RE: WHALE DOWNVOTING AS A MEANS TO EMPOWER MINNOWS AND DOLPHINS – IS IT WORKING?

in #steemit7 years ago

A downvote was applied to partially counter earlier whale votes as an experiment to reduce whale domination of voting influence. Not intended to express an opinion on the content nor result in a net reduction of rewards or reputation (automated notice)

Sort:  

You're replying to an unconscious bot? And thanking it? Do you also shake your fist at the sky if it rains when you are at the beach?

I read most of the replies to the bot comments. If I miss some, it is by mistake.

This is smooth's account, he is using it personally, it isn't just "an unconscious bot".

I think that makes it worse.

I mean he gets notifications about the answers. I don't know if he cares for the answers for the bot's comments, though.

How does that make it worse?

Though the message may have been automated, @smooth is not. Some downvotes and comments may be programmed, but if @smooth is supposed to see that message, it'll happen. I do think that it is beneficial to have the automated comment come along with the vote, and for that much I can be thankful. I also think that @smooth is attempting to improve things (though obviously not everyone will agree with the methods) and I appreciate people exercising their creative efforts in attempts to improve steemit.

I try how I am able with far less Steem Power and @smooth is trying another way, if that makes sense.

No, I disagree with that! I believe @ned/dan will see this
