Intro

Steemit is an increasing populous community. Seeing more beggar becomes more common, in a form of asking for the upvote.

`(10 minutes reading)`

![beggar](https://techcomic.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/websiteless.gif) **_image source: clickable_** --- We become immune to the normalcy of beggars here. These _poor_ people behavior is a global epidemic in our ecosystem. And this becomes a serious problem. It is threatening our community. It is a disease and it needs to be cured. But... Before that, we need to understand the disease itself. The act of begging is a _target behavior_. The donations received from the act increases the likelihood of the behavior. The fact is that not all people are so _generous_. Do you think that beggar should lose hope and stop their habit? I don't think so, begging, the more it does the more they feel reinforced.

Why choose to be a beggar?

I believe, as a _freshly_ new-comer to Steemit, no one wants to choose to become a beggar at first. But later, once they found that their creativity is not rewarded as hoped, worsened by when they witnessing other low-value creativities are rewarded more, they become desperate. They start to hunt _rich people_ and ask for charity in a form of **upvote** for their post.

What Should We Do?

To stereotyping them all are spammers I don't think it as a wise decision. Begging is an activity that driven either by laziness or they already try the best but still lack of support from the community. It's not an easy job to distinguish both types of them. Below is the table of the last 50 begging action. I hope this finding could help you to look into it deeper and help you to propose the best **_medicine_** for this _disease_ Data taken from SteemData.com, query used to generate this list is: `db.Comments.aggregate( [{ "$match": { "$and": [{ "$or": [{ "$or": [{ "body": /^.*please upvote.*$/i }, { "body": /^.*upvote me.*$/i } ] }, { "body": /^.*vote me.*$/i } ] }, { "$or": [{ "$or": [{ "body": /^.*good post.*$/i }, { "body": /^.*nice post.*$/i } ] }, { "body": /^.*help me.*$/i } ] } ] } }, { "$project": { "Time": { "$concat": [ "
