Steem is an extraordinary social platform and concept that is at present duplicating our modern day society. There is a clear distinction between the "have's" and "have not's" which is clearly represented within its core. I like many others have continued to post, curate, vote etc but obtained minimal rewards; also I have read many fantastic posts that have struggled to achieve anything.
Then on the other hand you witness the mega posts with minimal content that are making serious "dollar". Yesterday I saw two separate two line comments on a post that had hit the $300 and still climbing!! Whilst I agree that success should be rewarded, but a two line comment? Come on!! Check the comments here? Well done to whoever profits from these incidents!!
Are we experiencing "herd" mentality? Is it a favouritism thing? Or is it simply "right place right time"?
I'm not certain if there is anything that can be done, maybe this will effect the status quo; maybe not?!?! Nevertheless steem will continue to go from strength to strength and by definition the devide will increase accordingly.
