RE: WHAT'S YOUR VIEW ON BOTS? Promotion tool or necessary evil? Let me share my personal view.
Bots are legitimate business on STEEM. If you use bots to earn something, ROI is low. I am using bots just to get better visibility for my articles and they are great for this purpose.
Thank you for your reply.
Did you ever get downvoted by anyone for that reason? Im seriously curious.
Yours
Piotr
The only time I have been downvoted for using a bot was when it was an "unapproved" bot that upvotes posts older than 3.5 days old. For whatever reason grumpycat was going around downvoting people who had used such services.
Thank you for your kind reply and sharing your experience. i appreciate. thx
I got downvoted twice for using bots and I was told that my content was not good enough to upvote it into trending page.
grumpycat is great example of 'steemit police' :/
Es un tema interesante mi opinión es que benefician a muy pocos y sobre todo a los más expertos que son los que menos los necesitan debieran de a ver más apoyo a los más nuevos, inexpertos y con menos recursos de la mayor forma posible hasta llevarlos a un nivel de autosostenibilidad.
It is an interesting topic my opinion is that they benefit very few and especially the most experts who are the ones who need them the least. They should see more support for the newest, inexperienced and with less resources as much as possible until they reach a level of self-sustainability.
thank you for your input.
cheers, Piotr
Your name has me laughing
No. Why would downvote somebody for using bots? This is free market and you can do whatever you want. I always only do Upvote if I like somebody's article or comment. I would downvote only if somebody is offensive...

It's not only free market. It's wild world here and those who have loads of SP can shape this place to their own desires.
Im sure you've heard about flag wars. Flagging is using as a weapon on steemit. Unfortunatelly.
ps.
Would you mind sending me short email to [email protected]? I would lovef to be able to keep in touch and support each other on Steemit.
I wish there would be more advanced notification system developed by steemit.
No pressure of course :)
Cheers, Piotr
Some bot owners have their rules for users and maybe your post wasn't by their rules.
You can use busy.org or eSteem. They have many things better than Steemit.
Ive been thinking about trying busy.org, minds.com and medium.com
have you tried any of those?
ps.
you're very responsive which is absolutely great and steemit community surely will benefit by having you here.
if you would ever like to keep in touch and support each other closer, then drop me a message [email protected]. This will allow us to communicate easier.
No pressure of course,
Cheers, Piotr
No. Some my friends are using it and they like it but I am Steemit guy :-)
And that's why a total random is at 64 reputation. Bravo.
