Thank you @jesta
I am aware of many of those points and thank you for adding them. My post was so long already I didn't want drag it on for another day and you expressed it much more clearer than I ever could have. >< So I'm happy it's here now.
I'm not a pro with bots so I wanted stay away from statements I couldn't prove. Though as I was writing the views and votes part I knew they are not a good indicator of a successful post but you made it so clear as to why.
Hah no worries - I totally understand, I'm notorious for writing emails that take hours to read!
