RE: Introducing the Steem Defender Bot. Designed to Protect Steem From Economic Collapse and Support Minnow Growth (Article)

Its not that bots are bad @preparedwombat. So long as they are used correctly. For instance, were paying a small fee to have our post boosted to trending, so that more people can become aware of us and the solutions we are bringing to the Steem Community.

If people do not like what we have to offer, they can simply flag us and shoot us down. Which has happened a few times.... we've lost over 100 dollars to downvotes since joining.

Mercenary up-vote bots when used in a good way help good content to rise and be seen. Bad content won't stay on top for long without being flagged down.

Does this make sense to you?

Sort:  

But pretty much everybody thinks that their content getting flagged is inherently abuse.

They all have what they think are good reasons why their stuff should not be flagged but it's okay for them to flag, as with your swarm of bots.

Indeed. It is a complicated issue @preparedwombat. All we can do is the best we can do! Here's to a supportive and enabling steem culture.
