Seems to me @ned has just given up and decided to cash the fuck out rather than actually giving a shit about this blockchain and website.
GROW A PAIR AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE ABUSE OCCURRING ON THIS PLATFORM. YOUR TRENDING PAGE IS A FUCKING JOKE, AND YOU EXPECT THIS TO ATTRACT NEW USERS?
ALL OF THE MINNOWS AND SMALL USERS ARE GETTING ABSOLUTELY FUCKED AND HAVE NO CHANCE OF EARNING SHIT HERE AS LONG AS YOU CONTINUE TO ALLOW A SINGLE USER TO CONSISTENLY RAPE THE REWARD POOL.
MINNOWS YOU MIGHT AS WELL JUST CASH OUT AND LEAVE NOW, YOUR STAKE HERE IS WORTHLESS!!!
@ned I KNOW YOU WERE DISCUSSING STARTING TO SELL VOTES AND FLAGS - NOW IS THE TIME SINCE THE REST OF THE WHALES ON THIS BLOCKCHAIN ARE A BUNCH OF DEPLORABLE PUSSIES WHO WOULD RATHER SIT ON THEIR THUMBS THAN DO SOMETHING TO INCREASE THE VALUE OF THEIR HOLDINGS.
completely understand where you are coming from @berniesanders.
It is SO frustrating when I work on an article for 2 hours and it doesn't even make $1 and then I see people post an image and some gibberish and make $500 on it!
I mean, I'm not here just for the money, but when I put in a couple of hours worth of work to try and produce a piece of content that adds value to the site, it would be nice to get a little bit more than a buck or two. I'm not asking for hundreds of dollars. I'd be more than happy with $20.
It's getting very frustrating and I think it is the main reason why a lot of users are just quitting and withdrawing whatever Steem they were able to make.
I think it's sad and if word continues to spread, it will be harder and harder to retain current members and attract new ones.
Is this true? Should I not invest?
yes
