despite the fact her content is not only original but generally higher quality than a large portion of content posted to the platform?

As I said it is only my point of view. The reasoning behind his actions is not strong, it’s rather invalid I agree. People here, from my experience, have a problem to admit that the biggest motivation for everyone on Steemit is money. When you spot that someone is getting ridiculous rewards (subjective matter) for the value the user is bringing you try to find better reasoning than "bigger value than what is deserved". I think that when you hit that wealthy trail, you should try to further increase the quality of the posting, instead of its frequency. I personally deem that as a rewardpoolrape and if I was the trail I would immediately remove the auto-upvote. What evidence do you want? I didn’t understand that one sorry. And as to your questions. No If I had the power I would tell her my problem (I always do when it’s not spammer with the same comment all over the platform...that I flag directly). I would be interested in hearing out what she thinks prior to taking action. I wouldn’t definitely remove 100% (if the post had 100 bucks value) rather 50% if we didn’t reach a consensus. Also If I was the trail I would just remove the vote. I am an advocate for quality rather than quantity and I have spotted the spamming syndrome in there. That most of the content is of lesser quality is irrelevant, I would just find different content of high quality (from my point of view)...Hope I made myself clearer than in the comment before:)

I have a problem with your reasoning. Right now my vote is only worth $0.010. Most people could care less about my vote at this stage. I voted on most of those post that were flagged. Any reward I would have gotten is pretty much toast. If I vote I comment. Some of those comments Michelle found good enough to vote on, so that means I will get a reward. Now you are telling me that when my vote eventually rises to $100.00 *(if that's possible)*, and I really liked a post that it would be a waste of my time to vote what I think it is worth because you are going to come along and adjust it to what **YOU** think it is worth? Please tell me why I or anyone else should vote on anything if it is only **You** and **transisto** that are capable of deciding what a payout/persons vote should be worth?

You’ve done several “discussion fouls” in here. First of all where do I imply that I and transistor are the only one who can adjust the payout? EACH AND EVERY INVESTOR (stakeholder) can do that. Michele had early voters on her and value of her post was every time too high for you to get anything out of curation from her posts at your stage. If you want to understand why feel free to check this [tutorial]( https://steemit.com/curation/@fingersik/tutorial-how-curation-works-steemit-noobs-edition-strategy-for-users-with-sp-0-1500). The fact that she has voted for your comment is absolutely irrelevant. Good for you I guess, but it doesn’t have anything to do with the post and with what people think about its value. [If you accept the upvote you have to accept the downvote too]( https://steemit.com/steemit/@schattenjaeger/if-you-accept-the-upvotes-you-really-need-to-accept-the-downvotes) Its really that simple:). I do not have the right to suppose that I know what is good for the system, but you neither dear Steemit user. Your comment is more or less and emotional outburst without any valid argument…
