RE: TEAM 6: Curation Guideline for September 2024
Why is it that those with bid-bots already received their support?
Will you not upvote those who delegate to a community and receive upvotes in return either since this is exactly the same method used.
When a person delegates their SP to a bot, they are thus supporting themselves. It does not interact with the community or other authors. Also, it has a guaranteed reward, which does not encourage writing a good post. So, such a person cares only about earnings, not interaction. She clearly understands that she is delegating a certain amount of SP and will receive a certain amount of rewards for it. This is purely an investment activity that has nothing to do with creativity. Supporting yourself is like masturbating.
Communities usually set a certain minimum that must be delegated. For example, I delegated 10,000 SP to the Ukrainian community so that it could develop. This allows me to get 100% upvote. But I don't need to delegate all my 63000. I use the rest for manual curation. I think the difference is noticeable. In addition, community contributors are usually very active with other contributors and support many posts.
Steem is a great place where everyone can do as they like. If you want to vote for posts that are voted by bid bots, you are free to do so. I don't want to do that, and I also have the right to do so, even if the curator status is taken away from me.
