@ronaldoavelino, I am one of your “unproductives”. ☺️ I know for a fact I got your vote that day on one of my other types of posts. This is the downfall of the vote trails.
The truth of the matter is steemit is social and it earns folks money. I like ssg posts, and I post about ssg things when I have something to say. But other things interest me as well, and I post about those things too. ssg people might not be interested in my dog posts, but maybe members of my other groups (steemsugars, teamusa, etc)are. It is all a balancing act.
My friend, it is not possible to call unproductive a person that almost everyday posts at least one article with ssg theme. I read today your post about the zoo and I loved it. What I think should be purged are people that post three articles with recipes on the same day or three articles about religion with zero articles about ssg. These people exist. These are extreme examples but it is easy to find people that post with some regularity but the last ssg related post was a month ago.
To tell the truth, I don't care about them. It was not my idea to make purges. However if they want to purge, at least have a good motive and I don't think that lack of frequency is a good motive and I am simply offering another motive.
It can be a slippery slope to try and start enforcing this way. Most people are casual or part-time stackers before they become hard-core. If we start kicking out the casual or part-timers because they have too many other interests I think SSG fails. We need pathways.
We just need a good set of rules and everything else will fall into place
There will always be grey areas
Just to create a little havoc, I have noticed that @hgmsilvergold has not posted anything in the past months. Will he be purged? Is it fair to purge the creator of our community just because he is not posting anymore?
@hgmsilvergold is a lifetime member.
His lifetime, not mine
My view is a bit different. In my eyes there are no sacred cows and there are no leaders. I've seen some of his old stuff and I think he would similarly agree that he is not above the law. But that's ok, we're allowed to have different opinions. It what makes us strong :)
