Hi Scott, thanks for this detailed post. It is obvious that you guys are making an effort to keep this platform a safe and just place for writers to share their original stories. I really appreciate your efforts.
I recently wrote a post where I clearly mentioned why I would never read your article and one of the reasons was "if you specifically ask me to read your article" which clearly comes in "read for read" and "follow for follow " category.
I hope to see less spam and more genuine readers and followers from now on.
Thanks once again.
