There is a difference between using smartsteem's bidbot - @smartsteem or @smartmarket. The question is: what did you use?

So what should be the return on $9.50 bid? " deliberator transfer 9.500 SBD to smartsteem https://steemit.com/busy/@deliberator/found-my-mojo-and-time-to-steem-on 26 days ago" $13.50 like it was?

Wow they always refund me if they don't give me the bid I placed. I dont see how you could have come out bad? When did you do that I would like to look at the post and the bid?

I have never actually bid on @smartsteem in reality that's too high to bid for me being a plankton. I just guessed that it would be fair like @smartmarket since the same people own it?

I noticed recently that they have a -10% loss allowed on that how much did you lose?

You are making me work at this aren't you deliberator transfer 9.500 SBD to smartsteem https://steemit.com/busy/@deliberator/found-my-mojo-and-time-to-steem-on 26 days ago

Yes I don't think you got a good deal after curation. You might have lost a little on that but I don't think you lost 20%.
What is hard to calculate is what the rewards actually are. Every time I try to figure it out the SBD, Steem price fluctuates so much the numbers never match up.
Out of that 13.50 what do you think your actual return was? It always seems way off to me? Also many of the tools don't work properly so its a crapshoot to figure something out here.

Try using @smartmarket its is very nice. The only problem is they have such a great demand that many times you have to keep trying because they just return your SBD. Any way @therealwolf is a standup guy and I think he is trying to be fair unlike many of the others who don't even care. It has to be hell to keep up with it and make everyone happy.

But over all I wish we didn't need bots to get some recognition for our hard work here. I also wish there was a way to make things honest and fair.
But it seems the way of the world is the way of Steemit. The bankers have all the power and we have all the work.
