First off massive respect to you for actually taking the time to pick through all those posts that were bidded on - that must have been seriously tedious! Hopefully more of the bot owners will take note and start putting some of their earnings back into developing ways to ensure they are upvoting only good quality posts - I know it is difficult to judge a post through an automated system - but I think @therealwolf has a very clever system with smartsteem.com where accounts can apply to get Whitelisted - manually checked for quality content and then given access to a bigger upvote pool for their work.
