RE: Building the road to success - Chapter 3
Very true, that is nothing worse. For me that is just the same. But he doesnt has a negative ROI. WIth the curation of his amount he stil has some profit.. Or I counted his money putting in wrong, that can be of course. But generally you shouldnt misuse the mazes of the system... in my opinion..
Where are you getting this figure from? HE spent 330 SBD promoting this post. Since it's all bid bots the votes come in after the 30 minute mark which gives 25% rewards to curation.
505 x 0.75 = 378.75
378.75 / 2 = 189 SBD + 189 USD (worth of Steem)
SPENT 330 SBD GOT 189 SBD + 189 USD (worth of Steem) BACK
HOW IS THAT NOT NEGATIVE ROI?
It looks you did the math better than I did, so excuse me for that. Doesn't change my opinion though, but what is your opinion about this? Do you think it's fair use from bot's ?
The point is if you're going to vilify people buying votes you have to abhor the circle jerking and self-voting. Seriously, take a good look at trending. Nobody can get there without a massive self-vote or a vote from a friend whale.
I guess you have a good point there indeed.. Perhaps my fault for my comment cause at once I saw many posts of him with massive rewards... But trending isn't trending anymore like you say, it's more a paid showroom :)
Reputation also counts for something I guess, eventually he spent about $60 to gain reputation and some followers
I have reputation and followers...They're close to worthless. What's worth is here is SP. If you know whales with SP and have SP yourself you're set. Screw followers or reputation.
