Steemit just gets more exciting with bot lovers and bot haters. I'm slowly starting to understand why some people flag me OUCHHHH.They don't like people using bots. Well why did't you say so. I would really like to see the flag system @ned make you say why your flagging before you can even flag. @geekpowered and a few other bot haters I really don't want to mention just keep flagging and never really say why. So you got to go search for the answer. Well I sought for an answer after @geekpowered flagged my post and this is what I found. And it answered my question so I understand a little better.

Ever though @geekpowered flagged my post's.
I thought he did a great job explaining why in the link to his blog in this post, and even though It was a drag that I had to go looking for the answer, but thats how it is sometimes. I had to upvote him for a job well done. I will not use any bots on this post :)
Cheers
That was bad luck and it shouldnt have happened. Anyone to flag your post because you used bots to promote it is wrong and injustice.Because you used the accepted service on steemit.Steemit is now the community like anyother communities offline, the difference is that steemit is online. In any community promotion services is accepted as we see bill boards on the roads and adverts everyhere.
There is no point to stop Apple advertising iphones because they getting more profits than the other brands or local brands even if the quality of the local is better.Same apply to all other brands ,some brands are local and they get high profit without promotions .
Other words you cant stop china manufacturing and selling the goods because they are making more profit than your products with high quality.
Anyway , if they dont want people to use the bot ,why they dont shutdown the bot while they know them, instead they find it reassonable to downvote or flag the work of innocent user of the bot services.
I have been since December last year but wasnt that good at all because there were few and same people enjoying the benefits and making high profit on the steemit, you like it or not ,they were the winners. Is this what they want? I am sure this is not how decentralised platform works.
But since the bot service got better now I see many and different people on the trending.This how it should be.
If they want to run Steemit as a single family media,they should make it clear so people could understand it.
The promotion is on many biggest media, Facebook ,insta, and on ,no one will stop you to use the services for such kind of reasons.
They dont want the bots, they shut down the bots. Otherwise they will put blames on innocent users who pay for that .
Thank you for sharing this .
You have my surpport ! Use bots as long as they are shutdown.

Thats excellent, thx for this post. Thats what I believed also about bots @bornprince. You explained it well. I'm glad you took time to write that. I was still glad to find @geekpowered post and thats what he believes but shouldn't be on a mission to downvote people that use bots. It's so ridiculous.
HEYYYY looks like you get an upvote!!!!!!!
Cheers

This paragraph got my attention, I can call that wall of words and action, upvote plus flag, you are actually saying the truth. People got flag that is normal they say, I can actually think straight on how this thus happen, other than just copying people work if I'm correct, well I believe there will be more than that in my opinion.
If we got flag injustice that is not end of the world for we always learn from life experience though bad experience wasn't good enough.
Beginner might have more problems with this due to not enough orientation. I enjoyed reading. Keep the good work flowing man

I just started to spend some serious time on Steemit and almost immediately I encounter this flagging problem. It seems as if this is a big flaw in Steemit. Sorry if this comment is slightly off topic because I'm not speaking about bots in particular but just the flagging system. Here is an example:
"malekalmsaddi troll abuse and flawed steemit system"
https://steemit.com/steemit/@david-michael/malekalmsaddi-troll-abuse-and-flawed-steemit-system
My general impression of what's going on here on Steemit is that the big players are just obsessed with how to make money out of the system. At first I thought it was probably just a phase, but now I really start to wonder if there are flaws in the system that could prevent it from really going mainstream.
