RE: @brandonfrye Upvote Bot Blacklist
I think it is awesome that you are following up on who has used your bot. My advice though ... is to quietly blacklist. Let the individual know if they are blacklisted with your bot.. But calling public attention might not be wise. Could start a turf war. I used to be on a poetry website where these things would erupt ... takes a lot of energy and can make things toxic. But certainly hi-light those who have used your service and also creating great posts and building our community,
Great advice, thanks! I most likely won't be tagging them in the posts. But I do want their names available in case other bot owners want to add them to their own blacklist. This is what they do with buildawhale and it allows me to look up users and decide if they should be added to mine.
