@toddjsmith1979 The thing is: I don't want pity votes from dtube or curie or any other group. Because that is what they are. Over 90% of my income on Steemit come from people who don't know and don't care about my content. They didn't even look at it. They just have been part of a vote trail from a curie or ocd or dtube vote. What good does that to me? It's empty money that means nothing. The people on Patreon give me money because they believe in me. And it's real money they had to work for. That is meaningful. A pity vote is demeaning. I don't want that.
Yes, i should have put more time into the Steemit community. I know that is my biggest failure. But the thing is: I'm not a peoples person. I like to do things for people by creating things for them. I don't want to meet them online or socialize with them. I'm like a musician. If you like my stuff come and liste, but don't expect me to listen to every demo of every person how came to my concert in return. That's just not me.
They are not pity votes, LOL. That’s s your outlook and you’re welcome to it but calling them pity votes is kinda retarded in my eyes and might keep you in a box here, to each their own
Do you forget I’m a musician? Many of my big votes are from what you speak are “ pity” votes, LOl. You couldn’t be more wrong or closed minded. Good luck
