A bot doesn’t feel. When I zap, I know I’ve made someone else feel better, and by the laws of human empathy, I feel better myself. Depending on your perspective, there can be arguments made that Zapping is a selfish act. Lately, I’ve been a very selfish person.

A bot doesn’t, but the creator does. I know bot creators like @ek check in on their bot children to see how they’re behaving

Yeah, thinking about how a particularly generous zap will make someone else feel is definitely an important factor.
