3 warning signs, 4 points
Three or more points: I leave it out of search results unless you ask to see curators with several signs.

- 4% high-value followersSteam counts only 4% of its followers as "high value" accounts. For half the curators I track it's over 55%. Bought or bot followers would push this down.2 pts
Each sign comes with the reason, so you can check it. How each sign works.
When it posts
One square per day over the last year. Real reviewers post a few times a week; resellers post in floods.
I've read 100 of its posts, back to Feb 12, 2022. Steam shows the latest 100 at a time, so older days may be missing.
Follower history
Bought followers arrive in jumps. Real curators gain a few a day.
I record every curator's followers once a day, starting Oct 31, 2026. The chart appears after three readings, and marks any jump of 500 or more in a week. Nobody else keeps this history, and it can't be filled in after the fact.
Same games, same days
No other curator recommended 8 or more of the same games on the same days. That's the normal case.
What it covers
Share of its 97 positive and informational posts I've read whose game carries the tag. Broad tags like Indie and Action are left out.
