This helps authors whose posts otherwise goes unnoticed. While none of my posts have been featured as a daily pick, @dragonslayer109 had me as a guest author, so I can attest to the level of exposure a mention from him could gain.
Steemit's current ecosystem is harsh for a lot of authors, myself included, so it's nice to have a marketing push from users who have many followers.

It is rude to flag a persons post without giving a reason in comments, even more so is it to abuse flagging. Flagging content is only to be used for slander abuse(of any kind) and plagiarism.

@riensen, where do you get these stats?

That's easy. Just go to the Front Page or Hot area. Most Authors here are regularly upvoted by the same whales - often at the same time. @smooth has been voting for @ dragonslayer109 for over 20+ past posts. The same is true for other bots and other authors like @masteryoda @ericvancewalton @sirwinchester and lots more - literally all the authors on Hot or Trending.

It is hard to say. @laonie is a big investor in steem and made this post about other bots he found. What matters though are "whale bots" like @smooth as they give you a sizeable payout and make your post trending automatically. I might make a post about it later today if people are interested.

The big question is how to get a whale bot to vote for you... as it seems now, whales only vote for specific authors and every other author is hanging in the wind...

@smooth is not a bot, he does operate bots though. Just head over to steemit.chat and you will see his comments. Also, on a lot of posts he does comment. I like the unconventional attitude he has sometimes.

@dragonslayer109 and @anduweb are correct. I am not a bot. I have my bot use my extra voting power to vote for authors I've identified as producing consistently good content. If the content turns out not to be good in a particular instance, I remove the vote, as I did in the case of that bot test. If an author's quality declines I adjust the bot to remove that author from consideration. I also vote for many posts by new or unknown authors, which I pay a staff of 10 people to identify. Hope this helps understand what is going on.

Thanks. I have followed for a while and I must say thank you for your inspiration too, it sure rubs off on people. I can say it has rubbed off on me and I am starting something similar to your daily post titled Daily Pick of Hidden Memes @ https://steemit.com/meme/@delphia16/daily-pick-of-hidden-memes-1 . It will be hard-work as I just got a wind of the kind of work you have been doing. Half your success will be huge deal for me!
