> How do you want someone to get reputations because if bot buying upvote is bad

Why do you think that bot is the only way to gain reputation, why this shortcut. In steemit lead initiatives, there are a lot of contests/initiatives and the partakers grow their reputation organically, we have more than 1000 users who never used the bot. 

Any reputation that is grown in a synthetic way is a problem to us. We have clearly stated this from the very beginning of Season 4.

What others are doing, we are not obliged to answer on that.

But as far as SCA is concerned if we find that bot/vote-buying services are being used to gain reputation, then we simply won't recognize it.

I hope it clarifies.

Thank you.

This is crazy because i can't find were it was stated in the begining of season 4, do you know why it was not stated because the steemit team know that every one uses a bot for upvote, people delegate to this bot and get up vote so that their post will reach more people.

What!!
Proof of brain is when you dedicate your time and create a post that is not plagiarized that is originally from your brain, so what are you talking about @sapwood.

> Most of the posts using bot are poor in engagement, most of them have zero engagement, we dont want to make this place governed by Power of Bot, We are committed to reinstate the Proof-of-Brain in this ecosystem and that is in line with HF21.

This are the post that you call not engaging @sapwood

Not all my posts votes are bought.

The reason i bought votes in project hope community and stock photo community is because it helps your post get noticed once it is used then follwed buy people commenting on the post so it creates engagement in mt post and i like to hear what others have to say.
