RE: Transparency Bot is going online to help fight the rampant rise in bidbots and their long term devastating effect on our platform.
You're right, but I don't want to see a spammy comment on each my post, asking people to upvote it and delegate some SP.
I can agree that there is no need to ask for an upvote. If people like it, they will upvote without being asked. And @bycoleman, maybe you could add the delegation links to the introductory post you are referring to?
That's the question, why does the bot needs delegation if its purpose is only to show readers that author has used upvote bots?
I mean the bot creator just want to make some money like everyone on steemit. And I think his hypocrisy is much worse than bidbots usage...
If I understood correctly it needs a valuable upvote to counter the downvotes it will get, so it will not be made invisible by those downvotes
@bycoleman, can you confirm this?
Many people are downvoting the comments so they do not show.
If the bot or someone else does not upvote them, then they will be hidden and serve no purpose.
Soon there will be a consorted effort to out SP the bot so the comments are never shown. Several posters have already begun to power up (which is great), but that power will directed at the bot to try to shut it down.

The message was changed yesterday. No upvote or delegation is requested.
exactly, and also telling everyone if you used more than one bot to make money. the message is actually confrontational and not very nice. to boot they upvote themselves and ask for a deli. LOL yikes
The message no longer asks for upvotes or delegations. This was removed yesterday shortly after getting the bot in full gear. Your feedback and others were very helpful on this regard.
Thanks,
