Two thoughts I would like to give on this topic:
- We really do need to put in manual voting for topics. I saw this in the bi-weekly and I'm okay with moderators or 'specialists' voting for certain categories of their expertise for the value each contribution is worth.
- I'm okay if the bot sleeps longer. That means more time for the moderators or reviewers to properly evaluate the contributions for their value.
I think we've been accustomed for the bot voting our posts in the next 24 hours, which is great. But this is the consequence of having this much contributions. Again thank you for your hard work and one thing I'm suggesting (an am planning to make sub-project or suggestion contribution about) is to have multiple utopian bot accounts. One account for each category and then spreading the delegated Steem Power to those bots. This is similar to what @randowhale did.
So instead of just one @utopian-io bot, there will be multiple @utopian-io bots (e.g., @utopian-io-bughunter, @utopian-io-tutorials, etc.).
This is one way I believe we can scale.
(Up-voting this comment for visibility)
Multiple bot could be indeed a solution, and manual voting are much needed as well.
Having the bot sleeping longer is not feasible because it will increase the number of contributions to be voted, and the time it sleeps will increase at each iteration.
Thanks @stoodkev for considering the suggestion. Looking forward to the developments. With this will be the need for different maintainers for the bots?
This is noted.
Everybody is welcomed to work on it of course
Thank you. I've been looking for a way to contribute to the bot didn't know how.
I've uploaded my proposal here as a sub-project.
