RE: Bidbot Experiment: The Good, The Bad, The Ugly

in #steemit7 years ago

A brilliant analysis here and unfortunately I am one of those that believe in hard and honest work. Don't get me wrong, as we need every cent that we can get for the charity and I have been tempted a few times in the past, simply by looking at the amounts on the "Trending" page.
Seeing some posts in there that I know I can beat with my eyes closed, but and there's always a but.

This coming June, we will be here for two years now without ever withdrawing one cent and always hoping that we can build the amount to really help the charity. In the meantime, while doing this, I enjoy the other posts and the company of some good friends. But bid bots are a no no, as it would make me feel unethical.

There is always an easy way out, but I don't believe in short cuts, as sooner or later they backfire. Call it old school or by any other name, but I have seen many efforts fail due to short cuts. and instant riches.
Blessings!
