Hi @deliberator,
i am also confused with this bid bot issues. When some says bid bot help to increase steemit economy then i believe that, next when some others says not to use bid bots then i also believe that. So its not possible for me to obey both. Final result is surround with confusion. So what to do!

Note: You can delegate me your power before leave , it will help me to buy a cup of tea everyday :-|
