Was it really a “trending page club” as you put it...?
Yes. Yes it was. Relevant information and arguments/critiques can be found here.

My point (before reading your link) was that surely their intentions weren’t that horrible.
I don’t care much for stated intentions. I look at the actual behavior and results.
Just take a look at some of their replies to that post to see how shitty they acted as super-important and naturally “good” people. And then realize that they’ve always acted that way...and likely still do.

Hey @personz!
I read one of your comments and the idea of creating a "Bot or not" program/app/... How did that go?
I am very interested in knowing how many/precentage of bots amongst the active users here on steemit...
That was a nice idea, I didn't make the effort to do it though.
I think perhaps it has been done better than I could have imagined by @andybets and his Steem Sincerity project https://steemit.com/steemdev/@steemreports/visualising-spam-scores
Thanks @personz, I am going to look into that, nice talking to you!
