Who has the right to dictate what is right or wrong here in a decentralized network? When you find that person you let me know :)

That person is the community that I talk out of quitting every day, because they see this and assume producing quality and doing the work will be futile. Perhaps you forgot YOUR first day, but they come in and live it EVERY day.
I have 26K of long tail posts @sircork - I'm the #1 poster on Steemit! As Sinatra once said, you gotta know the rules before you can break them :)
Apparently you only read yourself, Mr Zero Followed. But you might want to take the 20 seconds to look up above and see what contributing to the platform looks like. My dad used to say, "some people like to talk just to hear their brains rattle" and that's what not promoting anyone but yourself, and then bragging that somehow makes you a community hero sounds like to me.
Still awaiting a valid argument. Still not holding my breath.
That is your choice to unfollow Sir. I certainly won't hold it against you. As David Bowie once famously said "I'm not here to make people understand, I am here to live my life." [An urge to create is never wholly selfish ... whatever that creation may be.]
I have to follow y'all. I get WAY too many people questioning posts like this not to be well informed about why.
Long tail/short tail I've seen and done it all @sircork. I never question why on here. Look out for my Steemiversary Daily Dose coming soon ... its been a wild ride of a year!! :) Steem on my friend!
Man, I do appreciate the respectful tone we have both managed to keep. I literally just got this in between our banter though... It's about the 3th or 4th time I've had the bittersweet joy of this kind of recognition in a month.

The thing is, the people I am speaking out for, are in chat, aware of my involvement here and my dms are full of "these are the posts that make me want to quit"
And you and I both know, if we don't have user retention, you don't get your doting audience, and I don't get to help build the future.
You get that, right?
Also, nice Bowie and Sinatra quotes. Got any original ones? :D

My cat put forty lines of the letter "G" into discord last night, then rebooted my computer and lost half my latest unsaved partially finished graphics. I feel your pain.
The network has the right. I could downvote to express disagreement on value ... I don't want to have to though. I would prefer if everybody just consider the community and the effects of their voting.
I am in full agreement with your @beanz :)
Thank you for lending some credence and "lift" to my response @beanz.
