I meant low quality post and content. There's plenty of accusations on him online and we can't know for sure what's going on. This post is more about the current voting system and how wrong it is to give attention (and money) to mediocre posts.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
The flaw in your argument is that his posts are not low quality. They are well-written, carefully edited, easy to understand, nicely formatted, and are effective in connecting with the reader. If there is no steak to his sizzle then I guess people might lose interest and his rewards will stop, or they might not (after all, the later Twilight movies and books still did quite well).
I couldn't follow the case you were making against him in your post, which doesn't mean that the accusations aren't true, but it most certainly does mean that your posts are not as good as his.
No they are not, at least not 15k worth, I will take that to the grave if I have to. But if you want to justify that, go ahead.
I didn't make a case about him. The case is against the voting system. English is not my native language so I'm trying to do my best, maybe you can understand me perfectly but there are cultural differences that sometimes doesn't translate that well.

Incorrect. In fact I have thousands of accounts (keep that in mind when you are advocating for more "fair" voting) but I only vote with two of them, smooth/smooth.witness. Any other bots you see copying my votes (and there are some) are not mine.
I explained the reason I didn't vote for this post and it isn't because it is critical of Steem/it or the voting system (I have voted for critical posts before). It is because the post does not effectively present a clear message. It is not a high quality post in my (subjective) opinion.
If English is not your native language, then start building a steemit community IN YOUR LANGUAGE. And for fuck's sake, stop with the entitlement and jealousy crap, the world is unfair, the system is broken, yadda yadda yadda. It's really tiresome and pathetic. Figure out how to be successful and get it done. Stop trying to drag everyone else down.
Yeah his posts may be well laid out but 10k dollars? If people like Jeff are getting all the upvotes and the average Joe that writes a good article gets 2 upvotes and $0.00 then how can this website not eventually implode?
Because our friend @smooth here is busy voting him with his 24 accounts but not voting this or many other forgotten posts (this already has too much payout if you ask me, but not enough votes because it should be trending so everyone can see).
To be fair, there are plenty of amazing and honest working people here @jesta @piedpiper @mynameisbrian @stellabelle @roelandp @cass and many others.
They still don't deserve those obscene, gimmicky payouts but I do love them!
