I want to thank each of you who commented on my post it means a lot to me. I am lost as to how of the bots and anonymous accounts work and just felt like getting something in writing.
I have and do use a bot at the expense of 3 dollars usually. I also use the resteem bot and the gina bot and steemvote bot.
When I joined I was opposed to any and all bots, guess I have softened my view. What an adventure Steemit has been for me with growth in not only online but in my life.
The last time I used a bid bot a guy commented I that I should use it within 30 mins to get 100% curation. My goal is simply to be noticed and well I don't use it right away I wait. Guess I have a lot to learn.
