Does @brofi just blindly upvote anyone holding bro tokens?
Just noticed some weird votes so had to ask, doesn't really sound like appropriate curation if you aren't even whitelisting authors that receive the votes.
I was in a curation event the other day. I used brofi to share the love. Could have been that. Most (if not all) of the large holders are well established authors in the BRO circle.
That being said I've told them multiple times that we won't be voting shit, so if you abuse the service then you'll get taken off the vote. We do have a blacklist, yup, with one or two people on it already :)
Brofi upvotes for holding BRO is complimentary, so it's not an actual set in stone service. It's like something we do to help our community since we're not a tribe.
Okay yeah just wanted to make sure it wasn't completely void from observation and thus not allowing anyone to "buy into the token" to earn post rewards for farmy garbage. Thanks for the answer!
Hehe, no worries. That was actually my initial thought when I came up with the idea. How to stop just anyone buying in and outputting trash lol.
I think the real value comes from the token itself though. Way more benefits to just holding BRO, than using it as an upvote token. That is so tired and done a billion times it's not even funny anymore - but it's a nice complimentary service if you're a regular writer! (and don't spam)
Yeah same goes for @poshtoken, one of the only autovoters in any of my projects where we look for authors who have earned tokens from sharing onto twitter and also write decent posts. Being able to receive votes just for buying POSH would mean it would get too close to a bid bot so it's good we don't see those around anymore.
I actually need to buy up a load of POSH now that you mention it, since we are trying to integrate it with our new site - which heads up we're still about 2-3 months off!
Check out some of BT's latest comments I upvoted. :p

Looking forward to it! Market is a bit thin on the sell side though, maybe delegating to poshtoken can give you a better chance at earning some.
