RE: With Great Power, Comes Great Responsability
At long last, some one is going to look at the content as and when they vote. If everybody did this "Oh what a wonderful world we live in". If things were read before a vote was cast it would show th true worth of the post, not how many bots had the authors name programed i to their system.
I'm with you! There's always going to be bots and voting trails (which I don't have an issue with,) but this is at least something within my control that I can do. I've been guilty myself of voting from just the thumbnail/title listing. But having the ability to actually distribute some rewards made me view this differently and hence my planned change. (Which took effect when that post went up.)
Even though it won't stop bots...I really wish they'd remove the upvote button from the listing screen. At least make humans open the post and scroll down to do so.
Wouldn't that stop the bots as well?. If the post had to be opened to vote, could a bot find the right p.ace at the end of the post so it could vote, even more so after a few replys. There you go, the start of hard fork 18.
Unfortunately no. The bots basically send the vote command directly to the blockchain, so how the site we look at doesn't matter in that respect. It'd just effect human readers.
So much for that idea.
No worries. That's pretty much the same way I found out. I'm still constantly learning about this place and now I've been wrapping my head around the Viva project too.
At some point my head with just explode. :P
I won the whale vote contest - watch out! Good things coming!
