RE: My first rant - WTF did you think you were getting into when you joined?
Appreciate you stopping at my blog! I think I had read a post or two of yours now and will go take a look again now.
I think that this platform and concept is so new that things should be spoken about and thought about etc but I think my rant post was mostly aimed at some newer type of accounts that don't often look into things but then complain with no actionable solution.
No problems at all @steemitadventure! Thank you for stopping by and reading our posts a few times. It really depends if you are interested in our content or not. Not everybody is into travel, nature and food-related post.
As we said in our comment above that we would try out a vote bot. We did it with our post from yesterday and yes, we can say it's very appealing. Yet, it's not the true spirit of getting a deserved portion of the reward pool. We're tossed up about doing it again. Maybe keep it to one blog a week and at the minimum bid. This way, you reward yourself for all those (we do 6 original posts a week) posts, hours and creativity spent with a small token of gratitude to ourselves. The other posts that we do during the week can get a couple of cents and maybe even $1-2, but to have one that reaches almost $5-10 is satisfying. Still....we aren't sure yet if we will do this as it still feels 'wrong'. But are there any clear ethical behaviors and rules? We're relatively new (almost two months' old) and figuring out what is the best approach. It will be interesting to hear your take on voting bots.
