RE: Self voter Return on Investment (svROI) notoriety flagging bot
I am SO conflicted! I strongly support your purpose, and comprehend the point behind automating it, and pooling SP.
I am highly reluctant, however, to abandon my principle of opposition to automated votes. I haven't purposely done so yet, and yet I am strongly attracted to do so here.
Gonna think more before I undertake an action that will invalidate that principle.
Out of curiosity, why decline payout? It seems counterproductive to me. The payout for the post could provide more SP to @sadkitten.
Thanks!
As you know I've never been against automated voting in general, no more than setting an alarm to wake me up in the morning. But I have been constantly questioning whether or not any particular use of bots for voting is positive or not.
In this case I'm happy that the bot is performing actions I agree with, so I am happy to support it. It's a personal call. I'm glad that you're in favor of at least the mission, if not the means. Perhaps you'll come around to that too.
Decline payout is generally the best thing to do on shared accounts I find, and it is culturally a gesture of goodwill, that it's not about the rewards. But I'm not herd set on that, it wasn't considered for more than a few seconds.
the SadKitten bot needs to be stopped it only helps the whales, everyone knows that, when any post has a upvote that shows a amount besides zero that the post will most like then be viewed by someone and maybe even upvoted, and everyone who does up vote get a slice of the pie, the down votes hurt not only the person who upvotes their on post but others who also get a part of it. and when the coins are devided up by steem the only one who get any are the select inner circle aka the whales, which is the only reason that the sadkitten bot is really their, why not flag all the other bots out there who always upvote the whales the ip and vpn always show that the bots are from select whales even now some whales are now changing often the ip and vpn to cover ther butt, steem was a good idea at first then the greed and bots and now even more sad kitten proves it greed and censorship to keep the peasent poor while the rich get richer, greed is greed and nothing more and it will be the death of steem as people flee and will not want steem
