RE: Nah-ima-stay Positive 🙏 Thank You All 🤙
It's an ongoing battle with myself. Some days it's disheartening to see a dollar of rewards on several hours of work. Other days, a post gains the traction it deserves, or sometimes more than it deserves.
And occasionally you get a glimmer of hope from something that just feels right. Yesterday I was upvoted by gentlebot for about $10 on a comment I had made. Each time I see whales using their SP for good and promoting content based in merit, it reminds me that there's a lot of good people on this platform, and that things can get better.
Thanks for sticking around!
Exactly and that’s what I’m hoping for. I came down a little hard on the Whales, there are many Great people here and there is some sketch too.
I’m looking for the Good & Positive people, whales or not, I care less... ..but if your creating awesome content and your positive and you aren’t afraid to have your own voice. That is what’s up! 😎🤙 thanks for your time and your comment..

I once got upvoted by @gentlebot, how does that work, is it just random?
So I researched for min, and found this helpful post that talks about the bot. It seems @gentlebot randomly selects the highest quality comments (which I dig!) and then upvotes them:

Let me know if that helps or if we need a post about bots in general. 🤙 Cheers
Thanks, I am trying to understand bots... People seem to disagree about them.
Yeah I haven’t gotten into bots, but one gave me an award 🥇 or something for having the most comments in a post or something. Was in my “goodbye” post, I’m learning too, let’s all learn together 🤙
Bots can be good or bad and can serve many different purposes.
Almost everyone is against spam bots whose sole purpose is to earn money by writing low quality comments or posts repeatedly.
Some people disagree with paid voting bots. These are bots where you send them Steem Dollars in exchange for a large upvote.
Other uses of bots might include anti-spam measures like Cheetah, bots to run contests (ex photo contests, writing contests) or bots that will provide advice/upvotes to users on their first post. A bot can really do anything that a normal human could do on the platform - its only limited by the creativity of its designer.
I talked a bit more about various types of bots in a post last week. You can find it here
Awesome, I’ll check it out. 😎🤙
I would be curious how they build the bots. Very interesting.
It would be fun to learn some python (coding) and design your own bot...
