It's very nice what you are doing by boosting content on leofinance. I am on that list and happy about that.
I do disagree on this attitude that you expressed on the following:
I have noticed some degree of negative reaction last few days. Perhaps my banner posts (in comment area) are becoming to annoying for many. So from now on, I will do it in a silent mode, and will not post those banners anymore.
Lets set things straight: you are the user with the most LP in this community and chose to share some 100% upvotes on a daily basis, with some of the content creators in here. What's wrong with that? You could have simply set an auto vote and put your money to work... but NO.
This Toruk was here message is a label, your label, and personally have nothing against it. I would also ask the ones getting such sort of reactions if they felt that negative as well when bid bots were boosting posts on Steemit and leaving this type of automated messages on posts that were paying for upvotes.
I guess they were not that vocal back then...
I applaud your attitude towards using your VP organically and supporting users who bring value to the platform. It's way way better than simply setting a curation trail for your VP or some auto votes, boosting the same users over and over again.
Congratulations for being able to harness that much LP and have fun using it!

I don't want even remember steem, justinsun, ned or anything related to them. Nor I like even hear comparisons.
We can, and we will do things different, our Leo style.
Unfortunately, I still see several our top LEO stake holders (from LEO TOP20) using the most simple, dumb autovoters, which vote on the 30-th second, or within first 2 minutes. Absolutely clear they do the votes on the same authors, again and again, no matter what BS they are posting. So sad.
Sure, not every investor has time to do quality curation. Fine, I can understand this.
Then why not to set a following (!) voting bot, which will cast a vote on posts which are at least qualifying fir the minimum requirements??? Set it to follow votes of taskmaster, khaleelkazi, abh12345, empoderat, mindtrap, make it to kick in once your power exceeds 98%, and when target posts are at least a day or two old - and you are fine. This would work as enforcer, amplifier of your preferred and respected curator. And NOBODY will ever get a chance to blame you on a dumb use of your stake.
We all have our favorite authors. But even the best of them sometimes fail. We all fail (sometimes)
Such dumb autovoting makes those targets (authors) to relax, post multiple times a day low value stuff, and removes the motivation and desire to grow - completely.

True. I've seen that as well, but it's their VP, time and dedication so... who am I to judge.
Moreover, they somehow take the chance away from others to make themselves known on the platform. I'm old fashioned and I like human interaction on every level. Bots may have their purposes as well but not projects where socializing is mandatory.

If you follow my votes, then you are following the leo finance curation account, as that it what i do :)
I want to second that. There's always going to be some negativity, but I felt like that Toruk was here banner was something special, an approval of excellence if you will.

Exactly. It's not like you would see it on some crappy posts spamming the platform.
