Good post. All valid points. I think the biggest problem for many newbies is the frustration felt when they don't get the attention they think they deserve. Frustration then turns to anger and they then lash out. The only real danger I see is that when someone achieves cult status and a large following, and someone then comes along with an opposing view. I can see the "potential" for the followers of that cult hero to ruin the reputation of the contrarian with constant flagging. I prefer to observe to all commentary with an open mind. Imo there are several people posting here who have achieved cult status and are also "gaming the system" to benefit themselves. I personally go into "attack mode" with posters like that as I care little about how much steem power I end up with in the future as I already know (and have been blogging about how "sentiment" can dictate the future of pricing in ANY market) that it is very likely bitcoin is a mania, And the future of bitcoin and most cryptos is not as bright as many currently believe. Steemit affords me the opportunity to make a record of my various market related opinions and have them all in one location.
