Thanks for the reply @nanzo-scoop I have been aware of you curation performance for some time, so I appreciate your opinion on the matter.
With regards to the Bot's front-running @wang, this was deduction I made based on voting behaviour on certain authors posts. Where @wang votes, there is a list of the same accounts, in the same order voting before him consistently, I cannot commit to these accounts being bot's or not, however the impact is the same either way. Maybe someone should do a 'bot bait' post to see this in action..? ;)
With regards to their demise. I was merely making a point that, unless they evolve, they will die. Your points on bot's working on better strategies and generally evolving will of coarse stem this demise (completely in the short term). Bot's being forced to evolve is only a good thing for all users of Steemit. I do think that, if Steemit is successful, there will be a significant arms race in this sector that should nullify almost all current bot developers.
Imagine Google Deepmind turned their Artificial Intelligence to Steemit Curation...
