Hi @zuckerzombie, I do enjoy reading your comments. I remember you from my Perspectives post. 🙂

I am fairly new myself so be sure you take other people’s perspectives as well as your own experience when determining your own path of growth.

Therefore I can confirm, that the fastest way to grow (in my case it can be called "micro-growth" compared to other participants - as I haven't invested any own money on steemit, just my own time and the SBD I gained so far on steemit;-)) is the strategy with using bid-bots. I can also understand that the use of bid-bots is double-edged. But I think as long bid-bots are used consciously according to one's own integrity standards it should not be judged.

You are analytical! Absolutely agree. If you are judged for your actions, well, then those supporters just don’t share the same viewpoint as you. Doesn’t mean that one or the other is right or wrong, just differences in opinions.

Of course! Please feel free to use any aspect of this post for your experiment and adopt any of my analysis tools (you are too kind with those word choices 😂). I’m actually not very analytical but sweet of you to think so! 🙂 No need to credit me but I will be happy to stop by to show my small support if you tag me.

Sorry for getting back so late with an answer. It’s challenging for me to find time for Steemit. I see the messages but don’t always have time to reply right back. Definitely don’t use “scientifically validated”, lol, the scientific minds on here might come tear my mini experiment to pieces.
