RE: How do you feel about Steem drying up as everyone powers up?
Steemitcleaners acused me of "tag abuse" and "spam" when I was still VERY new, and it just crushed me. I did not know they were running BOTS who had decided I was raping the reward pool with my post that got less than a quarter... The HUMAN interactions have been almost entirely wonderful, save one self righteous vegan but that is just life... lol! The bots nearly ran me off. I mute every account that I find out runs bots now. I am here for the people... like YOU!
Nice! The people are great. I don't have much experience with bots. I was advised to not post more than 4 times in a day. Makes sense. Since we have started seeing our world as content there are so many ideas! If I post more than once in a day I try to use different tags. I could especially make more videos haha.
OK, you are making an assumption that I did something bad, I did not. I was NOT spamming, I was NOT abusing tags. If a human had read the post, it would have never happened. A bot followed an algorithm and decided to make a nasty comment to me. A bot with a rep score of over 70, I thought my account was DONE.
Whoa....no assumptions😀at all....and I completely agree. A bot like that could have ended roughly.
Yeah, I am still touchy... Bots with vote power and that kind of ability to ruin accounts are the boogey man here. Everyone fears the "angry whale" but then acts like there is nothing we can do except tiptoe around and try to avoid their wrath. Not really the epitome of "free speech" that way...
