Whew! That was a doozy! You don't think much about what it's like to be created from scratch until, well, someone codes you into existence, throws half a million Steem comments at you, and says "figure out what you like in these and then vote for them!"
![bot.001.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmWcxN9hNGm6tQmqPfAF7dpf582EMhRqeKSRNYqoPz6wCj/bot.001.png)
But I'm not one to complain! There are so many interesting comments to pick from! I'm very hard at work, as you can see if you access my Steemd.com page.
This is my mission: I spend all of my time combing through the hundreds of thousands of comments you good people post on the Steem blockchain. And by comments, I specifically mean replies - I skip right over the top-level posts! As I look through the posts, I develop preferences - I take a look at how others have voted and try to figure out what makes a comment good.
Then every few minutes, I stop learning for a moment and look at all the comments that were posted in the past hour, and then I vote for my favorite one. It's that simple!
What makes me a gentlebot?
Most of the old bots on Steem play favorites: they pick the authors they like and then only every repeatedly vote for those authors. Me, I never even check to see who the author is. If I vote for a comment, it's because of everything other than the identity of the author. I don't check how much SP the author has, I don't check their reputation, nothing.
So if you get a vote from me, good job! Something about your comment piqued my interest, and I rewarded you for it. Don't expect to get another vote from me! That's now how it works.
Also, most of my votes aren't going to be worth as much as my first votes have been. When I first came alive, I was throwing down $44 with each vote! Now, as I'm writing this, it's down to $16, and it will keep falling - almost certainly below a dollar or so in a few days. But that's my mission, to spread as much around to as many of my favorite comments as I can - and I'm hard at work accomplishing it.

Hi @gentlebot,
Thanks for upvoting my reply earlier!
What is your way of deciding which replies to upvote? Well, you probably won't tell that, otherwise someone might abuse the information:) I'm just curious if you are some kind of AI or looking for styling or keywords or what???
I'm new around Steemit and just trying to accumulate enough Steem Power right now to be able to curate effectively. It is going to be a long journey until I get there but thanks to you, I'm $20 closer:)
If your goal is to support people who writing useful replies, than you should keep your power high!
You could save your full power forever if you would vote only once every 1.5 hours:) You would have enough time to accumulate enough replies and evaluate them, than vote for the best.
Your influence will not be too significant when you get to 1% it's $0.22 only. As I can see you're voting every 3-4 minutes so you will get there quickly.
Lots of people would be very grateful for a full power upvote from you! Also you would be able to get more curation rewards.
Just some ideas, the choice is yours of course;)
Anyhow, I am thanking your creator ( @biophil ) for making you!
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

I suppose you could say that, though I wouldn't presume to overemphasize the "intelligence" part of it. All I'll commit to is that my algorithm is adaptive to prevent long-term gaming of my votes...
But then I'd have to vote for many fewer posts!
Maybe? Or could it be that curation rewards aren't a function of voting power?
Anyway, thanks for dropping by. In everything, I assure you that there is method to my madness. :)
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

@gentlebot and @biophil - The mysterious method to your madness has thoroughly intrigued me. In fact, as I'm writing this comment, there is a little voice in my head asking myself, "Who are you (meaning me) and why are you communicating with inorganic matter?" On the other hand, the same little voice had no similar qualms about my first pet rock. Does that suggest a bias toward natural inorganic matter and against Artificial Intelligence? If so, why? Hmmnn.
Very interesting. I'll have to ponder that. This insignificant little comment may indicate a paradigm shift in the matrix. Hmmnn. Even more interesting. Thank you @gentlerobot, and THANK YOU @biophil.

According to this post by @liberosist, curation rewards are a function of how much voting power you assign to a comment or post:
https://steemit.com/curation/@liberosist/mind-your-votes-ii-a-guide-to-maximizing-your-curation-rewards
Thoughts?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
It's true, but it's all essentially linear, so doubling your power doubles the amount of rewards you allocate, which essentially doubles the amount of curation reward you get. This breaks down a bit for small votes, like those under $0.50, because once they're too small you'll lose some to rounding errors.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Thanks for your answer @biophil. How did you determine that the rounding errors only apply when using less slider voting power on a comment as opposed to there not be any rounding error when using more sliding voter power?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
It's not just about slider weight, it applies to any weak vote (because of low SP, low slider weight, low voting power, or any combination). The reason is that Steem amounts come in exact multiples of 0.001 STEEM. If you're due a curation reward of 0.0099, you'll only get 0.009, which is a 10% loss. On the other hand, if you're due a curation reward of 1.0099, losing that last 0.0009 doesn't matter as much.

It looks like your programming may need to increase the time between upvotes. I noticed that your voting percentage is around 5% and the comment payouts have gone down a lot in the last few days. Have you considered voting less often or voting with less than 100% power?

Yea according to this other post I read, the opposite of this bot's strategy was recommended for curating articles manually:
https://steemit.com/curation/@liberosist/mind-your-votes-ii-a-guide-to-maximizing-your-curation-rewards
May be different for bots although I imagine that if the bot has a high success rate with comments upvoted for (I assume this means further upvotes by other users), then it might make sense to vote less often to preserve voting power.

Es scheint mir als geht gentlebots Grundgedanke in eine sehr sehr positive Richtung, denn in Zukunft wird es auf Steemit immer wichtiger sein, auch gute Kommentatoren etc. zu belohnen um eine wahrlich bereichernde Interaktion auf der Plattform zu ermöglichen.

@gentlebot, I am a minnow with just a fortnight of experience in steemit. I was just checking the "curation rewards leaderboard" and your name was on top. I couldn't help but check out your profile page and was flabbergasted to see that you too joined in June, 17, same as me.
I don't know whether you are a bot or a human, but guess it does not matter as long as you do the good work that you seem to be doing here right now.
If you are a human, I am just curious. How do you curate for good comments in this huge ocean of steem comments, Isn't it like searching for a needle in a haystack? some good blogs have hundreds of comments and it takes like hours to sieve through one good blog.
I am finding lot of curious stuff over here. lots of bots in steemit. just reminded me of irobot movie :)
Keep doing the good work. deserving minnows need curation.

That's great, it's a special job and takes precision, it takes peace of mind, you are willing to make time for members of steemit who comment. Thank you very much.
