Hey @alimtl2011 i think this is an amazing work, but is so much Problems with all that BOTS... i dont want to say they all BOTS but there loads of them, and everything what happens is this bots are posting and posting often trash and really good Stories from unknown writers get unseen, because you have only a few seconds to get read. Yeah maybe you catch one of that DAILY Followers but thats most times only a one time reader. To have 250 Followers dont show there 100 readers of your Stories, theres only one or two because you have one of that automatic answers in your post. And what happens.. yeah you loose your very small amount which you generate trough your earlier posts. So maybe its an easy way to reach any BOTS out there because you paid them but is this really the way you have to go?? maybe im too small to see it , yes i WANT MORE readers , every day i sit there and typ in my Stories and often i see theres NO view on it but i have in my opinion a lot of followers... So what went wrong if your followers dont really take a look what you doin, i tell you this happens t because there loads of BOT who post -resteem every second million of posts that maybe you wont want to see and this one which one you followed because he had good stories gets lost in all that Automatics...
only my two cents
Hey. I see where your comin from. I understand it cost money. It was a test for us to see what were dealing with. Trying different thing to see if it helps. Peole were telling me to gain visibility it helps to have comments and alot of upvotes.
yeah its a CHANCE to.. not a it will be ;) thats the problem , maybe its only me who think i want to get paid for that what im doin not for paing others... or maybe i didnt undderstand this STEEMIT :D Take a look outside theres loads of dudes all with same story but get paid by bots and the bot of the bot but they didnt really make CONTENT , then out there are really good ones dont use only copy and paste and then push some bots on it... But maybe i didnt understand this ... smile maybe it has to get back to really workers and not to fishers ... only my two cents ;)
Someones gotta do the dirty work n test things. Im tryin to help the community here and if you want to make money then you can still use some of them like @randowhale which gives you more on the upvote then what you pay. Its a profit + your adding transactions to steemit. I pay out when i do contest to gain followers. Paying a bot is way cheaper. But again it's just to have to do less research for new people trying new things. I dont normally use all these bots. But maybe it will be useful to someone. Or maybe it will give someone an idea. I was hoping to find all the bots where the cost is cheaper then what you get. ONLY MY 2 CENTS LOL
Hey it wasnt my opinion to say its a wrong way you goes ;) smile i think its that way which one is the way the most dudes here goes, but at the other side i see , there loads of Dudes posting same adresses and same names and they get like you nice votes replys and resteems... smile.. But and yeah theres a BUT... there loads of others doin also good content and it didnt get seen in middle of all that bots, thats the only thing i tried to talking about. ;)
but you can be sure you got now one more follower who really read what you doin there ;)
Thank you for bringing this to light @hoschitrooper!!! This is a really big issue. I work really hard on the things I write, for people to actually READ!!!! BOTS don't really benefit the universe one iota imho.....But thanks @alimtl2011 for putting this together, you did work hard to write a genuine article and that counts as all good in my book ;)
Yeah but where is a chance to change it again..?? im still waiting for it :D
I'm still waiting for it too (sigh)
As long its easier to get to cash is to use bots, so this ones who really use that Steem Plattform as a blog/information/discussion area , are these ones who looks at last...
Sad, but true :( I go to great lengths to share pics and write stories about my experiences, and they disappear in the feed faster than I can swallow my coffee...haha This is why I've taken to just curating and chatting. Less work and more fun lately. The benefits of making friends are good too!
this is why im being here... to write around my experience to write Stories, and maybe some who read em and then maybe gimme a feedback.. and when i catch some Dudes or Dudettes to talk with em around the world so i think i catched one of that amazing chances Steemit gives us... But maybe i will later make an own story for it... maybe we see us there later ;)
I followed you so will be watching your blog :) Have a very nice weekend!
So some days are gone, and there still ONE MORE QUESTION i still have... With all that BOTs with that UPVOTES... yeah its a machine, but where it got all this Accounts ,and i cant believe thats all real USERS, thats all FAKE Accounts who started to push up the crowd... is that the real way it has to go???
i cant believe its in that mind of that Community to get thousands of fake accounts or...
Please tell it isnt right, but think you cant do
I do think there needs to be more of a limit on BOTS on here. Or, some kind of reviewing system to see if they are really beneficial to the platform as a whole???
But you catched me so you have now anfollower and maybe READER more in your list ;)
Thanks!!!! Nice to meet you ;)
