RE: An Update On My Curation Habits and Why You're Better Off Buying Your Votes and Earning Peanuts
I can only speak for myself, but things were better for me, personally, in the beginning - before the vote bots. I’m much worse off now.
Though a lot of other things have changed, as well.
I’ve never cared about the trending page, so I’m not sure where this weird attack is coming from.
The only thing I hate about the trending page is the fact that I’m not there. But it is what it is.
Other than that, I just find it boring. It’s always boring. But I recognize that I’m the problem because I just care about things that are pretty niche. Other people may find it fun, I dunno.
I only care about a few things here:
What I’m making, first and foremost. Most of my frustrations are due to my lack of rewards.
The few people who legitimately read and care about my content.
As a continuation of the above, I care about what they’re making. And want them to do better for purely subjective reasons.
Nothing else I really care about.
The attack wasn't personal, it was a list of all the weird things people say to justify hating the bots.
The reason your rewards are down is you are always telling your followers to stop upvoting you. Do you ever wonder if that is part of it.
In my opinion we have 2 big problems... Distribution, like 12 people have enough SP to give a decent vote. Which is what created the demand for the bots and engagement. So, here we are engaging. :)
I said nothing about hanging the bots. I just said I don’t get their point.
The engagement gained from them is fake. Those people don’t read, they’re noobies thinking commenting on a high paying votes will make them money.
People can use them all they want, I just see it as a waste of money, which I don’t understand.
But then again so are Toyotas, in my opinion.
Yep. I misunderstood. See my other reply. :)
