RE: There is a disturbance in the steemit platform

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

I haven't been on Steemit very long and I am learning something new every time I login. It's a great platform, but is going through some pretty big growing pains. Something I have noticed is all the bots. They seem to operate in a grey area and it seems pretty tough to trust all of them. Which bots are trustworthy? Does using an upvote or promtion bot work or is it better to get votes more organically?

Sort:  

I suggest not using them unless you understand how it all works, and though the auto-exchanges sound good, don't do it, it is how my voting power got drained. It takes days to recover to 100% voting power

Ya I am still trying to figure all of that out too. I keep draining all of my voting power all of the time. I tried to convert the few SBD I had from my intro post and I'm waiting for it to be converted to Steem so I can power up. I didn't realize how that all worked. have also gotten the bandwidth limit error a few times and I'm not really sure how that works either. So much to learn!

Try logging out and rebooting your browser when you get that error, if that doesn't work reboot your computer then try again, it should work after doing one of those two things, or at least it has for me

I agree, Its better to figure it out before allowing a bot to vote for you
@tecnosgirl thank you for the gift.

I drained my voting power and this posted deserved more than the penny my vote gave it. Keep up good quality posts like this.

The bots as far as I can tell are not created by the developers, and I do not trust any of them for decision making. I would rather make my choices myself. could these bots be making up-votes in your name on content you do not agree with? makes you think!
