John McAfee is the biggest scam artist out there. He's been publicly and legally restricted from pumping IPO's by the Securities and Exchange Commission and this guy is only looking for ways to profit himself. I would not listen to a single word John McAfee is ranting about these days.
When our started the development of SteemBet Dice game, we couldn’t imagine that our game would go so viral and that SteemBet would become one of the pioneers in this field.
I think as long as the value of STEEM is low, resource credits are keeping spam lower than it was. It takes some established spam farms, with some RCs spread out among each account, to effectively get off the ground. Most can't survive.
However, that's not to say spam is completely gone, but it is much better, in my opinion then it was before.
However, as some are noting, it has done so at the cost of the new user, who doesn't immediately find a way through delegations, investing or otherwise powering up to raise the effective level of RCs. So, it's been a double edged sword, and at a cost to actual legit accounts.
What will be interesting to see is, how quickly the activity in dormant spam accounts where the SP delegation has yet to be removed will return as the price of STEEM rises. It will also be interesting to see how quickly Steemit Inc acts in their removal of delegations to said accounts after they revive.
The fact that Steemit has decided to remove the delegations from proven spammers, scammers and plagiarists is actually a step in a more effective direction, and will probably be the cause of reducing spam on the blockchain, even if it means those spammers will continue to find ways to open new accounts.
It would be nice if we could move to some form of Know Your Customer/Client so alt accounts could be immediately traced to the main account. I don't know how that would work without some folks feeling their privacy was being invaded, but I've yet to figure out what good someone will actually do for the blockchain by opening up hundreds of alt accounts. I know what they hope to do. I don't know how it really helps others.
it would be nice to get to a point where we can actually identify legit users vs. bots or alt accounts meant to form some flavor of farm. It would also be nice to then be able to up the RCs to the legit users so they can function until they have enough on their own. By knocking down spam, we've effectively cut off the new users ability to do anything, and since they can't really do anything, they can't really complain about it effectively, so then most people think everything is just fine when there's a growing, ongoing issue that will need to be resolved at some point, rather than being oblivious to it or ignoring it.
Off topic:
Oh I see so that's how you do the musing answers. So the link to the musing answer should be removed too? Or can I just leave it in and it still won't be considered as a duplicate?
I don't know how @abh12345 will treat the link. A while back when other apps like partiko started leaving their little "using partiko" blurbs that he adjusted the character length count for it. I'm not sure how that's happening now.
I've been removing it simply because no one's going to go to musing to read my comment if they're already reading it on Steemit, and since I didn't write the link, it's not really my CL.
So, I don't know if there's a right or wrong way here. Maybe Asher will provide a preference. Otherwise, I say, do what you feel best. That's what I've been doing. :)
Either way, somehow it's not being counted as a duplicate when Asher goes to pull the list. I've been keeping track of total comments for a long time, and most weeks, we're either dead on, or within a couple of comments of each other.
I think because the answer written on Musing generates a comment, but only as a link on STEEM, it doesn't duplicate even though you're copying and pasting the words from your answer on Musing. So, as long as you don't create a new comment, there won't be a duplicate, even if the link is left.
Yeah the Musing approach is good, you need to be rewarded for those comments!
A link/URL not relating to Partiko and a few others that choose to add their link on every reply will not be excluded in the CL count. So if you ever fancy bumping up your total... :)
I'm glad that you've said that because first of all, I don't mind it and second, I also thought so. I've read a bit and people also told me that I must grow my Steem Power. I also wanna help newcomers after some time and learn much from this community so right now, I'm doing probably everything I could.
It has been fun, helpful, and I am glad that I'm finally here but sometimes I worry that I won't give enough. I heard that first I have to grow myself and only then I can help others and start to see some value in addition. But I don't know much here so I'm going to listen to you and all those lovely people and do all of this things you've said.
I will check out red fish league to search for more information. I sure need a plan because right now I'm pretty lost.
I already have plans for posts because that's why I came here. I want to share my knowledge and learn from you, as I already said :)
Again, thank you very much for those information and I hope you have a nice day! Cheers :)
I'm now trying to grow my Steem Power with good quality posts. At this point some people would say that I don't have a lot of anything here on this blockchain but also, as you've said, I have to be persistent and patient. I just wanted to focus on a few things at the same time. Not 100 of them. So I got an advice from my brother to ask anything here. It sure helped and I'm happy that I know about Musing.
I don't know the whole story behind Musing but I will learn it soon
I will listen to your advice also and continue to do it this way. I just have to buy some more equipment so I can try to expand my variety of posts regarding arts and crafts. Till then I'll try to write about things I've learned and have an opinion about.
Again thank you for those information and I hope you'll have a nice day :) Cheers!
Thanks for a great answer. Just after I wrote the article I got up voted and earned a little money on my post which was really encouraging. I plan to go buy a little bit of steem and just keep working. Thanks for the tips.
No problem! There is a lot to it, but you should pick up on it pretty quickly. Just make sure you are commenting and interacting with people, powering up your SP, and putting out quality content!

But I don't think the pagan holiday was a world wide thing. It was celebrated by a very few. So I don't think that's why Christmas is as big it is.
