RE: Two Ways to Earn With SmartSteem: Do the Smart Thing!

in #steem7 years ago

Hey lovely lady. Sadly the fact that you didn't even warrant a response solidifies my initial feeling about this ad trending on steemit- not really for the people. A few people at the top maybe. I would like to hear some examples of people who have done well using bots as opposed to the way people like you and I built our accounts. Hard work, consistency, and persistence lol.

Sort:  

I have been exploring this area, since bots are new I am withholding my opinion. I do see a two tier system developing on Steemit, large accounts and small accounts. This troubles me and I want no part in a system that does not have a large population of middle sized accounts.

I've seen the exact same trend, and I agree it's very troubling. And seems directly related to these bots. I read a comment by someone who has been here for months using these bots, he said he's not even breaking even. I checked out his account, and there are posts bringing in fifteen to forty dollars, which tells me that he's spending more than that to get them there. This does not seem particularly beneficial to anyone.
I'm glad I ran into you though, I've always loved your blog.

To be honest - middle tier accounts are developing through services like these. Because they allow everyone to push the boundaries of what is possible, without completely relying on getting noticed by curators.

What do you mean with didn't even warrant a response?

I see that you've responded now, I'm glad.
I have nothing against you personally, I have just seen way too many examples of how bid bots hurt far more than they help. I understand that you're trying to do the best you can with it, but I've seen others with the same goals that were corrupted over time, and not even a lot of time. And as I said above, I have not been shown examples of how any beginner who has taken this route has thrived.

All good - didn't assume that you had anything personally against me :)

I currently don't have much time since I spend most of my time developing, but there are def. quite a few people who have used those services to their advantage.

From the top of my head:

@flauwy and @spiritualmax


The risk of corruption comes with power and I see that in myself - as I'm only human. But I'll continue to stay strong!

I am happy as well, may your account grow @dreemit and support all your dreams my dear friend <3
