I believe that the most fun time using Steem/Steemit was during 2nd half of 2017 to 1st half of 2018. Especially in the Korean community, there were loads of famous people/bloggers moved to Steemit during this time. One of my Steemit posts was selected as top 3rd number of views, and it was pretty exciting seeing my Steemit article shared via a variety of platforms outside, attracting other bloggers joining Steemit.
The reason why this time was the most fun is NOT all about the price peak. It was all about the people. Don't get me wrong. I'm not talking about the royal people. It was the time when ALL KIND OF PEOPLE were gathering in Steemit such as royal Steemiana, bloggers, investors, gamblers, abusers, ... It was the most time when there were a huge amount of conflicts, fighting, argument, and so much more things were happening.
I strongly believe that attracting a large number of people who comes from all different backgrounds/needs should be the most important core rather than letting only royal people stay in this place. Why? It's so simple. It gives a fun, more value, more reason to be royal for some people, and more attractive reason to invest on my valuable money and time.
For this reason, I completely agree with the 4-weeks power down period.
p.s.: I invested over $40K my personal money on Steem, powering up, and never power down till now, and the money becomes less than $3K. People who need power down will do anyway regardless of the power down period limitation, and this SHOULDN'T be our core to maintain.
I completely agree with this proposal and reply of @project7 too.
agree 4 weeks power-domn ~gogo~
Are you in favour of this proposal or rather in favor of a dynamic power-down period? Because this proposal will only allow people to choose between 4 and 13 weeks. That's still far too rigid for the diverse culture we have here.
Just making sure I understood this correctly:
You didn't power down, because of the 13 weeks period? Afterwards, you're writing that "people who need to power--down will do that, regardless of the period limitation". Isn't this exactly the opposite of your reasoning?
I agree with the 4 weeks power down period (I'm sorry but I'm not aware of the dynamic power down period you mentioned). Thanks for your comment. I fixed some confusing words.
He should have used a double negative. What he meant is: I did not not powerdown because of the 13 weeks period.
As in, he kept his stake for Steem reasons, not friction reasons.
I completely agree to your opinion.
