Most of these people were supported when it was going great. As the support dwindled, they could only think of themselves and how they could keep raking in the money, forgetting the new guys who earn nothing. Newbies won't stay. And that's the reason why. The older folks are posting crap and getting all the money while some new guys post quality and get nothing. It's depressing. They won't stay!

I agree, while Steemit has always been hard to get ahead and while today's problems have always existed when I got on here back last June there seemed to be much more of a community feel. I felt like everyone was working to grow adoption and bring people on, people were trying to bring people from their local communities on, there seemed to be a genuine effort to support new people and make them feel welcom here and today it seems its every man for himself and also more about gaming the system than moving the platform forward, growing adoption, encouraging new people etc.
I think we as a community need to do more to recognize people who do little things to help Steemit taht sometimes go unnoticed or that aren't rewarded monetarily currently.
