I have been in steemit for a short time and this was my first experience with the bots, I comment ...
one day I wake up, I enter the PC, I open Steemit, I enter a publication and suddenly among the comments:

Such account to voted "X"% for your publication continues to use our services, etc ...
And I said "WHAT!" Yes, I found out at the time that you can pay to vote your publications and win a little with that vote. In fact, I started using it and more I turned around the problem of quality because just doing anything I could think of, having money alone, who has to buy a book ?: A little profit and making the publication for remuneration.

I am not someone to say that it is okay or not within Steemit, so I can draw my conclusion because I can not change and eliminate the bots and less use: "I will use the bots to leverage me but in content of value from now on". With the above idea I can keep my conscience clear and use my tool in this way that many can use only for the sake of "Making Profits".

I agree with your idea and it seems excellent to give it a similar use to what you are giving it.

I would like you to take me into account for your contest! I'm a musician and I try hard to study and learn what I'm going to record for Steemit but since I do not have good recording equipment, people do not like my videos very much. I'm still fighting to be seen! Thank you for the opportunity @silentscreamer !
