RE: Negative Voting and Steem

in #steem8 years ago

@beanz Bots don't have feelings and aren't going to care. People care though. They make bots because it's easy to make bots and there is a financial incentive. You would need to eliminate the financial incentive but even that wouldn't stop the bots.

Let's say I ALWAYS agree with you beanz, literally you and I are always in agreement, at least to the point that I can find some excuse to upvote you for everything you do.
Maybe we're friends and even if I disagree with you. i want you to have this money, so I upvote you all the time.

How am I any different from a bot that follows you around upvoting everything you say or do?
So what's the difference between me and a bot that does what I tell it to?
