I'm sorry if apparently I did what you call bit not abuse.

I've used bots before but it's changed now.

I still spent the same $100 like I always did before on bots and I never had any issues.

Except I couldn't bid so high like before on the bots, so I took the same $100 I would always spend before and spread it across over different bots for my article about Modafinil.

Sorry if that's not good but I think it's kind of silly since it's the same $100 I would always spend before but never had any issues.

As the steem price goes down, the vote value of bots also goes down. That means that your 100$ is now worth a lot more in steem, so you got upvoted into trending. If you were not on the trending page, I wouldn't downvote you.

But anyway, using bidbots is not something to be encouraged, some people will still downvote you for any amount used.

Okay thanks for the tips. It makes sense as my lasts posts were a while ago and Steem was definitely a different price. I think the only saving grace is that it's not like this is totally a sham piece of content. I spent many hours putting this together and if I happened to be at the top for my bid bot abuse, at least it was a decent piece of content.

I get it though, thanks again
