You're not one of my readers so the survey is not for you. If you never read my posts, and you barely blog, do you have any reason to want to make Steemit better for bloggers or readers? Please allow my readers to discuss without your bias.
The survey questions are to find out what bloggers should do. How many times should bloggers post. What kind of content should bloggers post. It's never a situation where there won't be complainers and bloggers can't please everyone.
I see...your tactic is talking about anything beside your abuse of auto-votes. 18 posts in period of 24 hours...just wow, if that is not abusing reward pool, I don't know what is?!
Calling something abuse assumes that bloggers have some sort of responsibility not to blog. Very odd way of looking at things but since you barely blog I guess you would have that perspective.
Tell me what bloggers should do? Stop blogging? If you think there should be a cap on top level posts then ask for the top level post reward cap to be put back. The developers decided to remove it, not the bloggers.
Level of ignoring your own problem of abuse is staggering!!!
Do you want me to stop posting? Is that your idea of solving the abuse? Otherwise bloggers are going to do what bloggers do which is to blog.
I want you and anyone else stop receiving auto-votes worth 25$+ for few sentences and reference link. That posts are worth pennies, not even dollars.
I've narrowed the debate down to A / B.
If you think not then you're being consistent. If you look at Youtube then you will see when Youtube demonetized the Patreon model became more popular among established Youtubers.
No one in the debate is against new bloggers being rewarded or even becoming established bloggers. But what is a successful blogger?
@dana-edwards, to be honest, @cmoljoe has a point. I started following you because you occasionally write about artificial intelligence and machine learning. But I've seen situations where you don't appear to have independent training or knowledge in the material. I was hoping you were a computer science student just learning the ropes. But then I see you "blog" about so many different subjects, I'm starting to wonder. What are you really doing? Do you read articles from the popular tech magazines online and then just paraphrase them here? I'm starting to think that, so I've been reading you less.
In my view, there is no such thing as a professional blogger. If you want to seriously write about a subject, you need to have some independent experience with it, perhaps a degree, or work experience, or something. Otherwise, why would a writer's words have any value?
