RE: The Daily Coverup - 4/13/18 - Transparency Under Attack.

in #steemit7 years ago

I've got to say, the overwhelming majority of steemit posts @transparencybot comments on are, well, garbage, and I've looked at quite a few of them. Transparency bot is at least trying to do something. Also, flagged the shit out of your other comments on here because they annoyed me, but upvoted this one, because you actually engaged in a meaningful way.

Sort:  

I usually always engage in a meaningful way. It’s not what the bot is doing.. it is how. Yes many things are trash. The bot does not distinguish... also who is to decide what is value.. changes from person to person. Unsolicited stuff like this should stay off people’s comments. As I said before this bot never touched a post of mine. If the system allows for this then that’s the system. Until real solutions are in place who really can say right or wrong? As always he who has most money wins.

You know how we get real solutions? By trying out various new ones. Whether @transparencybot succeeds or fails- and I'm not particularly sanguine about its chances- it's at least an attempt at correcting the problem. Hell of a lot better than doing nothing.

The bot does not distinguish between trash or not. That is correct. The bot doesn't make a decision on quality of content. The bot makes a tally of money injected into a post to get it in-front of peoples eyes and then posts the results.

Sure the value of material posted varies from person to person but value of SBD and STEEM is actually the same to all. I believe this bot is trying to combat the statement "As always he who has most money wins." not lie in bed with it.

Also you said you flagged the rest of my posts because they annoyed you. Maybe other people would be entertained. See you are policing what others do... did you have to flag... nope you could of just not read it. See somehow what you think seems to matter more. Why is that? Did my pictures offend you? Why are you the one to decide?

I mainly did it because you not only posted them all, but self-upvoted them all. I probably would have ignored them if you hadn't done that- it leads me to believe that you're more of a spammer than anything.

I did it because the bot upvotes itself to top of people’s page. Same thing

Except... it doesn't upvote itself to the top of people's pages? So really not the same thing at all.

@bycoleman has never upvoted???

Don't really care about alt accounts upvoting in the context of a creator upvoting their publicly acknowledged bot creation, that's pretty reasonable. It's an account upvoting all their comments (not posts, no problem with self-upvoting posts so long as you're not posting four times a day or something) that bugs me. Even moreso when they're all replies to the same post. What you're doing is worse.

I reviewed some of your stuff... what kinda bots do you use? Is there a right one?

.32 get a life! Wasn’t turning a profit just pushing to top

Things that bug you... ?! Who the fuck are you? Nobody cares what bugs you. I’m for a free open site.... not this bs I feel this is the way it should be shit. I just want people to leave other people alone. Don’t like it... stay away. Don’t like Mexican... eat Italian! Don’t like girls... sick dicks... I don’t care. You know what bugs me..... who the fuck cares!!!
