RE: Is STEEM not Steemit or is STEEM Steemit? Please make up your mind.
How much of that system gaming you are referring to are organic votes, and how much are bots? I'm guessing the majority is facilitated by bid bots.
I don't know. Gaming is a pretty broad category of actions. A lot of it probably involves automation, which would mean bots. But you and I could be 'gaming' things right now, if we wanted to. Just on a smaller scale. Maybe we already are? Maybe this isn't a genuine discussion, and we're just shitposting comments for the other to upvote? ;)
I guess there are degrees to it. Some people are spamming (and/or gaming and/or botting) their way to success, without providing much of real value to the rest of us.
