RE: The main excuse for malicious down-voting is "Over-Rewarded Content..." What about the account making $10k+ PER DAY in spam comments?

I have no clue what you are talking about here. There is a new token on the way, which I have briefly mentioned when people accused me/us of doing nothing to try to improve the situation for content creators who are counter MSM narratives. However, no-one even mentioned it in this or any other relevant threads and I haven't seen anyone shilling it. I think your accusation here easily applies to you more than anyone else here.

Sort:  

Huh? I heard there's some token in the works to be traded for pob or something, sorry I don't care enough to check what exactly you're up to. What token may I be shilling? POSH which I've only spent my own money into to drive more traffic to our front-ends? You know, something you guys haven't managed to do in 5 years?

I wasn't saying that you are shilling a token. I was referring to:

At this point it just looks like they're grabbing onto any opportunity to attempt to make themselves look better

The VYB token is nothing to do with the people of informationwar, it's a project run by @trostparadox. I am happy to promote it and boost the chances of the success of the experiment, that's all.

FYI, most of the people I know in the informationwar space have brought quite a lot of people to Steem/Hive over the years - myself included. How many of them are left? In my case, probably none - why? They tell me themselves that it is due to the cost/benefit | risk/reward ratio not being high enough for them. I work with some of the best known people in Europe on this topic outside of Hive, but they gave up on Hive quite quickly. Given that the main 'truther' whales on Hive (I don't like the term 'truther' as it has an absurd negative connotation that seems to have been introduced by people who reject truth for their own reasons) are the ones driving BY FAR the most traffic to Hive (via Hive Engine and Splinterlands) it is quite bizarre to hear you make such false claims here.

Where are those people, mate? All of the content I've seen has close to 0 interactions, literal newcomers get more traction than whatever you lot have been rewarding over the years. I'm not even going to mention how close to none of you have any stake left so not only didn't you bring in any people that chose to stay but they all fucked off as well with the value they most of the time got unfairly seeing as close to no one cared about their content.

Hive is an investment, the risk to reward ratio is in speculation and many who aren't morons see that and don't think short term and have done well for themselves. If literal immutability of text isn't worth their time since that's the main reason they cry over getting banned in random places then I doubt showering them with rewards no matter what value they may actually bring is going to do Hive any good and it shows it hasn't after years of "uninterrupted(lack of downvotes)" unfair rewarding.

A comment was left on the whitepaper post. I perceived this as "VYB is boring, I can't be bothered to read about it", which is fine, although the transaction of attention was made and interpretation of the comment could go other ways.

Maybe he was going on about another token that will synergise with the POB/VYB token, I'm sure there are a few. Not sure which token though, I'm only aware of VYB being available for direct POB exchange.

ps. rowan is a legend.

@acidyo muted me many moons ago (which is a shame as his input about curation could be valuable, if he unmutes I'll reach out), replying to your comment and theorising feels like a good opportunity to rebuild a bridge.

Hopefully, layer 2 can continue to create opportunities for discussion like we can see here in this post thread. We can identify the pitfalls and hazards more easily when more experienced Steem/Hive accounts weigh in.


All the best for the year ahead @ura-soul, best wishes!
