RE: Vote Bots: Great tool or destroying the SteemIt community?
I don't have the time to split posts, link them together, etc, just to chase the extra payout. I have plenty on my hands already, even not counting the day job and the kids! But I've noted a general trend for shorter posts, a photo with few paragraphs... So that sucks for me, as I'm a fan of longer format. Maybe I should make another account where I would just share photos with bits of text - not much use in that except the visual impression.
Reposting sounds like a good solution, however that would split comments. Maybe in a future version of Steem we'll be able to repost the original content on demand, for example pay a fee and mark the post as a new one, keeping all the comments.
I have no idea how the community would react to that, maybe we should ask the others in the chat?
Hey @bobydimitrov. I understand the comment splitting would be sad. I hope steemit will implement a long time solution for content just like you sketch it. Otherwise I will not get old on this platform, as I really would like to dive deep into the long format as well and this speedy (and daily) publishing are not what I am after.
And to be clear and honest: Steemit IS about earning money for me. It sabout earning money with helping others and the spreading knowlege in a community that values these efforts and sharings. If I would not be here for the money, I would certainly not put up with all that spam, flagging plagiarism and fighting for this site to become a content page, rather than a fast click stock market.
