Yeah. Its no longer a "social" community again. Its now a "cliq" community. Everybody having there own clique... Doesn't make sense. The socializing part has been defeated
It seems that tribal instincts are deeply embedded in human psyche. We all tend to be drawn into groups, at an instinctual level. Steemit merely reflects what happens in real life.
Monetary incentives and opportunities are not evenly distributed in the real world, nor are they in Steemit.
If Steemit develops along the lines of the outside world, we will see an original anarchical and somewhat equalitarian idea turn into an ecosystem with spheres of influence resembling tribes and hordes.
It is actually a very interesting social experiment, and keeping a certain detachment while observing its evolution makes it fun.

The grouping mentality on Steemit is dangerous for the longevity of the platform, but we'll see how long it lasts.

I too am excited about seeing what it will become, but it definitely needs some work.
