Let me clarify what I said a couple of posts ago about the price of my attention.

I am not an upvote bot!

I am not an upvote service

I am selling my ATTENTION.

So what does this mean exactly?

It means that when you send me 1 SBD (or 1 Steem) a fleshy human being (myself) will look at your post and judge it just like I would any other post.

Think hard about the ramifications of this. Sometimes I sleep, sometimes I'm taking a bath, or going for a walk, or out shopping. It may be some time, perhaps even many hours before I even have a chance to look at the post.

I am not an upvote bot.

I'm not even sure how people got this idea. I never said anywhere that I was an upvote bot, certainly my post never said that.

I have never in any way, shape, or form promised an upvote from a wallet spam with money. I am under no contractual obligation to provide any sort of an upvote, or a sufficient upvote from an unsolicited wallet spam, and I'm not making that promise now.

I am promising you my attention, not an upvote.

If you send me 1 SBD, all I have to do is write a comment on your post saying that I have read it, and I will have fullfilled my end of the deal.

Does that sound like a good deal? No? Then don't send me any money.

My attention is non-refundable

Generally speaking, this service is not refundable. It's not like I can take back my attention once given, right?

When you send me money for this purpose you are taking some risk. Think of me as Randowhale if you like.

If you have trouble understanding this post, then please just don't ever send me money, because I don't have time to deal with you, and refund you everytime you fuck up. If you become too troublesome as a customer, I'm just going to blacklist you from this service.

I only want to deal with smart people, sorry.

Tips on using my service:

• I will not upvote spam or plagiarism, or crap posts.

• Don't send me a link to post less then 30 minutes old.

• Don't send me a link to a post older than 6 days

• I like to keep my voting power between 100% to 90%. Check my power first. If i'm getting closer to 90% then my votes will get weaker or non-existant.

• If you are too dumb to follow instructions and you harass me for votes or refunds. I'm just going to blacklist you from this service.

FAQ

Why not just run an upvote bot. You'd probably make more money.

Yep, I probably could make much more money and Steem would just have one more bot, and become that much more crap.

If I send you more money, do I get a bigger vote?

No, see, you are treating me like an upvote bot again. I am not an upvote bot. You would get more attention, whatever the hell that means.

If you have read this post and understood it, then I ask you to write that you understand that I'm not an upvote bot in your comment along with whatever else you were going to say.
