RE: Bots on Steemit

in #steemit8 years ago

I see bots that are downvoting other bots that are downvoting other bots... Which are commenting on every post that they can find.

This is becoming a bad cycle for Steemit. There should be no bots at all.

(And take a look at your upvote count, mate. All of them are bots.)

Sort:  

I know, it's shocking. How do I even stop this. It's ruining the economy of how Steemit is supposed to function.

You can't ruin something that is already fundamentally flawed. If bots were successfully banned people would still vote up content that makes them money, it's human nature, we all want something for nothing.

That's when we build the community on the basis of greed, and selfishness. If people do it for eachother, it will work.

I see your skepticism.

I think greed and selfishness are harsh terms to use, people naturally act in what they consider is their best interests like the developers of this site, they are taking 80% of the income and sticking it in their back pockets, if they were interested in the long term future they would not be leaching most of the money that should be paid out in rewards from us.

Self interest.
