As most people know, transparencybot creates a comment on every post that has received upvotes from paid vote sellers in excess of $50.00. These comments are generally seen as both welcome and very informative by many authors and followers alike.
There are however, those that have found these comments to be intrusive and just plain spam. Many have said that if you disagree with the rewards, simply downvote the post.
So, to solve this problem, transparencybot will be offline for a few days while the programming logic is expanded to allow opting out of the comments left by @tranparencybot.
How does it work?
- Only the author of the post may opt out.
- Simply reply via the comment left by transparencybot with the words "opt out" or "optout"
- If you elect to opt out of the comment, then transparencybot reserves the right to downvote your post for disagreement of rewards.
I believe this solves the problem of "spam" and also uses the flag as it was intended.
Constructive feedback is welcome as always.

Craig, you are a relentless bully. Yes, you reserve the right with transparency bot to flag people who opt out of your bot. And the community reserves the right to continue flagging you for being unwilling to come to the table for weeks and discuss the opt out option. Pretty sure you remember my comments regarding that specifically over and over again.
Personally, I hope @booster and @fyrstikken follows through and flags you down to -50. Go start a new project is my advice. Something with actual community value. If you wanted to point out the absolute obvious then you should fire up @obviousbot or @repetitiveinfoachildcouldfindbot
Good luck getting your rep above 0 Maybe you buy some booster votes.

This is interesting. Do think think anyone will not opt out? I think the more proper solution is that you require everyone who uses voting bots to put at the end of their posts, "This is a paid advertisement. This post is not endorsed by the community." If they don't do that, you continue to offer your information/warning.

I really like the fact that you are going to use an opt out for your bot! I just have one question.
You stated, even in the comments you leave on posts that its by no means an attack to the post nor quality for said post. Now I read this from you...
If you elect to opt out of the comment, then transparencybot reserves the right to downvote you post for disagreement with rewards.
Is that you saying that you do disagree with the payouts on posts you leave the reply? Because to me that sounds like, Hey if you opt out on my comments I am going to flag you!
Just wondering while slithering in happiness.

You could maybe kill the transparency bot and do a new bot where people could request info. A lot of bidders are losing money on bots and might like to know how they did and some users might like info on a post.
Personally if I use a lot of bots on a post I can lose track of how well I did.

It seems to me a very interesting good idea to avoid that the accounts are worked alone by bot at the end of each post place that would be good excellent work friend greetings congratulations

Your 30 cent downvote is really going to hurt. Oh wait you have sockpuppet accounts I forgot. For someone named Transparency, you are anything but.
