I will be looking at the upvotes. I am happy to delegate more Steem Power, but I need to see you voting on those who are making a real effort and who are producing genuine content.
I don't want the Bangladeshi community getting a bad reputation like so many other communities that are full of spam and plagiarism.
I would also like to see more Bangladeshi steemians delegations to @steemitbd so you're able to have a stronger vote to support the community. I would even suggest a minimum delegation to @steemitbd before someone can buy an upvote. That way we know they are invested in the community.

It should be our major scope : Fighting against abuse and support original writers. I hope you will ensure no one taking any advantage of it.
