I came across this tag a few days ago. It's the brainchild of @whatamidoing. Personally I think it's an awesome idea. A way for people who, either can't afford to, or don't believe in using the bidbots, to find and support each other.
So in keeping with my recent posts I came up with this...
rhyme about the #nobidbot tag
@whatamidoing is doing his best,
And started on an awesome quest,
He's deployed a tag called #nobidbot,
But the attention it deserves, it hasn't yet got.
"#nobidbot tag?", I hear you ask,
"what the hell is that, and what's it's task?",
Well I'd tell you myself, but I don't think I should,
Cause he's written a post that explains it real good.
When I read it myself, I thought it was great,
A move against Bots that some people hate,
I wanted to help, but now it would seem,
Seven day's have passed so I can't resteem.
So in my bid to assist I came up with this verse,
To help spread the word before things get worse
I must have rewritten this eleven times,
Until I was happy with the way that it rhythms.
But to get back to the point at hand,
I like the idea… I think it's grand,
So read the man's post and support it a lot,
And remember to use the tag #nobidbot.

Ok, so it's not a limerick (or an attempt at kissing ass!), but such big news needs a few more than five lines!

Thanks for the support. Hopefully this can grow into a household name on steemit, I’d love to see organic users getting more support.

This tag will definitely be used!! I read a recent post that said there were 91 bidbots!! That’s 91 too many!! Bought upvotes, bought reputation, and bought a spot in “hot” or “trending”.
Let’s get this tag rollin!!
RESTEEMED!!

91 Damn! Didn't realise there's that many. The #nobidbot tag definitely has it's work cut out. Hopefully it might make it to the main tag list.

I always wanted to be Batman.

Batman would discourage abusers, and educate newcomers before taking advantage of their cultural naivety.
Batman would generously support the community with reciprocal upvoteing practices.
Batman would be able to resist a practice of sarcastic unconstructive replies.
Aside from his submission to spite and vengeance, Batman would be a great example for us all.
Thanks for the reminder.

This is cool, just last week I unfollowed some bucko who was posting mediocre posts and then bot-voting himself from $100 to $150... it was just a joke...
I'm mostly incensed at spammers using bots.
There should def. be a grassroots movement like this.

I totally agree. The whole point of the upvote system is for users to reward good content. Bidbots and group upvoting is scamming the system. I write for Quniverse news reporting on governmental corruption. Monopolies and rampant corruption have got the world in this huge mess.
This idiot @themarkymark is a good example complaining about people abusing his scam and trying to police others gaming the system. This is a prime example of the elitist 'god' complex elevating yourself on a pedestal deciding who wins and who loses. How is his crap post whinging about people gaming his bidbot scam worth $1500+

I will tell all the new struggling artists who I have invited to Steemit and who are struggling to earn a penny with their great original artwork. Many have lost hope with Steemit seeing all the crap and plagiarized work that earns $500 a day and have moved on .... the bidbots are killing Steemit ... the dream is almost dead.
