RE: A Guideline Reminder from the Church of Piglet

in #piglet6 years ago

Absolutely. I'm not knocking delegations per se, or even all of their actual use. Delegations could have been great, and sometimes they still are, as you well know ;-), but overall, looking at their actual use, I think Steemit would be better off without them, as they mess up the social/stake/accountability/curating aspects of Steemit through bidbots and in other ways. And that's a pity.

Sort:  

Bidbots are just an emergent element of this platform. I think we need various ways to use our SP and delegation is very useful to me. Of course these tools can and will be misused. I see some saying that they should get rid of flagging too, but that's also an important tool.

Pricks are also an emergent element of this platform, as are uninterested whales. That doesn't mean I have to like them or support what's keeping them in business 8-P.

Now some people will think I am calling you a prick. That's funny. Could be just my sick sense of humour, though.

We have freedom here and people are free to be pricks. I'm not calling you one either.

Damn. Where's the drama in that?
