Is it being fickle, or is it doing what they see fit with their time and stake? Or, better yet, is it users who care backing off, or the spammers and plagiarists?

It's not that the rewards have been reduced. They're largely absent right now. There have only been six accounts upvoted by musing since late Saturday night. Not faulting them for that, since the revoking of the delegation left them with around 6% voting power on stake roughly 11 times less what it had access to. Can't do much when that happens. It is what it is.

I know I'm waiting for some kind of statement from jonching after announcing he would check on the delegation and get back to us. So far nothing. That's probably because Ned or someone at Steemit Inc. hasn't answered, but regardless, it leaves us in limbo.

There's been activity on the musing discord channel, mainly by users, speculating about what's going on and suggesting what musing should do about getting more SP. I wouldn't call that being fickle.

The fact remains, though, this is a dApp, sitting on a cryptocurrency blockchain. It's existence is pretty much based on users getting some form of reward for their questions and answers, if the community managers/curators feel they warrant it.

Otherwise, there's quora, and hundreds if not thousands of forums and chats that people can go and answer people's questions. What makes musing unique isn't the interface, or the format, or the people coming to volunteer their time and knowledge. It's the fact that they can be rewarded for their opinions and knowledge.

Whatever community musing may have is still here, waiting to know what's going to happen with musing. In the meantime, I'm sure that many of us are still looking for the best ways to grow our stake. I think there's room for that, and forming a part of a community.

It's only been a couple of days. Let's see what happens when musing starts voting again.

Well said, I agree with you!

About the community still being here, or what musing might be doing? Or waiting to see what happens? Whichever, I'm glad. I'd hate to think everything is over on musing before it's gotten off the ground. :)

All of it actually :) I guess we just need to be patient, things are going to get back to normal soon, Ned just need to work a few things out.

Very good points mate! I'm happy it seems to have stopped the scammers and mass posters in their tracks and of course everyone has personal choice but loyalty still stands for something in my books so my personal support (sadly just a small token) will be to the people who battle on regardless.

Best wishes and thank YOU fortaking the time also mate :-)

Yes, you too mate! I genuinely put the social first and reward second. You're not going to make huge incomes without shady behaviour so enjoy the time and consider the rewards a bonus. I was just playing devil's advocate a little lol

Rewards are always a bonus.Nothing guaranteed, but I am hopeful the delegation will be back soon.

me too mate, but until then, we carry the torch onwards lol
