It only depends will you do the "dirty" work or not. There are people who are completely fine with using bots to promote garbage content. I tried that on my first posts myself, I must admit, but I felt bad and stopped. There is the difference between working hard in a regulated, functional system and working hard to exploit the vulnerabilities of the system. Some people can, some cant, some can to some degree...nothing bad with that, but habits always remain. We are all different.
