RE: Jerry Banfield's Idea On How To Charge $50 To "Help People" Get A Free Steemit Account

in #steem7 years ago

I wrote a post a couple days ago about the Jerry types and the harm they do to the platform in response to @timcliff's 10 dollar Steem post. These people are a major hurdle and the 'numbers' they bring in are generally get-rich-quickers or, the desperate. The desperate are welcome as they will learn but the GRQ crowd is a major reason the retention figures suck.

I resteemed that post, it was dead on accurate....

Much appreciated. It is amazing he is still here.

Yes, no doubt... and he played it exactly as we all knew he would. After he got called out for jerrycoin, he retracted, apologized, and then went into the family pictures and prayer post.

The Banfield effect is cyclical, so watch it happen again in 2 months so August... he will put his foot in his mouth again, remember this "premonition". ha!
