I agree with you @mrwanderlust, and I'm glad you let me know how you feel about it :) I think the point of pay bots is that you are not paying them to like your post, you are paying them to upvote it. I did a post the other day that had five comments within the first four minutes telling me they liked the post, but not one of them up voted it. I feel that (rightfully or not) there is at least a slight separation between truly liking a post and upvoting it. It's a fine balance to tread when we are in an ecosystem that gives more than superficial rewards for your work, and we are all figuring it out as we go. There have been voting bots on Steemit since it first started, they were geared towards automated content curation which helped rich whales enrich themselves further, but minnows had no control over them. Now at least there are bots that can be mutually beneficial. Thanks for the upvote man! I'll be back to my photography posts now, I just like to do one of these types every once in a while ;)

thanks @dexter-k, that reply helped a lot. I get your intentions now. Oh and those "I like your post" comments are really annoying, I get them too from time to time
