I am not saying she doesn't contribute - she certainly does.
However -you guys are now attacking me for self upvoting 30% of the time.. lets do some math - 10 full power votes a day, worth about $0.50 each = $5.00 , 30% = thats less then $1.66 a day.
But actually - that is incorrect, because only recently has my vote has gone up so much with the rise of Steem, and I also have powered up more since the New Year- lets look at the past 3 weeks - self votes 13.9% ......I have posted every single day or multiple times per day making videos, so this is, as I thought, 1 single vote worth 50 cents, on a video that sometimes takes me 5-6 hours to produce, sometimes much more. - Wow what a criminal I am!
Way to distract from the fact that over $2500 dollars was spent to promote this post. Which will gain much more money than that in return. Which, of course, is draining the reward pool. Why not power up that 500 steem that was spent on the post and use it to further upvote minnows if its all about charity? This is why making bots normal really hurts steem. She has thousands of followers that look up to her and say - well the way to do good on steem is pay bots!
You guys keep saying that using bots is not forbidden, please read the terms of service until you understand it.
"17.1.3. Use any robot, spider, crawler, scraper or other automated means or interface not provided by us to access our Services or to extract data; "
This platform is not about who can pay the most for bots, but you all acting this way is turning it into that. All I ask is for the people here to think about tomorrow, today, as the title of this post suggests. If everyone here normalizes this type of abuse of the system, do you really think steem has any chance of becoming the next Facebook? We barely made it to half a million users and already this type of stuff is happening... Soon people will be paying $50,000 to promote a selfie. It's not a joke!
you are right about it! work smart be creative.
so you are saying here, your posts didnt earn much tho you put so much effort on it, maybe you should try another post not everybody likes videos lols
The platform is not perfect, we all know that. But don't blame her for using what's in the platform.
99.9% of her upvotes goes to minnows and helping them online and offline.
"99.9% of her upvotes goes to minnows and helping them online and offline."
The implication being that it's better to vote for people who have no investment in Steem?
Are you a Marxist?
@sunnylife yes maybe you are right
@pure-pinay I apologize for anything implied, I didn't mean to say you are a bad person or bad for steem or anything.
I'm sorry, actually I think you are a great steemian and I often see your interactions on introduceyourself, and they are all quite genuine.
I hope that you can see my deep concern for this platform and I am getting worked up about how crazy the bots are getting.
I saw this post with the crazy rewards and @grumpycats recent stance and wanted to jump in with all my passion, but I suppose there are better ways of doing it then this.
I know that the botting won't stop anytime soon but I hope all readers can genuinely ask themselves - is the action I am taking everyday good for the platform and community.
Steem on @purepinay !
