I have read this five times trying to make sense of it all. You referred to the white paper and brought out this paragraph that would only happen in a perfect steem world. I believe this is why Dan left the project and moved to taking young dumb and full of a substances money, 4 billion for a matter of fact. Then he left that project to a bunch of kids that are doing some sort of new dangled dance. A matter of fact there are only 21 and I think they are all in on it. I have to say that I have lost a lot of trust in the original creator of this monster.
So here we are, the monster is hungry and self digests its sell. Eating hits own blubber, how disgusting.
So, Busy.org gives you the option to upvote your own stuff. I so happen to agree, they saw the writing on the wall. That is also why they have an option to make Busy your primary page.
All these bots, greedy people, self righteous demigods that would not even contemplate upvoting anyone.
Kind of funny that I have only been here since April and I am already aware of the stupidity of the whole thing. I had a conversation in the real world about Steemit, this also was with a female, so I was really intrigued to hear her take on it. She start the same time has me, but she kept her big bother accounts and involved a bidbot. She put no money into powering up and purchased no steem. She currently brings in quite the load of upvotes and followers. I check her page out, wow! Everything on her page was not even hers, it belonged to other youtubers. No flags on her account. Next, and you can find this right now, there is a page on here that has a 59 rating. On this page there is a a post with a full Steve Miller album. WTF....holy copyright batman...no down vote.
Those are two examples, and has you know there are lots more. I just did a live stream on Dlive pretty much losing my cool on the whole thing. I would say go watch it but, you may not be ready to hear my take on it.
It is refreshing hearing someone else with a high rep bringing up the issue. A lass, I feel that it is way out of our control. I really believe that Dan knew this and later we will find out.
The last paragraph my friend.......wow. I can only yell and scream so much because doing it in a mild manner seems to not work. A lot of people on here are not even past 25 years of age. So there brains are full of gamey time situations that promote the destruction of other human beings. This is because they are sociably awkward and have no remorse.
These kids are from the parents of my peer group. I do not have children because when I was in high school I saw that my peers were really f@cked up. The younger adults today were not taught manners, compassion, or empathy.
Sorry, for the downer but that is what it is.
I always say that I upvote everyone, but this time I will wait for the other. Sorry, been burned to many times on here. I am following you
Well, at least for taking other content / plagiarism it can be reported to e.g. @steemcleaners or @steemflagrewards who will take out the flags for you and reward you for it.
I'm not the only one vocal about these issues. Plenty of high rep folks talk about it. I would be pretty damn worried if it were not the case. That's why I'm still optimistic about the platform.
Really, you think @steemcleaners and or @steemflagrewards are going to do this to God @ned? You think @teamsteem will do anything about it? Do you think another witness will take the plunge.
Thank you for being optimistic, I am normally optimistic, these days all of the countries of the world are turning into communist states because the people are ok with it. I feel so sorry for my nieces and nephews!
Is it remotely possible to get an upvote from any of you out there? Unbelievable!!!
You see, I will give myself one and you one---freely! Even though your answer is quiet spiffy.
I will say one thing, I can see by this article that there are peeps out there that are just as concerned as I am.
Be well all, I hope I can come down from my mountain and be grateful
In @dan's defense he left because he didnt want to make the changes that enabled #rewardpoolrape.
That is all ned's doings.
Hello @freebornangel,
Disclaimer, I have not looked at any of your content. So what ever I am going to say right now would be like I was in front of you with a newspaper in my hand pointing at an article that goes toe to toe with your use of the term #rewardpoolrape. At least I think it does, that is because I have a 40 rating and a small following so what I say on this platform is referred to minnow bait. Here is the link:

I read it, it is sickening, that I have to read stuff like this after the fact of investing in my vests.
Take a look at my last two posts, you tell me if I am a poser.

all my video work on this platform, the ones that @dtube censored. Check out the lead one, it shows that I am fully 21 st century man. Is Dan!
Thanks for reminding me why i dont bother reading that guy.
His status as a steemit golden boy is cemented by his not having offered any evidence to support his affirmation.
The reward pool is being raped.
Any rewards gained by any means other than being voted by the community is raping the pool.
But if he said that they would pull his golden boy card and he would have to earn his rewrds rather than have them gifted by stinc, et al.
I read your content, dlive doesnt load for me, your 5 min video was going to take an hour to watch.
You will not find getting rewards easy here.
You dont kiss ass well enough.
Ill add you to my vote list so you can not have to watch your rewards round down.
Upvote your posts and i will, too, at 15 minutes.
This way you earn something, at least.
Any vote showing less than .03 will probably round down, so dont vote anything unlikely to get more votes, ie, your own comments, or any other comments really.
Stick to voting posts and commenting to get known.
Good luck.
See there, I learn things all the time. You earned a follow my friend. I see that you are just as opinionated as I am. I give you a deep Japanese bow, in respect for detailing my demise. The real people of @steemit please standup.
Today I shall raise my glass for I think I have found someone that just game me a clue. You see, for you....be happy.
I stretch my smile, and show 50 years of catholic guilt. God is merciful? Right?
Get out there and give'm hell.
Just dont expect rewards from the pansy asses that control them here.
You can get rewards but it will depend on you saying things folks want to hear.
