You see that's how I use them is for promo purposes or even to reward someone for a good post. And I know there are a lot of spammers with multiple accounts that abuse the system, but there are just as many-if not more-great young 'plankton & minnows' that could really benefit from affordable hits by the 'bigger' bots. There's no way @curie catches them all, or any other curation groups. I know I go to some friends' blog pages and am like, how in the world did I miss that? And yes, shitty posts making 300+ is despicable.
