@tradeqwik upvotes our customers. Customers are welcomed and encouraged to vote for each other, but that is completely optional. We recognize that people hold differing views on this so feel free to do what works for you.
Tradeqwik is currently opted out of the Steemvoter guild mainly to save our voting power for our customers.
Thanks for pointing out the typo. I have corrected it.
Just wanted to make sure that it was known that not all of us like the ganging up on the rest of us to take more money from the pool.
It's good crapitalism, but it excludes too many folks, imo.
It should be noted that I disliked curie when first presented with it last august.
Not all of us are happy being corporate drones, nor like the world created by corporatespeak.
The rewards pool is there to reward posts. People have always organized in various ways to get more leverage as a group in order to accomplish something. Tradeqwik is not encouraging the downvoting of anyone's work--that has been done before by people in a ganging up fashion. And once again, participating in anything where we encourage upvoting is optional as opinions vary on how to best direct the rewards pool funds. Thank you for being a Tradeqwik customer :)
I'd think of it as a hot potato.
Yes, folks can band together for mutual benefit, doing so has a long history.
I simply think that encouraging it may be less optimal than just allowing affinities to organically work their magic.
I am a tradeqwik customer because I think it will make great strides in freeing the population from common shared traits that have worked out poorly when applied to the management of large groups of people.
FUD works, banding together works, but each harm more than they help, imo.
