RE: Steem Experience Hangout: Let's Talk about Paid Voting Bots...
Nobody looks at the promoted tab, what's wrong in advertising our own content?

Exactly, because we don't want to see paid ads.
Believe me, if there was an option that I could use to filter all paid content out, I would click that checkbox in a second.
Nothing wrong with advertising but paying for votes is another matter entirely. Not the same thing.
In that case, I believe you always ignore hot, trending and promoted tabs and just read posts on your feed?
Not really. But I do ambition to create a front end that will do as I have said. It's on my todo list. People just might go for that sort of thing. I know I would.
Total agreement! Bots will kill steemit! I am here for 14 days... there is no way that the valuable (at least in my eyes) content I want to share with the steem community will get more than 10 views as it will just disappear in nirvana covered by voting bots, voting pools and funny cat clips... I am starting to believe that even FB would be better in delivering my words to the world...
The initial free market quality system based on monetization is great but its put upside down by abuse of bots...
Welc9me to our world
Thx for your reply.. I hope that at the end the big whales and developers will have the same view and change either the system or their behavior for the better win win situation style
Don't expect the behavior to change. It's a capitalistic system. My best advice to you is to engage with the community, and if you get lucky you will get some decent upvotes. Use your earnings to pay for bots with a decent return. This will start to build you up slowly. By commenting on the trending posts, other users will see you and visit your page, as I am about to do right now..It's all relative. There is money to be made, even if its not significant, and of course the price of steem could always skyrocket, and then your minimal earnings may become more substantial. Best wishes to you.
