Do SteemBasicIncome Bots Have a Bug in Their Software?steemCreated with Sketch.

in steembasicincome •  6 years ago 

Not that I’m complaining, but I’m getting some strange upvotes from #steembasicincome bots.

Over the last 24 hours, I’ve made six comments to posts by other Steemians. All six of them have been upvoted by either @sbi2 or @sbi3.

I do understand that if you own SBI units but don’t write a post for 7+ days, the bots will start upvoting your comments. But I have 7 (now, 8) active posts.

Has anyone else been getting unexpected SBI upvotes for their comments?

Or did they change their policies, and I just missed the memo?

This was published when my gina was taking a nap, and I missed it! There has always been a bug in the logic that identifies whether an account is supposed to receive comment votes or not. Because it's a minor bug and still delivers value that the member is due, just not where they expect to receive it, it has not been a high priority.

I haven't noticed any and I just checked my SteemNow. You've won the SBI lotto we didn't know existed! :)

There is a different SBI lotto that you don't know exists... ;)

We have an @sbi-booster account that is a little more discretionary. There is a channel in our Discord with some extra boosts for members with 40+ SBI. With any surplus VP it trails the SBI accounts and delivers 100% upvotes, but only when its VP is above 70% (resulting in a completely extra 6 cent upvote going out to some lucky SBI member a few times per day.)

Oh, is that what the 40+ room was about? I have 40+ but didn't know what it was for! :D Should we be posting in there?

It's in a separate room. Ping me on Discord and I will show you where.

Yeah, I've seen it, I just didn't know what the room was for. Do you need to post in it to be eligible?

There are unit-level rooms with numbers that are more like clubhouse hangouts (that aren't super active, to be honest).

Then there is #on-demand posting where you can request upvotes from @sbi-booster. It will do a 25% upvote once every 24 hrs on a post by an account with 40+ units. The post must be between 15 minutes and 5 days at time of request.

If you support programs that also have 40+ units and you see they're not using it, you are welcome to request for their posts too.

Awesome, thank you for the explanation!

Nothing strange on my end. Only upvotes on posts. Maybe you hit the lottery? Did you play SBI jackpot in Vegas?

So far I have not seemed any unusual from SBI, I have only 15 SBI in the program.

I haven't gotten any unexpected votes from them (I own only 1 SBI).
