Good to see someone is growing and enjoying it here on Hive. I have to admit the biggest fun is over, at least for me and at least for the moment. It might change some day in the future, so I am not leaving either. Talking about comment voting, I always upvote comments with 50%, that should be at least 3-4 cents depending on my voting power. So fortunately those votes won't be lost.
However, I am sure you are aware that there are other places which will reward you for writing and posting. Hive forked from one of them, and there was another fork later too. And some other web projects work in a similar way, so there are some other options to be fair.
Have a good weekend, I hope fall has reached your area already!
Yeah, you're right, there are a few other places. Sad to hear you don't get as much fun out of this place as you used to. It is too bad we've lost so many Japanese folks or folks in Japan, like Graham. Hope things get better for you, and glad to hear you will be staying!
It's still hot as hell here (in Aichi), but starting to get the faintest hints of autumn at night, so that is good.
Well, maybe it has been too long and too much to feel overly excited. Or maybe I just need some real change for a while. But I guess I am not the only one who feels like this, especially now when Hive is missing some real perspective. Anyways, not going to leave here, it already has become something like a hobby and a habit :)
