Thanks for the post @littleboy and i hate to disagree with people i feel warmly toward but..... : )
I am not buying into this argument one bit.
What will really make new people leave is seeing people being personally attacked when they find success.
@markymark guy said that the calculations were done after two days of voting. they calculated and extrapolated some may be scenario of what someone might make if ........
the 6 % looks like it was complete nonsense, i checked it myself after i first saw the claim and was not even 1%
no there is something wrong with this picture.
A simple mistake perhaps
When your success is being upvoted by one account with super high SP to rape the reward pool, this is not success. Look into how much money he gets from his followers and how much he gets from his friends. He's raping steem to cash out thousands of dollars daily and people like you let him do so by buying into his lies.
No hard feelings dude, I just feel really passionate about protecting the blockchain which is why I will always argument against people like him who are clearly exploiting the system for their personal gain.
On the topic of "lies", is the 6% figure a lie or not? If it is, why was it done, and should we just ignore it?
Bernie may be right, but the way he is going about this is fucked. Just down vote haejin and stop with the bullshit posts and the collective punishment of his supporters. Just fucking do it and don't carry on about it. It's childish.
I haven't researched the 6%, but my opinion wouldn't be affected either way. It's not okay to rape 0.1% of the pool either, because if 60 people do it then it suddenly does become 6%.
I do agree that Bernie is really childish in this drama though. He should be flagged and followed by every whale to flag in the future if he doesn't stop the rape. The daily posts are no use to anyone.
Yeah, I think both sides of this argument lost the plot a while ago.
