code is law and the system is what it is...
I personally only use smartmarket and I would say that the part that is given back to the community is a bit higher there but it is still a vote selling system. I try to read as much as possible and curate manually as well.
So for me I am in both camps, using a system but not in my opinion abusing it.
But that is why I think Ned seems to be distancing himself of what is going on here on the blogging end, has mentioned the "issues" and that means he hopes that SMT will be a game changer that will nullify the current problems
Yeah I don't know and to each there own. At the moment, I am not comfortable with any of the current bidbot systems and less so with some of their operators through discussions. Perhaps there will come a better option that will both reward decent authors and still be suitable for a delegator. I can't see myself buying votes but, delegating to the right bot may be an option one day.
I hope SMTs are a game changer and I hope what changes is the gaming of the system. It would be nice to see what this place would be without all the maximization of individuals. But, that can be said of the whole world... we are just no better, despite the rhetoric.
well, we are the world, maybe a small slice of it but a true representation of it.
now to the request of the day. I can see on your witness voting list that you still have wackou on there. Since he is no longer functional would you mind swapping him out and giving the new kid on the block (us, lol) a chance? we are running @swisswitness
thanks in advance for checking
I will have a look into it. I didn't know wackou was not functioning, thanks.
hey, I saw you cleaned up your list a bit... what would a small witness like ours have to do to earn your vote since you are on 27 now?
you can use steemconnect now to vote if you want to
