Hi Aggy
I'm certainly not scared to use the occasional bot, although it will likely be OCDB only.
I think the lack of desire right now shows who was using the bots in the main. Also, as Marky points out, users are taking a massive loss off the bat with many as they have not updated in line with 50/50.
If accounts who have stake locked up in bots for the last couple of years choose to powerdown and leave, so be it. I suspect though, that some will take the 20%+ (got a % on this?) that curation can bring on investment each year and be happy with that.

Totally agree! Then they were here for all the wrong reason(s) in the first place. But at least not to make Steem bigger and more valuable ...
Exactly.
I don't know what you can make as a manual curator with stake these days, but I bet it craps on what any bank has to offer.
Offer????? All they do is TAKE!!! hahaha.
True that :)

Just have read it (comments as well).
Did some sweet(sssj)"work" again this morning, This, and other abuse has to be restricted. In a way that it (at least) demotivates others to start something similar.
