Some of most common advice passed around here to new members has a dark side with a hint of the brutal truth.
I was told this and you were probably told the same.
"Comment! Get people's attention...yadda yadda yadda. Try to get the attention of a whale for a big vote."
Every minnow hears that, so now even the minnows don't help each other out. Too busy trying to get noticed.
Who's giving that advice? The ones reaping the rewards.... So why did they say it?
Don't get me wrong here, it's not all bad, but look where it's leading. We need to work harder at being a united community. Those top dawgs cannot and will not ever be able to vote and pay attention to everyone and the minnows need to know that the next minnow is just as important.
I've heard that. Comment section does make things interesting around here.
