Alright, maybe we got off on the wrong foot so going to try again.

Maybe your motives / intentions are actually good and perhaps my real issue is your method or how you are going about it.

I have been a vocal critic against using bid bots for many reasons but one of my biggest is they promote the thing they call shit posting. Not saying that is what this post is but giving them your business gives them more power and I am against them. I may be ok with non-profit bots with high quality standards like @ocdb but most bid bots I have found support a significant amount of abuse. It is what it is.

My second issue is the resteem thing as I find it to be gimmicky. It's easy to get plankton to do what you want when you are offering something but I think it would help Steem if we had more honest curators. Not those that vote or resteem because they want something but rather because they believe in the substance of the content.

As I said, my self-votes are not intentional as they are done via steemauto. I would disable the self vote on the trail in a second once that feature is available but I like following the trail to support the anti-abuse community.

Perhaps, we have similar goals in regard to community but maybe we just disagree on the way to achieve them. That's ok. We are able to agree to disagree if that is the case.
