please stop the comment bots
Hey there, I got a weird feeling about most replies I´m reading below new posts. Things like "Keep up the good work!" and "I votet you up, please give me a vote back". Come on, are you kidding me? Start publishing pithy content instead of fishing for votes!
Maybe I´m wrong and there are no actual human users sitting in front of their screens hitting "strg+c" and "strg+v" as much as possible, but even if that is the case, then there must be some uncharming bots that need to be stopped. Let´s bring an end to this spamming. Downvote those comments!
Sure this plattform is about money, but it´s also about great and interesting content, isn´t it?
AND HEY - YOU PEOPLE GAVE ME THE WORST EARWORM EVER:
"It´s not about the money money money we don´t need your money money money, we just wanna make the world dance... (black eyed peas)
IT NEEDS TO BE DEFEATED:
Stop the bot, stop the bot
Stop the bot, stop the bot
Can stop the bot, we can stop the bot
(hardly Apollo440)
I hope you guys are with me!
I think there is even bigger problem: bots that upvote certain posts that contain some words (or have other conditions) to get as much curator rewards as possible. While comment bots can be somehow stopped with other bots that will downvote them, I don't think that stopping voting bots is possible. They vote in like few seconds and it's impossible to read and understand whole article in that time to be able to compete with them.
Yes I get like 5 of them on one post like oomfg
under this one there are two for now. maybe the idea starts working ;)
You may have started a rebellion! Let us pray for our freedom from the bots! FREEDOM NOW!!!

Bots are okay. They just need to be silent and do their thing without bothering people.
