With all due respect @acidyo it seems IMO that your own answer could have used some perspective - you dove right into talking about vote buying and bid bots, when the original question had nothing to do with vote buying and bid bots. I understand that within the Steem bubble that bid bots and HF21 changes etc. are on top of mind, but that had absolutely nothing to do with the question! If I was a new user who asked that question, and I received your response, it would have confused me and prompted more questions.

BTW this user has successfully made it to Steem and has been having a good experience so far here, even posting a thank you post for her initial reception. She is super talented, and has posted a bunch of "wrecked" Christmas songs that are gorgeously sung, dark and twisted, and many of them still at no payout... maybe you could give her a visit?
