My remaining hope is in the tribes. Our stakeholders have shown us they do not value content on any level.
They are not helping to build, fight abuse or protect the investment in anyway.
I powered up everything I got until about a year ago. Now I am holding my account steady. I know that everything I do here will be devalued.
Not just by the bidbots, that is only a small fraction of the over all problem which is...
A lack of vision
too much stake in the wrong hands.
no commitment to content
no connection between those making the decisions and those using the product.
I can't shill what I would not buy. I am holding, but I can't in good faith tell anyone to buy steem.
Steemit Inc is going to sell another 800k steem next month.
Haejin is going to self upvote
So is transisto, and traf and kevin
Many others too.
Now add the bidbots on...
Yep, I can't buy Steem and I can't ask anyone else to either.
It's clear now, this damaging behavior, when combined, with proof all around highlighting how destructive it is; it must be intentional. I refuse to believe they're moronic, even though it appears that way on the surface.
I can easily find a few outsiders who would be interested in something like CCC. Now if only the small time shit posters could at least respect the tags, try a little harder, earn a little more, grasp the business side of things, stake, and help set the standard for the next generation instead of bringing along the I don't give a shit attitudes they got from some of the folks you mentioned there.
Yes, on CCC I am moderating and we spend a lot of time doing it. One challenge we are facing is undoing the shit that was allowed previously.
Help us out by pointing out any problems that you see. It is my fav. Tribe and I would even like to market it.
I'm doing SPORTS and yes, making people understand that 'previous work' was bad and upvoting your 'sisters' comments 50 times in 5 mins is bad sportsmanship / bad for the tribe, is hard work.
Some tribes don't like the idea of a little centralisation, and they will fail imo. As as Steem has proven, people can be shit and as Mr NoNames discusses, crap in the shop window is no good for anyone.
Arts and entertainment is valuable. Having a variety all in one place is even more valuable. The product doubles as marketing, when shared outside to bring clicks in. Traditional marketing also has a broad range.
I've been generating a shit list and if I need help cleaning things up, I know where to go.
Spot on.
Welcome to the nightmare.
Can I get an n2, 4 post soft cap on rewards, and a 500mv whale enforced influence cap?
Not until stinc dumps.
Golos, here we come!
For a place that has so much potential, I feel we accomplish very little. I honestly don’t know what the solution is but I’m kinda with ya in the ol’ buying Steem department. I was fairly hung ho over the past year plus but it’s hard for me to justify putting more money in with what has been going on...or lack thereof.
People genuinely do not seem to give a shit about content at all here. I’m just going to keep trying to slowly build my nerd community and one day hope we are large enough to support each other and thrive. But yeah...I’m not as optimistic as I once was which makes me a bit sad to be honest.
A tribe could be a plan. Numbers are low at present and I see many tribes pretty empty or full of scammers but if you got your airdrop right... I wonder if CCC - #creativecoin would be suitable for these weirdos who like to dress up? :P
Yeah the end goal is to have a separate hub or place to call home. I think having everything lumped together can hinder things. I brought a friend here and they weren’t a fan as they said the feed was too jumbled. So maybe a tribe could work.

lol... While it is creative... I think they should make the weirdo tribe. :) (all in fun)
I can’t wait to show off Asher’s cosplay pics. He didn’t want me to show anyone but I can no longer resist. He is a part of the “weirdo’s”...don’t let him fool ya.
Coming soon to a blockchain near you...

Hey!! can I be a co-founder of the weirdo tribe?
...or the pauper janitor at least? };)
Yeah, have you considered a tribe for your group...? It's a niche for sure
