Splinterlands is a disappointment for me. It certainly in pay to win and the pay amount is ever increasing. When I have a look on some discords and see the amount some people are throwing around on a nearly daily basis, I realise that I can never compete and make it in the leagues.
Now you mention that there is a penalty placed on starter cards so that rewards are reduced for each starter card in play too. Ouch.
It's just another money siphon. Kudos to the people who started it all though, it's the only half decent way to collect NFTs if that's what floats your boat.

It's a tough one, really. I don't think the creators wanted it to reach this point, but with the sheer volume of farming the game wouldn't last and no-one who's put time and effort into it wants to see it collapse. I gather some people have hundreds of accounts on bots.
Anything online is open to botting. Some of the parameters I can enter into some of mine are quite ludicrously specific. I don't use them on Hive but have experimented with some and can fake just about anything.
Steemit and Hive encourage bots by their very openness and easy access to code. If they didn't then so many other services wouldn't be possible. When everything is open, people take advantage, especially for money's sake. Automation is such a a tempting tool.
Very true. I'm taking advantage of it myself with my daughter's account... through a third party, though, because I have no skills in it myself.
