Hey @cardboard, would you consider switching @tipu to manual curation or following a curation trail or something other than selling votes that undermines the EIP?

Hi @acidyo, thanks for reaching me out. Already doing both but I also still sell votes. Once I will be able to power down enough steem to pay the investors (about 2 months) I will most probably make the ROI for vote selling at 0% or quit it entirely.

Thanks for replying! I think even at 0% people would use it to beat the curve tax and unfairly advantage over those not buying votes. I wouldn't mind if you would sell unprofitable votes for people wanting to use it for promotion but having better tools to notify curators about each bid bot and what kind of vote they gave would surely help, or authors would burn part of the rewards or send them to the dao when promoting something with profitable votes, the former would of course help you keep more vp for curation. Thanks for the info, though.

Thanks for the tip! Usually people just take what they feel like it, and the artist doesn't know any better. Getting tipped is much better... as is just being informed that someone liked the art enough to use it as a wallpaper.
