I really didn't have a dog in the fight so to speak anyway, my vote was pretty much worthless and has been since I started here. I had no illusions of getting rich after I got here nor have gained any since. It is though another blogging outlet, you can read a variety of stuff depending upon what your mood is up for, there's a lot of interesting and amusing people here and I have to admit I spend a whole lot of time blogging for nothing elsewhere so when it comes to blogging my expectations have never been high for being rewarded monetarily as much as it is for the interaction. Yes it does surprise me being it wants to be a platform that gains followers instead of losing them they'd make such a drastic change to a lot of accounts that had a lot more skin in the game, how can they expect to gain more followers if they can't be trusted by people to see their gains just wiped away like that...it really doesn't add up. I know they claim they don't want to be like Facebook but just as an example can you imagine if Zuckerberg nuked the largest percentage of his followers, something tells me he'd never gotten to two billion users.
