The bots are necessary at this time since there is not a lot of equity spread. Lately, payout has slumped even further for me and it does have an effect on how much time I can spend on an article. Spending 5 or 6 hours developing detailed content for 45 cents may not be an effective use of my time. Even though I enjoy writing a lot, there still has to be some feedback value otherwise it is facebook, linkedin and Twitter all rolled into one where a micro proportion take the lion's share.

Greetings, @tarazkp, very nice to "meet" you here today. :)
Thank you very much for visiting, reading, and offering your thoughtful comments. I visited your Steemit blog to learn a bit more about you, and as a result I have both followed you and re-steemed your very fine article about rewards.
That can indeed be very frustrating! For me, one of the most frustrating aspects has been the almost random consequences of precisely when I click the [POST] button. Sometimes an article that I dashed off in an hour or less during a fit of creativity, or sometimes a single photograph with minor comments, will gain more support than something that I've worked on over a period of days or weeks.
One thing that keeps me going is the promise that Steemit will persevere, and will become a long-term archive of my work. I contemplate the possibility that my descendants may one day access the Steemit blockchain and learn a little bit about their ancestor.
Thank you again for your visit! I hope you'll access my Topical Table of Contents and find some other articles of interest to you.
Thank you for taking the time to respond. I have the same contemplation yet I also give it a fifty/fifty chance my descendants are actually a physical part of the blockchain itself anyway.
I also am looking long-term for Steemit but it is quite soul destroying at times. Luckily, I have quite a lot of soul.
However, I do wonder how many people will cope with the lack of consistency in recognition. I have read comments like 'I have been here a week and now understand how this works'... are you sure?
There is a lot of growth to come and it will be interesting to see where it leads. I plan on being a part of it anyway.
I just had a look at where I draft. Still 250 unfinished works to come and each day it grows yet my fingers do not get any faster at typing.
Hahahaha! I share that problem with you... See here for a partial list of articles to come:
Your fingers? Try using a better keyboard... I would, except I'm too lazy to learn Dvorak or other better technologies... :O
