A good way to down-vote trending topics by making easy to solve calculations @heimindanger, however, your tool is still a mere tool that is based on numbers and can not read the actual content. I saw you down-voted some posts on trending that contain decent quality.

As for our post, that you down-voted as well, if you would read our previous articles and this one, we try to motivate users to improve the quality of Steemit, since we are new and there are a lot of circle-jerk-voting going on that will only vote for themselves or 'proven', we cannot get the exposure that would lead it to the new Steemian (who look at trending) without using a bot.

The education we provide is normally education that we would charge clients for. An amount that the majority of Steemit cannot afford 101, hence the reason we started this project to provide education that not only would increase the chances for higher rewards for those who struggle to get noticed but would benefit the entire community as a whole. Even if 1-5% would start putting a little bit more effort or time into the platform than they already do, this would change the brand-identity of Steemit created by the user itself.

We stimulate more contributing engagement by adding something unique in their reply/comments/up-votes or whatsoever. While Steemit is already the #1 with the number of transactions per day, more engagement means more transactions, more flow, possible distribution of rewards and so on.

Yes, we agree, using a voting bot is not something we enjoy doing since the ROI is not higher at all. This might be hard to believe since we have used it on 3 articles already. Currently, there is -no- other way to get our articles seen by the right (amount) of people.

We suggest that you read -all- listed articles before adding them to your own down-vote automated list.

Cheers,
