New players have no problems with bots, because bots play very weak and predictable in bronze and silver as far as I heard.

Everybody loves AI but the bad bots. Why this hate against bots? The reason bots are profitable is, because they play 50 games each day. So let them and enjoy your 90% win rate against them. Splinterlands is about fun not about money making.

I only have a main account with tons of assets an inactive secondary account and a third for testing purposes, but I will vote pro bot farms. They are not bad for the game. I appreciate the work some people put into them.

The solution by the way to reduce bots, for everybody who wants that, is to change the gameplay often and enhance it with variety. That is work! But introducing some CP is easy and, yes, too simple.

That is just my humble opinion for this complex topic.
