RE: Bid-Bots are Nonsensical and Exploitative

in #bots7 years ago

unfortunately upvotes are a commodity. they have the utility of buying time on the trending tab. this is why i am also creating a content filter that can hopefully mitigate the the weaknesses of the current trending/hot/promoted tabs.

in conjunction with a decentralized vote buying service hopefully I can convince devs to work on more productive endeavors.

Sort:  

Yeah, I know that is what they've become.

I've been thinking the old adage is applicable.

If you can't beat em, join em.

Perhaps, I was entetaining the notion of building a fair vote selling queue bot. Another idea I was thinking of was a bot that gives a bonus vote value on posts with decline rewards.

I already have my hands full with other projects atm so maybe one day. I like your idea and looking forward to what you put together.
