It's my answer. If you want my vote, don't use bots. Simple. Earn your way to get support, not buy it. It can happen. if people care to make it happen, just like anything in life. I don't hit the trending page. So what? I'm not a whale. Whales have at least 250,000SP inmy book, and that's a small whale. A real whale has over 1 million SP.
I'm not punishing good content providers. I'm not flagging them. I'm only not supporting them, as I don't have to support anyone I don't want to. I'm not taking away their rewards like a flag.
And you have the right to do that. My comment was my opinion on the subject matter that you posted about.
My view is Good content is still good content regardless of a bidbot vote or not. I shouldn't of used the word Punish which is why I had it in quotation marks. Let me rephrase ... I don't agree with not rewarding good content providers because they decide to use bid bots to reach a larger audience.
Trying to stop EVERYONE from commenting and upvoting bid bot users is a fight that can't be won. It would be next to impossible to get EVERYONE to stop. It just won't happen.
