The Top 10 Posts NOT Promoted by Bots

So without further ado, here are the top earning, text based posts (excluding dmania etc.) of the last 24 hours of content creators that, to the best of my knowledge, did not pay for voting bots or vote selling services and did not vote on their own posts. A list of the humble, so to say. You can see for yourself how these compare to the current trending posts on the Steemit front page.

#2 Arhats in the Window of the Exhibition Hall -- by @slowwalker with a current reward of 35 SBD

There was an another room at the End of the Exhibition Hall. The room looked very special, it seemed that the curators of this museumd like to combine arhats with music. The center of the room was displayed with the speakers. A group of arhats were displayed in the windows. There were two windows in the room. Arhats in the window were not perfect ones. Some lost their body, and some part of arhats face was erased. The curator in this exhibition seemed to try to show those unperfected ones ...

#3 Eating at the Frontier -- by @pinkspectre with a current reward of 34 SBD

You will be hard pressed to find a local that would speak ill of this establishment, as it is a true Albuquerque tradition. The Frontier is located directly across the University of New Mexico, but it is frequented by more than just college students. People from all walks of life, from all over the state, from every corner of the city, come to enjoy the food and atmosphere distinct to the Frontier. The Frontier To an outsider, it may seem like an unimpressive eatery, which is understandab...

#4 Dumpstaphunk -- by @pinkspectre with a current reward of 33 SBD

I was super stoked to catch NOLAs own Dumpstaphunk last night at the first in this years series of Albuquerque Summerfest concerts. These guys are great, which you would expect from members of the legendary Neville clan. With Ian Neville on guitar and Ivan Neville son of Aaron Neville and nephew of the Neville Bros. on vocals, the band lays down thick, juicy New Orleans funk and jazz, backed up by a killer horn duo for an eminently danceable music experience. They performed a really jam...

#5 Halloween Bank Heist -- by @pinkspectre with a current reward of 32 SBD

10 minutes down Highway 250 from my small Virginia hometown lies the small farming community of Stuarts Draft. It was here on Halloween Day in 1939, some desperate bankrobbers would pull a job that proved to be their ruin. The Peoples Bank was about to close for the day when two men with hat brims low to cover their faces walked in brandishing pistols. As the first announced to the cashiers of the stickup, the second menaced the sole customer, preventing her from fleeing and giving up the g...

#6 Pee Mak Thai movie not good, but exhibits the Thai fear of ghosts -- by @gooddream with a current reward of 32 SBD

I enjoy watching Thai movies, especially when they have subtitles. I can speak Thai, but for me, watching a movie is supposed to be enjoyable and translating inside my head feels like I have to constantly do math and I would prefer to not do that. Pee Mak is a comedy disguised as a horror movie. Parts of it are a bit gory but for the most part it is meant to make you laugh. source So, I said that this film is not good and that is mainly because it is childish and annoying yet the fil...

#7 Bath County Memories -- by @pinkspectre with a current reward of 31 SBD

As told to me at least a dozen times by and oldtime Virginia farmer when I worked for him in my early 20s, and recreated from my somewhat faulty memory banks Its a beautiful May Saturday morning in 1965. My buddy Earl and I were driving my VW beetle for a campingfishing trip on the beautiful Bullpasture River. As we crested the last hill before dropping down into Williamsville, a young squirrel shot across the road. We heard the thump. Steve said,What was that?.....I smiled, and said, Dinne...

#8 Halloween Bank Heist, Part 2 -- by @pinkspectre with a current reward of 31 SBD

Thankfully, less than a minute after the robbers absconded, a local boy named Bobby Black came into the bank to get change for his dime. Seeing the bank was empty, and hearing frightened voices coming from the vault, he rushed out to find help. The nearest person was poultry farmer Jason Weaver, who realized that time was of the essence for the trapped victims. While others arranged for an acetylene torch to be brought into the bank, Weaver shouted to the men inside for the combination. In ...

#9 SPOILERS The Most Hated Woman in America film I never knew this actually happened SPOILERS -- by @gooddream with a current reward of 31 SBD

This film is a biographical drama about the life and death of Madalyn Murray OHair an outspoken Atheist who was either a troublemaker or a champion for civil rights, depending on your personal perspective. She is responsible for getting bible lessons and prayer banned in public schools in the 1960s and was a controversial public figure for many many years. Apparently she was kidnapped and murdered in 1995 along with her son and granddaughter. source There was some speculation a...

#10 In a Valley of Violence film One of the worst films I have seen in a while -- by @gooddream with a current reward of 30 SBD

This film managed to pull in numbers at the box office quite similar to what an lowlevel accountant makes in a year and for me anyway, it is easy to understand why. This movie is boring, many of the roles are miscast, and well, it is a western and its tough to make westerns interesting. source There are so many things wrong with this film but Ill just mention a few. For starters, the immoral city that the entire film centers around, seems to have a population of 6 people or so It do...
