My comment was not for others, however, it was specifically directed at trafalgar, a person with more influence over the network than thousands of Steem users combined. It is not easy to obtain $17 worth of upvotes from the community outside of bot services. Now, when I looked at your account, I noticed that you did use bidbots, but also your posts were progamming related posts. There is a lot more curation support for developers than any other type of project, so you might have a different experience from other types of authors and believe that it is easy to obtain $17 worth in upvotes. In reality, most of the whales upvote within their circles with the exception of supporting independent programmers.
