Also, we all have a say to buck the trend - I read the new posts - albeit by understanding the rules of voting and rewards.
Today is only day 11 and I have already learned a lot by not limiting or focusing on what is trending.
As the saying goes: It is what it is. and also, if you cannot beat them, join them (or leave them).
I have purchased Steem before I joined here and I transferred them here to Power Up. I have purchased more and will continue to do so and then Power Up some more.
There is a group: Make A Whale that I want to join - it requires 500+ SP and reputation of 70 and above. That is my goal here.
Anyways, Nice reading. Do what is in your control and ignore the rest.
All the best!@zeitlini - I agree with you! Mostly! However, life is not fair - and never will. Even with the bots, this platform is still far better than the other mediums.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
@freedomshift # Thank you for you well thought out advice. I agree with you about the world is not fair. And that we have to work with the stystem, but why not have a choice to list your posts without bot's unfair advantage. A clean slate for new steenian's to put their posts only against others who choose not to use bots. Giving control to others is a dangerous state. IMO. Thanks again.
Anyone or anything that can protect you or me from anyone or anything else could also be used against us and oppress us - that is the price of freedom - the existence of undesirable actors and behavior - which came with free will after Adam fell.
My advice again - do what you can control and not worry about those that you cannot.
Blog, generate valuable content, comment on other's blogs and comments, be positive, vote (within limits), learn the rules here, grow your presence and SP - keep all that you earn here to Power Up and add if / when you can and become a whale.
All the best!
Thank you again for the advise you have gained a follower. Maybe we can grow together. All my best,
Check out my post:

It includes a link to an old post that shows how votes are used to reward people. It also has my questions about "last day voting and the people that call this an abuse - no one cared to answer my question.
Thank you again I will.
Also, see my post:

Check my post about trading for STEEM to power up - I finally did it @ 263 - 268 STEEM / ETH.
I have powered Up and my vote is now worth much more: $0.11.
All the best!
$0.11 for each of my vote is with 100%. I am now at only 74.35% of my full SP value.
I just upvoted ya.
All the best!
I Am happy for you freedomshift. Hopefully I';; be there some day soon as well. But for now I will just be envious. Thanks for the upvote. :)
