Stop With the Upvote Bots
Hello Steemians, Today I come to show my dislike for voting bots.
I joined Steemit in June of 2017 but started taking it more seriously from January 2018 and it's been a fantastic journey,
I have learned a lot from all of you but also from my mistakes that are not few. :)
What attracted me most from the beginning in it, is that Steemit is very different from other social networks, because here they value the work of each one of us and value the original works without plagiarism and this is where Steemit differs from the rest of the competition.
But there is something that makes me sad, which is this:
All of us whenever we put something in the steemit, like a text, a photography or anything else, we always hope that it is listed on the trending page and to achieve this we have to wait for other people to like our post , right?
Lately I've noticed that many of the post listed on the trending page, with very high values of SBD, are due to upvote bots, these people buy upvotes to have more upvotes in their posts, and so they go up a lot in the list, and of course being on top, more people upvoting, they get a higher reward.
Me like so many of you when we see some very upvoted post, we also tend to take a look because to be trend has to be good, but this is not what happens, as these Steemians who pay for upvotes their post sometimes it does not have any kind of quality which makes me very sad and upset.
So I think Steemit should regulate this better, because I think it is disloyal to all those who create quality content, which due to this situation can never get noticed in the crowd.
Moreover, this type of service is nothing more than a way to make money from the one who creates them.
So I'm in favor of ending with this upvote bots here on Steemit!
I apologize for my words, but this is what I feel!
Thank you
Greetings.
