This is the true face of trending page. This how steemit end up....

That picture is gonna seen by new users out there that will join steemit believe the exact same will happen to them. What is going to actual happen is either to quit steemit after 2-3 days or become like this person. After a sort while mostly nobody will use this platform.

The fun thing is that steemit has tremendous potentials to become the beginning of everything. Just cast aside those people. In this effort steemit.inc should play it's role.

I wouldn't mind this photo with all this bots being on PROMOTED page instead of trending. ( think about what i just wrote ;))

    You will not believe it, but I agree with you. The use of bots does not develop the platform. But without the use of bots, promotion is impossible. Or it is extremely difficult.

      Before i say anything else i want you to know that i understand perfectly what you are saying but at the end of the day you have to give a little more though to it. I have never used bot services to promote my content because:

      1. i wanted to attract people that actually like my content.
      2. I wanted to have people that i could interact with them and will be loyal followers from now on
      3. I didn't want to bury other's people content which i know some have more quality posts than me
      4. I actually wanted to earn something. Using bots is a waste of money cause you actually don't earn back nothing the way the prices are. You only get reputation and if people start flagging you, you gonna lose it all.
      5. As i said in the first comment, it will mislead new people that would like to join the platform
      6. you make enemies by using the bots like that

      It's not entirely your fault though, steemit.inc should have done something about bots, promoted channel and in general the interface

      At the end of the day it only brings harm to the platform and you
