I can up vote myself OR change my profile pic.. HMMM what a great social platform... Update your account, up vote someone else OR just self up vote and fuck everyone??? Sounds like what this new upgrade wants! If you choose to change your mind and agree this upgrade is BAD and encourages selfish behavior by all means hit me up! But hey you want to support this bullshit I can't even wrap my head around!!! I would rather just hand out the fucking STEEM i earn to minnows than try to play by these new rules... It is INSANITY!
THINK... "You ran out of RC power up..." OH WAIT... Powering Up is a TX and that costs RC... SO its a catch 22... So you are told to just fuck off... A new member will just leave... But hey you can loose people like me who have $100ks invested here to then loose the 1 out of 200k people who even listen to you in "real" life to join here after they wait 3 weeks to get approved... THEN they are told they have to SPEND MONEY!!! Man you think people are going to do that??? Go tell people they have to pay for their account and usage and the people who actually are invested you kick off and basically talk down to and make feel stupid... REALLY smart move! Its genius! Those of us like me who have REAL $ invested in STEEM leave and you get 0 new users! Sounds like the platform is fucking DEAD! Oh and the guy who made it @dan LEFT too for this very reason... I hoped @ned wouldn't be this dumb but I was naive and should have left with @dan 3 months ago! Oh well live and learn...
Handing out your steem to minnows doesn't sound like a bad idea at all. I say go for it! That would be awesome.
Much of the problems you mention new members have to face only exist if people are unwillingly to step up and vote. Refusing to do so is intentionally holding them back. Now, more than ever, curation is important. If people aren't willing to do that, who's to blame? If you'd like to see them succeed, do something. If you don't want to see them succeed, do nothing.
I'll try to help people as much as I can, within reason, little by little. I'm not interested in telling you what to do.
yap you are right , it hurts to post again becous my rc droped to 79.65%. 10 comments per day is my limit I gues.
sorry I reply to wrong comment. here goes another 20%:(
If you're making the conscious decision to intentionally waste your resources, so you can find reasons to complain, I'm not going to feel sorry for you. You could have said something worthy of an upvote from me or anyone else reading, received an upvote, or more than one; from there you would have more resources than you do now PLUS you'd be setting yourself up to have even more resources to use in the future because that vote would lead to more SP. This isn't rocket science you guys. Please don't respond and waste more resources. There's no need. Minnows who actually put in effort will succeed. Simple. Good luck to you.
Chil out:) I didn't want to reply to your comment so I apologised. Was just wanted to see if @bigdeej is right, and it is. I am not living in my dreams that I am a great writer like some of us. Some of us are not lucky to join among the first or have friends with lots of steem power, or be noticed by a whale so I am using bots to boost my account and i can upvote this comment if I want to. So don't worry about my RC. And one more thing, your account wouldn't be worth as much as it is if there was not a mass of minnows and not everyone of them is a good blogger. And with the settings that are at the moment on steemit there won't be a lot of new people joining to upvote your posts.
I respect my following. It's a good bunch of people. There will be minnows and I'll be there to help them when they visit, as per usual. I'm good. Have a nice day.
Because I respect you brother and I don't want you to waste your time... Look at this, this is the "business" that just got dismantled.
I think it will bring this whole thing into perspective
fun fun fun
I wasn't being serious. I knew he wouldn't lift a finger to help anyone. I just wanted to show everyone his true colors and I thought the best way to do that would be to spin things around so people could see his reaction. Actions speaks louder than words. Someone yelling about being helpful would help. I was just peeling off the mask.
I have 7.6 steem pover and my rc is 97.30. Let me see how much will this comment will cost me.
