RE: Everyone being able to create bots will ruin Steemit.

in #steemit9 years ago

If it's as simple as deleting the accounts then I would certainly like to start seeing that happening. I'm not sure how this BOT issue will be addressed but I'm certainly anxiously awaiting.

Great write.

"this is not the bot you are looking for"

Yeah me too. I hope there is a very feasible way to stop/mange this. And don't worry, you're cleared. You're officially not a bot haha ;)

From what I've gathered from @ungratefulchump because the blockchain is decentralized there isn't much that can be done about a bot accessing Steemit on the chain. Even though we see the bot, we know it exists, we can't just remove it so easily from the website part of Steemit, because it's accessing it from the blockchain and verified by a miner, it's basically here forever.

Unless I missunderstood.

No you understood very well. That is why I'm hoping just like Steemit was able to leverage "updates" on the blockchain, Steemit is able to leverage weakening the power of these bots.
