Hi, yes I've never understood why people bitch about the bid bots, I think it's because they are an easy target?
Steem & Steemit have the potential to be revolutionary, they just need more adoption = create instant signups, better user retention = get rid of the law bots and increased user engagement = wait for the steem price to go up.
Quite simple really. 😁
I understand. It would be preferable if merit was the only factor in the rewards... but unfortunately that's not realistic. At least, not yet. Hopefully, in the future, we'll have enough active users to get rid of them.
Thanks for participating in my Art Curation Initiative #5
I agree about merit, but that doesn't really work does it? I'm not convinced. You will need to market yourself to succeed. Whatever approach you take some marketing work needs to be done.
At the moment you are doing the marketing for some brilliant artists, noble as that is, but why are you doing that, rather than themselves?
Bid bots are a marketing tool in my opinion and should be seen that way (useful not harmful).
@cryptothoughts: because I believe we should all help each other. Also, this platform won't survive without talented people sharing their works! :-D
Fair play, sorry if I sounded a bit harsh, I just get frustrated when I see talented peeps leave, when all they need to do is pick up the tools that are here. If I was artistic I would be flying on steemit.
No problems. I think we're all a bit nervous at the moment - due to the uncertain future of the network. We better support each other cause we're all floating or sinking together. :-P
