RE: We are the Prisoners

Well, this is true, but doesn't address the concern over whether the sellers even deserve it, so I lumped the bid bot and sellers into one camp (which in some cases are the same whale heh). I assume you mean the bid bot operators could return all but operating costs to distribute to sellers? Powering down any curation rewards as well.

Sort:  

The decline rewards feature is in settings.
If bidbots/vote sellers required customers to select this option they could charge more while negating any impact on the pool.
I wouldnt see votes selling for less than what the vote would have gotten in curation rewards, and could go even higher.
That would be selling visibility.

Ohhhh now I see! Require the posts themselves to decline rewards. Now I get it. Hum... that's very interesting.... So that has the effect of increasing the cost of promotion for bidders while keeping everything else the same. That's odd, so if all the bid bots did this it would have resolve all problems anyone ever has. But bid bots are unwilling to do it individually because the bidders won't use their bot, so they would all have to do it together.

Hum. Well you certainly removed that reason from my list of "valid arguments for bid bots" lol. hops fully onboard change the bid bots train. So they have no solid ground or excuses after all, really.

Thank you for validating my suggestion.
I proposed it in two different bot owner discords and got booted from them.
