THe problem however is that even if you buy only 1 upvote, (or domeone else does so for you), you get stuck with the message (which lookslike any other loud bot message). And what about people like you and me, @bycoleman? We use the bots, but we stay under $50...? And shoulf you upvote your own comment? I understand visibility is important, but it’s a bit of a bad message you’re sending by upvoting yourself... Anyways,... there are more questions I have, the system is not perfect, but it’s like I said before: at least there is someone who is trying to do something. I have been making some comments, making clear yo people it is not a judgement, still, they feel judged. I think that’s a good thing...

Thank you very much for the support and questions. I believe the true goal of this has to be transparency and not judgement as you say. With a mission so clearly defined, then those that find transparency a problem, need to search their own self and find out what is causing them stress with transparency. Due to limitations of SP, I had to start start at $50.00, if I were to try to do $25.00 the bot would not have enough bandwidth.

Forgive me for being so nosy, but I suspect that a lot of people will get pissed off. I just want to be sure I can reply in a correct way and use good arguments

You are not being nosy at all, your questions are well thought out and extremely useful. I hope I have helped you with useful answers, which may change as the platform dictates.

ABOut the upvotong: I see you sometimes do it, but sometimes you don’t. Any particular reason for that?

As far as my own upvoting, I would love to up vote everyone, but because a lot of my SP is going towards this bot and other entities like @introbot, I often drop below 80%, (right now it is at 73%) so I have to let things rebuild. I would let it drop further, but then I cannot protect the bots.

On the bot upvoting itself, this is how it survives at this early stage, plain and simple. Later, more people may do that. If the bot (or someone) does not upvote, then every comment would get hidden with the smallest downvote. I monitor downvotes and upvote as necessary
