RE: Voting Abuse and Ineffective Curation: A proposal for blockchain-level change

in #steem7 years ago

Exactly @everittdmickey. Thats the simple solution to a complex problem. Let's relate with one another as humans again. Voting bots should be gone except those that have been proven to bring value to the steem economy eg @utopian-io. Thanks!

You can't selectively ban bots though. What's the criteria if you do that? And who is the judge of what is a good voting bot and what is a bad voting bot? In a "decentralized" platform, where we can't even get the top 20 witnesses on the same version, what is an easily agreeable set of rules to become a "good" bot?

Even if we were able to ban bots entirely, there would be a next thing that defeats the intent, and a next thing after that. People are always willing to work their asses off not to have to work. It's really strange. Of all the crap posts out there, if the people doing them would take the time to create actual useful content, they might find it less work than screwing the system.

VOTING bots...all bad. Only people should vote.

I'm so lazy I work my ass off just to get some rest =p

Utopian is not a voting bot. It votes only on varified posts.

Even if it only votes on verified posts, it's voting.
