Thank you for posting this nonameslefttouse lets discuss your comment above.

1. "Everyone can go ahead now, have a look. Not ONE of those trending 'introduceyourself' posts used bots, yet this guy claims everyone does it and all of the time. A bold-faced lie."

I did not claim everyone does this... I said if I was new... I would use the upvoting services and create a piece of content. The introduce yourself tag is a great resource... just because you make an introduce yourself post DOES NOT guarantee anyone will see your post... but if you did use upvoting bots you are much more LIKLEY. Want Proof? You watched THIS video? You commented on THIS video post? Why? You watched it because its at the TOP of the trending page... BOT SERVICES EXIST... and ANYONE can use them... Don't hate the player hate the game.

1. "You're essentially robbing visibility from a new member who can't afford to promote their post to the top at the start with this advice. You're not giving them an edge with this advice. You're telling them to buy STEEM and invest in someone else, rather than themselves, all while making it MORE difficult for your average new member to get off the ground here."

Robbing visibility? Again you're blaming the stake weighted system and voting bots...and you're right.. im not giving them an "edge" im giving them a HUGE ADVANTAGE if they actually APPLY and use the systems in place. ALSO, Yes, I AM "TELLING THEM TO BUY STEEM! LOL!" Thank you for making this VERY CLEAR! Wouldn't it benefit EVERYONE if more people bought STEEM?! It's a WIN WIN situation...

1. Those posts of yours with the low value PROVE your system doesn't work. You have over 12000 followers who refuse to vote for your content now. That's what you bought with bots and you get what you paid for. That's what you get when you focus only on bot use and can't produce content that can attract an organic viewership willing to upvote your content for free. You put yourself in a situation where if you don't purchase the reward value beside your post, you see nothing. Why would you tell others to do that? "That's how I'd do it," you say, and clearly it isn't helping after ALL this time you've been doing it.

Me showing a $.063 cent post ONLY PROVES that NOTHING is GUARANTEED! Go ahead and look at this post itself... it was upvoted by MULTIPLE WHALES ORGANICALLY. I also encourage you to look at all of my other posts on my feed that are upvoted $10s to $100s of dollars with and without bots... (dtube, steemmonsters, other whales and dapps) I do not call that a FAILED system...

1. "All this video was was a goddamn advertisement for bots, disguised as help.

This is sickening. No wonder you added in a verbal disclaimer every few minutes while you were talking. You knew damn well you're full of crap and don't want to take any responsibility for the drivel falling out of your face."

This is not an ad for bots... an ad for bots would talk all about BOTS... I mention them a few times at best and steem bot tracker for 30 seconds...

As for the verbal disclaimer -- the whole point in emphasizing again and again "this isn't FINANCIAL ADVICE" is because its NOT! I am just showing others what I have done... that is all. Not persuading them to doing something... just sharing... giving... period.

1. "One thing I agree with is how it's wrong to blame the platform for not seeing immediate success. It's almost like you used my post (seen above) that I had published three hours before you published this, as a script or for inspiration. I hope it's only coincidence."

LOL this is fantastic. Not only do you come here, rip on my post, but now you're PROMOTING YOUR POST and bumping it to the TOP OF THE COMMENTS on the #1 TRENDING POST ON STEEMIT?! Honestly this is an amazing strategy and one now I will be sharing!! I sincerely thank you for doing this.

ANDDDDDD You are saying I plagiarized you?! I have 37,000 steem power now to date. When I recorded this video I had 32,000 SP.... This video was recorded more than a week ago... I do not follow you... I do not know you... You are literally piggy backing off my post to promote your post. I am loving the irony here.

******* LASTLY I never comment back like this...EVER... because its exhausting and silly. I sincerely value your comment because it has made for a great discussion and proof. No hard feeling, we just see things a bit different. Nothing wrong with this.
