RE: Witness Update #5 - Minnow Support Saturday & Thoughts About Witnessing

in #witness-category7 years ago (edited)

I would appreciate if you stop editing your comment and write your changes below my comment @SirCork.

In the end your post kind of sounds like crying at the batting box, and there's no crying in baseball, just gotta swing harder and beat the teams that play dirty, with skill.

This ain't baseball, also no way to win with skill when the deciding factor here is power (money & influence).

Sort:  

Some people make and try to make their living here with Steemit.

betrays you still didn't get the point.

steemit is a shitty blog site. It has nothing else at all to do with the steem block chain other than mass conflict-of-interest overlaps into witnesses and dev projects.

you try to make your living in steem, not on steemit. steemit can die tomorrow, and probably should. steem will be fine with zappl, dlive, dtube, dsound, busy.org, dozens of condensor clone sites around the world, and on and on.

Seriously, they are not synonymous. please stop spreading that misinformation by using inaccurate words.

The chain is decentralized, and anyone can step in with about 360 million dollars and buy the top 20 slots. Or less and buy one of them. And that is exactly what has more or less happened in a round about way.

The people who do not get that they are the same things don't so much do the damage, as much as are the damage.

And...

Skill IS the ability to gain money and influence. Ever play poker, it's exactly like that.

The money usually wins, but the guy with one chip left can still outskill him to the end of the game.

I'm doing it.

Yet people who do not even know what a blockchain is, make a lot of cash here by posting on their "shitty blog site".

As a content creator I disagree and I already said why.

Again, I know the difference between the blockchain and this "shitty blog site".

I agree with that.

if this is still your position, I can't make it any clearer, since I'm out of ways to say the same basic fundamental thing again.

That's just innately false and completely missing the point I've spent way too much time on already.

Steemit can die, and it won't be necessary for anyone to go on doing exactly what they are doing now, on dozens of choices of locations, many much better than this one already.

I guess I get what you are saying now. Because there are alternatives like busy, dtube, etc which are based on Steem we do not "need" Steemit because you can create content on the other platforms as well.

That should be correct now.

Bingo.

I edited my comment to finish it and correct typos and shit. I had no response from you or any others on the page before I was done.

I commented before you edited your comment, you just didn't see it because you were editing, no problem.
