RE: My Take On Vote Buying? I'm Out! ⛔ Chances & Challenges Of Open Economic Systems

in #votebuying7 years ago (edited)

Hey @pennsif! Thanks for your kind words.
It's important to differentiate between bots and vote trading. Using a bot that simply allocates votes according to my own algo and in order to save time for instance is not a problem to me.

What I wanted to bring out is the fact that some services on steemit buy and sell votes in a dimension that is considerably disequilibrate the eco-system of steemit. A bot as an "extended arm" doesn't have such impact.

Thanks for stopping by!

Sorry yes, that was laziness in my terminology. I used the term bots too loosely.

I understand and agree with your differentiation between the autovote type service and the vote-trading for profit type service. The first can be a useful tool. The second has the undesirable consequences for steemit.

No problem at all! That's why we're talking :-)
