Congrats for this initiative! I was reviewing my notes for my "Steemit - The First 7 Days Experience" post and one of the points was that there is too much "automation" available and the system looks like it can be "played". By "automation" I mean quite a number of bots (some of them easily recognizable by their usernames: username1, username2, username3, etc). As an author, I'm not very happy when I see that I'm voted by bots. :)

My take is that, at this moment, without a very powerful AI backend, it would be difficult for Steemit to give a real opportunity to valuable content creators, genuinely interested in the platform. The noise to signal ratio is a bit balanced towards the "noise" part. Projects like Steemit Guild are signaling that there is hope, and there is some concern related to the quality of the content in the network.

Wishing you all the luck with that!
