Hey there!
Thanks, I indeed had a fantastic day ^^
The time that it takes to put a blog together that involves this much, should be justly rewarded, but that seldom happens.
I think I was talking to our friend @dandays about it yesterday, and it's a long debate. I still don't know what to think. I like to play it cool and say I don't get affected by pays, upvotes, but I do. I do feel a little bit bipolar though, one day I am just so invested in the craft itself that it becomes what really matters and don't care much about the outcome of a post, and the next day once it's posted and the endorphin boost fades away I start doubting and look for confirmation through upvotes and praises.
We had that long conversation with him (or at least I had a long monologue haha ) about our expectations of our crafts, and I think it's the same for everyone. We all want that recognition, even a little. Especially when it's something that took time, efforts were put in, it means there's an undeniable emotional dimension to it.
Yet you see some real BS posts that may take an hour and they rake in the $ and upvotes. That seems to be the way it goes around here, it's not what you do it's who you know.
I truly thought of it as well, and it is correct; though I feel that users that are very active, creating user interactions should be somewhat rewarded so it feels fair that they get the attention and the votes.
However there's still "circle jerking" happening and we all kinda turned a blind eye, maybe we all scared to make some enemies.
I saw people blowing their rep and account just on some stupid arguments with more powerful users.
I hope you had a great day :) cheers
It does feel good to get a pat on the back and that goes for most things we do in life when we invest our time and effort.
Well, as we know he's back and doing exactly what he had done in the past, post great stuff. It was not too long ago that @dandays was experiencing a lot of down votes and it became very frustrating for him. I'm not sure he even had any type of argument with anyone, but the big boys decided that it was time to make his life miserable as they continuously downvoted his posts.
