Great Projects , even crucial one's like mine don't get exposure to many eyes. Sometimes one has to make a decision whether to use bots to get their word out, or do it organically which many have pointed out as being extremely hard to do. It's not the average bot user's fault that the network has been construed to fit the agendas of the most powerful here. We're left with little option as minnows and dolphins especially. They've built these highways now man, and the majority of people are not willing to ride horse and carriages anymore. I don't know how to fix that I have to be honest. Perhaps we could propose an option in the steemit.com permissions tab to "allow" promoted content in which case each bot owner pays a percentage of it's earnings or gross delegated SP into a fund that pays each account that opts-in to view "promoted" posts? Use that SP for something good that will help people. Using it to power up in order to fight a war with bots will only cause more anguish for the innocent people caught in the crossfire. I'm not saying do nothing and it's our own right to protect ourselves from any threat, But we can launch bullets without guns too.

That's a great idea. How about the folks opting to receive promoted posts in their feed are recipients of the overage? Seems fair to me.
