RE: Let's all Stop Using Randowhale And other Voting Bots.

in #blog7 years ago

I used minnowsupport and randowhale once each. I won't be using them again. I have mixed feelings too about them, but I want to grow because of my content only. If it takes longer to be noticed, I'm perfectly fine with it. That's how it should be. I'll also work harder that way!

Sort:  

And I truly feel you, as a blogger, will be respected more for it. I WILL say that using these voting bots to boost a post you feel is undervalued, is not only a fantastic way to give yourself a bit of power beyond voting, but will also shine a great light on yourself that opens you up to a flood of attention.

I'll happen! :) Building a following is easy enough through engagement, so I'm focusing on that and good content that people find valuable.

I agree, blogging on steemit is like growing tomato's, if you are patient and wait for them to grow they will taste lovely, but if you force them to grow quick then they'll be like the ones you get in the shops, tasteless

Yes! That's a great way to look at it @markwhittam. I began farming tomatoes this year and can vouch that they love to be encouraged - just as we all do - but do not respond well to being forced to grow. We allow them to establish & produce as they were meant to. Patience & Hard Work pays for the farm 😉

Thank you, I know nothing about growing yet, but it made sense in my head, and now I have a grower agreeing with me so I must be right.
Thank you for the feedback
