RE: Dear the greatest Bid-bot owner on Steemit...

in #bidbot7 years ago

hey!

Yes it's not hard to code at all and it's certainly not the reason.

Limiting to a unique bid per user doesn't really solve the issue - they are just reducing their ROI/promotion on the other posts I think. Maxing the bid per user sounds good though.

Heck, why not take it a step further and stop the bidding rounds when the ROI is below a certain percentage.

And I thought I was being cheeky! haha :D

Cheers!

Sort:  

Yeah, they're reducing the ROI for all the posts in the same rounds, so with 2 or more bids, you'll decrease your own ROI meanwhile you'll also affect the ROI for the other bidders too.

So even if something like that wouldn't solve issues, it should definitely help to keep the ROI at better percentages. At least that's how I see things.

Well, cheeky or not... Kind of "common sense" to me actually. They claim themselves to not be cash machines and for "promotional" use. - But where's the promotion if the users ends up with a negative ROI?

I could basically just give someone $1 SBD to flag my post at a certain percentage instead. - That's not the greatest idea when it comes to promotion. ^^

haha, don't say that! :D

You will always get something of an up-vote, certainly not a - vote. But yes, this amount is in the hands of the other bidders - some of which have much bigger pockets than others.
