RE: hilça

So I logged in to the postpromoter account to update the comment on this post after removing the vote, and then accidentally upvoted this comment with that account instead of my personal account...oops!

Well, what's done is done - @nonameslefttouse I hope you enjoy it and use it to keep up your work calling out shit posts :-)

hahaha, Epic!!!

The Shit Post of the Day Award comment defeats the Corn!

lol thanks for showing me this...awesome!

no worries!

Much deserved for nonames :D

LOL!! Fantastic!

😁 a great result!

Will you also be checking Pafulim's other posts or is that the responsibility of the community?

I also removed the vote from the only other post that had purchased a vote that was still within the payout period and he has been blacklisted from using the service in the future.

When I reported postpromoter sponsored shitposts to you way back when, you refused to unvote and we had a disagreement with you stating you would only unvote abuse such as plagiarism.

I believed such a stance from a bot owner but more importantly a witness was unacceptable so glad to see what appears to be a change.

It seemed lackadaisical and not promoting the kind of good work ethic we need so this platform will not stagnate. It seems you have changed your mind so I am grateful for that.

May I ask what changed your mind about this?

Don't question it, but be happy 8-).

While it is still up to the community to find and report which upvotes might be less than fortunate, at least some bidbot owners show a little accountability and responsibility by reacting and removing votes. Most don't.

While we still think bidbots and especially delegating to them are key factors in the degeneration of Steemit, at least we can now say that some are more equal than others.

This is also why we think it is a good idea to flag the comments left by bidbots that take no responsibility at all, after all, accountability is a many-splendoured thing and rejecting all responsibility for voting behaviour should at least reflect in the reputation number of said bidbots.

Why should they be beyond the community's scrutiny?

Yeah I hit up @yabapmatt and he has changed his policy, thankfully. I had attributed his former failure due to greed but maybe I misjudged; however, I can't really overlook the apparent convenience of it as a possible PR move but I am not able to see into the man's heart so just gotta let it be.

I had plans to design a bot to target irresponsible botting when I have time. Basically, if the bot owner fails to unvote blatantly low effort posts multiple times, reasonable attempt was made to address, and it continues, the bot will be designed to flag any bot comments with payout to below dust threshold as a penalty for facilitating and rewarding abuse.

What do you think?

Why limit yourself to bot comments with payout? It is well worth the effort to flag them just to get their rep down.

Here's what we think:

@church-of-piglet

I wholeheartedly agree. If I had the SP to support it, I would do just that.

Targeting the payout comments would by my approach to economize very limited SP.

I'm not sure all that many get upvotes; that could be a problem. Maybe a minimum downvote in all cases, and a bigger one for the ones with pending rewards? After all, it is the thought that counts 8-).

Haha! Oh man that's awesome!

Ah hmm , hmm @yabapmatt
Very Generous of you. Quarantine

Oh, this is epic. I'm sorry Matt, I couldn't help but laugh and comment at this one. Nonames does have a way of expressing himself.
