RE: A post of very little value.

Thanks for the comment and follow.

It really is not that shady as these tools are know by some. I plan to make sure everyone knows how to use them and each person can determine on there own if they are comfortable using them.

Stay tuned, I'll be posting the 1st article soon (later today perhaps)

Sort:  

Well, that's the thing. I don't even upvote my own posts. I don't really understand why that's even an option. If the idea of this platform is to reward for quality content, and you post something, wouldn't you think it is of value and quality? I'm interested to see what the tools are and how to use them, but can only possibly see myself using anything to get to a point where things I post might get seen by others who may have interest in what I have to say and share. I also realize that bots are fair game and can't be stopped, but it again seems counterproductive to me in a platform like this.

Well said.
A lot of people copy and paste nonsense, change a few words and call it there own. Then try to pump it up with bid-bots and paid votes. This generally fails since all it takes is one or two whales to knock you off the platform for posting garbage.

But using these tools to promote quality is not in of its self destructive.
