Like you rightly said, the war against bidbots is like a lost war. Personally, I don't support it one bid and I've made a few comments round the community which showed my disapproval but what can we do, the chain was built to allow it, therefore, people will keep building them. I only hope the bot owners will get to read this and implement a couple of things here to help clean the community else it will be a case of flower and bee which @tarazkp wrote about last night.
