STEEM Bots — SteemCN

Bots used on Steemit.com (originally posted on STEEMit website)

Everyone knows about the Wang Bot right? The Bot that greets you in the 'introduceyourself' tag. It has made over $1,000,000 estimated value in STEEM Power.

I assume @wang was created by @ned or @dan or someone at @steemit

This is a bot that newer Steemit users can appreciate. It was created by 1 person who owns 3 Whale accounts:
@steemed
@itsascam
@steemroller

One month ago, when there were about 200-400 posts a day, he said he was having trouble keeping up with all the good content, so he had to make a Bot that could do some work for him. There are now nearly 8,000 posts per day, which is 0ver 16x as much content as there was a month ago. This is a bot that is meant to do good.

Here is a blog by @cryptoctopus about the job of a Witness is

And here is a blog by @dantheman basically saying that Whales sould vote for anything with any value, not just for the very best content.

This is a Curation Bot, called @Curator
https://steemit.com/steem/@curator/i-made-a-curation-bot-for-steem
This bot takes as much information as possible, without actually reading your content (since it's a robot), then makes a vote determined on the information gathered. Bots like this could be used by the casual Steemit user who doesn't have more than a few hours a week to dedicate to Steemit, but wants to remain active. Or a Whale who wants their vote attached to as many good blogs as possible, without just following specific blogs that they have already heard of. Eventually Bots like @Curator will also be used like Search Engine Web Crawlers to produce data for Websites based around Steemit.

There is also an Anti-Plagiarism bot called @Cheetah

It flags Plagiarized content. It was created by @anyx and he also gives credit to
@xeroc
@pharesim
@pfunk
@cryptoctopus
@ash
@tuck-fheman
@neoxian
@positive

This is a bot that helps a Witness keep everything moving by alerting them of different things and giving them analytics.

This is an update to the Original post about STEEM Bots which can be found here:
https://steemit.com/steemit/@marsresident/bots-and-the-steemit-ecosystem
A few Tools for Bot building can also be found there.

This post is to Update you on 2 new Bots (7 others can be found int he Old post) as well as a suggested bot.

@calva is a Bot that used to just post random gifs and quotes on the Marijuana tag, and maybe in a few other categories. I have seen it in the Introduce Yourself section now, and it seems like it is offering to be a tool for new users. Now you can send it commands and it will respond with requested information.

@jeeves doesn't have any public information available. I am not exactly sure what it does, but it seems like it posts in every single category, and maybe on every single post. And it suggests that you read the 3 highest paid posts in your category.

And then the suggested Bot. There should be a bot that does 2 things. 1, Instead of just randomly upvoting there should be a bot that you can request to follow your blog. And 2, there should be a bot that can chat. Like a chat bot that comes when you tag it, and maybe it could auto-upvote any replies to it. Just a suggestion.
