RE: Steem Survey: Should The Posts That Have Used Bidbots Be Moved to the Promoted Tab?

in #bidbot6 years ago

No.

It would be nice but it will not work to fix the trending tab at all. I do not think there is a fix possible. If bidbots are removed from the trending, then people are going to complain that it is only vote trail post that make it on trending, Some trails are very long, does that make a post that gets regular vote trail votes that much better than one that does not? They can and do play favorites, many of them are automated and the people that belong to them have no clue at all what they are voting on.

Can we exclude vote trails from the trending? Do they have any higher quality than non vote trails? The reason for banning vote bots is why? Because they don't reflect quality content? It's a slippery slope when we start "banning" for any reason. What would be banned next? Meme's again? YT videos, even though they all have share buttons? Wiki page references?
