RE: Stop complaining about Steemit
The choice of post-promoters used may have also played a role in the down-votes received.

Would you downvote me just because I used a bot to attract the attention on this post just because I am tired of complainings?
Come on, we all know the bots are not profitable at all so I am not abusing at all.
Nope, I wouldn't.
But then again, @transisto may have other reasons. I'm just speculating.
Some bots allow their services even after 3 days of the post pass. Stay away from using those as, the Steemit community doesn't take kindly to them.
They promote abusing bot votes at the eleventh hour so that the post doesn't reach Trending and goes unnoticed, while making profits on a shit post.
Not implying yours is one or you abused it.
Maybe you used those blacklisted bots?
I want to be clear. As I said everyone has the right to do everything, to upvote or to downvote.
The thing I don't like is a downvote without a good reason.
Cheers. Case closed for me
I guess people start to have a closer look at articles that are boosted with a long list if bidbots. So some might use their downvotes in order to balance rewards then. It's the price you pay for the high exposure on the trending page :-) The more attention, the more observation.
Looks like 75% of the upvotes of your article were paid, so that makes it a bit vulnerable (source: steemworld.org), and that may also be the reason why you received 3 x 100% downvotes. But I'm just guessing :-)
Yes, you might be right! I am just tired of complainings and I wanted to attract a lot of people here.
I hope it is clear I am not abusing using these bots, I was in loss anyway, even without those downvotes.
I am worried that minnows with qualitative posts have no place in trending. I will keep paying these bots, losing my SBD, just to see if there will be any other downvotes without any ethical reason!
Thank you for your comment!
I think in a vivid community we need both: positive drive combined with mutual support - and constructive debate. Like in any other relationship :-)
Hopefully the trending page will be less important, once the community feature is installed. Then attention may be spread more into the different sub-communities, and fields of interests could become much more attractive than pure financial outcome.
Downvotes actually don't take anything away from you since the reward is not yours until it's been transfered to your wallet. Still they make us feel uncomfortable... Buuut we've always the possibility to directly ask the downvoters for their reasons (e.g. at steemit.chat or on discord). I've done that a couple of times, and mostly it ended up in some nice conversations - no kidding :-)
Have a great day, and keep being positive :-)
I am positive! Thank you!
I can't wait to see the community feature & how that will change mindsets!
You're right, he could've cleared it up.
Cheers!
That's why I am on this post, @benjojo downvoted me twice and I want to know why
Maybe he didn't agree with some of your ideas. After some more time on Steemit you will start appreciating people like him.
He downvoted me too & I realised why. I didn't know him before but I read a lot of his comments, maybe you should do the same.
Good luck!
I wont learn much with maybe's, would like a clear response, I don't see the point in downvoting someone without an explanation, his .06 downvotes are begging for retaliation and I don't see a point to this.
