Hallelujah! I love this. I've started using bots on a small scale earlier this year. I stopped mainly because of the false sense of success. I even wonder if it is a vote loser sometimes. Now I've stopped and I've noticed that I'm getting more consistent genuine votes. Slow but steady. Therefore, I won't be using bots again.
I wonder what your thoughts are on resteem services.
I've never really used resteem services, but I just don't think they're worth it. I mean some of them have only existed for a couple of months and have 10 000 followers already... Something ain't right with that.
Plus they consistently spam people with their messages.
I did the one where you changed https:// to re. That was free, but it doesn't work anymore. So, I'm leaving that also. I'm not going to use services I have to pay for.
It is also good to remember why I liked using Steemit in the first place.
