You come after me for wanting to fund development using the reward pool (that's mainly going to shit posts) and I will go after everything you use your SP for. I think that's a pretty easy concept to grasp and I'm sure everyone else can understand that.
We're all seeing the true colors of @fulltimegeek!
Only narcissistic fucks like yourself can "understand that." You're basically saying that it's ok to rape the reward pool with shit posts because others are already doing it. And now you also want to flag those I delegate to that do the hard work of curating. Go ahead and make yourself the super-villain of steem if you want.
This is besides the point, but the "hard work of curating" has always cracked me up. Why is it hard work? Is that admission that the content on Steemit is so bad that going through them is hard work? And if so, why do some individual - in your mind - "bad posts" even matter, then?
Or if the content is good, it's not hard work to go through it. I'm so confused.
The "hard work of curating" thing was used by the STEEM Guild back in the day to justify themselves using ned's keys to self-vote them to the top of trending every day.
Literally the exact thing people do on Facebook every day for free: clicking a like button.
Hard work!
I curate. I upvote content that I like. Where's my delegation? As a matter of fact, every single user here curates. :D
All curators are equal, others are just more equal than others?
It's so asinine.
Literally the only thing anyone ever needs to go here is follow people they like, upvote content that they like. All this over-complication on Steemit that's been going on since day 1 is ridiculous.
And then some people take it upon themselves to act like the righteous heroes of content curation.
It's also funny how your fanboys are of course legit, but God forbid if someone is bernie's friend, it's just ass kissing.
Because you are the caped crusader.
Usually the people on this platform that moralize the most are the biggest hypocrites.
Now is that the truest statement ever uttered on Steemit, or what.
There are exceptions, of course.
Yes, it's unfortunate that's the only way to reap the benefits I am due for holding SP. That's not my fault but I will take some of the rewards due to me, I assure you.
And yes, if you, or any of your accounts, flag any of my accounts I will negate every single vote you or any of your delegates place. Let me remind you, you are the one who started this and you also have less than 1/3 of the SP I have. This is a losing battle for you. Taking 1/3 of my rewards will have 0 effect on me now or in the future.
You got my witness vote for now.
For your attention:
You are voting for themarkymark for a witness.
Not only he is a piece of shit, but he is not even voting for your witness in return despite having 5 empty spots in his list.
He is also voting for nextgencrypto and patrice, whom are the two worst pieces of shit here, slightly worse even than himself.

Well, shit! Every time I think things are going to be okay, I wake up to some news like this. I guess it's back to the Craigslist jobs section for me because it sounds like I won't be able to count on any of my pending payouts for my upcoming rent like I was hoping. I guess that's what I deserve for living hand to mouth while trying to make an escape from the system for me and my friends.
And just when things were finally beginning to work themselves out so that I could really focus on doing stuff I love and not worry so much about keeping my head above water, while giving my fellow teenyfish a hand up in the process... Darn it. Oh well, right? Too bad for us.
So, like, @berniesanders, if you're gonna wipe me out, could you just please do it fast like ripping off a bandaid? It's been a really hard year for me transitioning to full time steeming and if it's all just going to be taken away, I guess I'd prefer the guillotine over the garrote.
p.s. I'm sorta kidding around here but not about the anxiety of being at your mercy. I wish you'd reconsider.
You are asking the wrong person. It's absurd to think that when I am attacked I will not go on the offensive.
I suggest you talk to @fulltimegeek and open his eyes to the real world.
Bottom line is that all you guys need to realize that this place is going to die without new blood. You can take what you can, but the "take" is getting smaller every day. When I got here 10 months ago, Steem was $8... Now its $0.80 ... That means its lost 90%.
You and @fulltimegeek can fight all you want (and add in @haejin too), but the bottom line is that people like me are leaving in droves. You can fight for the scraps and maybe live another year, but I'm telling you this place was loved by many at one point. It was something that kept us coming back religiously. Now... not so much.
And if you think that limiting people's ability to be "social" (like @ned wants) is the answer, then you are in the "grab what you can" phase that he's in.
Its ok to do what you want. All of you. This is life and people should be free to make their own choices. But if you don't open your eyes and see what is happening below you, then you will wake up one day and say "wow, why didn't anyone tell me".
I suggest a different path...
was revolutionary... That made Steem attractive. If you turn it into another cryptocoin, then it will suffer the fate of the other 99% of alt coins out there. Think about what makes Steem special, and you guys have the answers if you focus on what your competitive advantages are.I suggest that you and @fulltimegeek and others like you quit bickering and talk some fucking sense into @ned. Steemit
Good luck to all... I'm out.. Thanks for listening to those that got this far!
Hey, @fulltimegeek... @berniesanders wants me to ask you to open your eyes to the real world.
There. That oughta do it.
