I'm really amazed at how many people come here and think of yet another great way to use what they've built. Like I said in one of my earlier posts I love seeing 100 people getting ten bucks for their thoughts but I step back a bit when I see one person get 1000 for a thought. Maybe your idea will change my experience that much for the better.
Then again how would it feel to pour yourself out there for a week, and come back to find that everyone said 'meh'?
I guess it doesn't really matter either way -- we were all fine without outside affirmation the week before joining steemit and we haven't changed.
Or maybe we just worked cheap? Maybe a like or a favorite was all we needed to keep our fragile egos from crumbling.
Don't get me started, 'psychological needs' are my favorites.
