Wow, that was the longest comment I read today. Thank you for a very full response, it's that sort of interaction that makes Steemit great.
More on the upvote bots...sorry but I noticed 2 more new ones today, is this getting out of hand maybe yes, is it opportunistic maybe yes, is it good value maybe sometimes but buyers should definitely beware and remember the rewards are shared with the post curators too.
If using an upvote bot be prepared for a possible negative ROI (return on investment) is all I can say.
I gave you an upvote for your comment, sorry it is so small, but I'm only small too.
Two new ones? Wow, I only know of two... honestly, it is a waste of money with Steem prices being so low. I just did a randowhale upvote on my contest post, to increase the price pool a little bit, but I get nowhere near the 2 SBD back that I spend on the upvote.
Thank you very much for your upvote, I think good conversations are worth a lot more here, but any upvote is ofcourse also welcome. I am giving you one back :-)
