You also get a small upvote from the bot
Or... you can do nothing, and we will happily keep on resteeming and upvoting you every time you hit one of our categories!
If you just re-steemed that would be great. As you grow in SP users will try to manipulate your bot to get a couple of cents up-votes. Run a couple bots in different tags then it's easy to tag spam them, wait for the votes, remove the tags.
Badges like @steemitboard would be more difficult to manipulate than up-voting every person that posts in a tag. If someone were to have a badge that could be easily manipulated to get up-votes I would feel the same.
Since you replied you obviously care about the community. Come find me on steemit.chat. Maybe we can put our heads together to figure out a way to prevent you bot from being abused. Such as not upvoting anything @cheetah has flagged. Having a blacklist for known tag spammers, etc.
I dig that. I'll come find you sometime tomorrow (1am here right now, lol).
The voting isn't working right now anyway, but even when it does I'm only giving a 0.1% vote, lol. But I see your point for sure.
Sorry I haven't come and found you... got nailed with the flu. Not blowing you off. I did go ahead and remove the vote code (and description) from the bot. At least until I can figure out a way to do is that's generous without being abused. I'd sort of like to see it used to help "bump" newbie posters (maybe based on time since signup/etc?) without it being so much of a boost that it makes abusing it really at all effective. Perhaps those who are new, get above 35 rep, and are making a post to comment ratio of a certain percent? Who knows... a lot to think about. Though, it'll be quite a while before it's really even at enough SP to be something to think hard on.
