RE: A new voter bot - newer, smarter, freer

in #bots8 years ago

I agree. But one has to be practical, it's fine to talk about the big ideas of the platform, but when there are other users empowered by something only selectively available, I feel like that is something to be opposed. And because it is in my power to do something about it, I did. Tokens can also be earned by witnessing and mining. I see this auto-curation as a kind of cultural mining.

I see it as contributing to the ongoing working out of finding ways around the problems which bot raise. I'd like to see where we go with this, but in the meantime, here's a bot 😊 One which has what I feel are good principles at heart, genuinely.

Sort:  

Well, I stand by my assertion that it brings the site down overall. But I can appreciate your logic. (No pun intended)

I disagree. It's like raising the level to competativeness for everyone, too a baseline that allows people to benefit more than they do now where power is concentrated in a few hands.

But in earnest I'd be interested to discuss ways around the problem of bots too. I believe in this approach for the moment but I'm not beyond convincing .

Thanks for the conversation, hope to continue it. 🙃
