Hi Steve, it's been quite a ride so far. I didn't know you were on tsu too. How interesting.
Anywhere you get humans, you get abusers.
The need for consensus on what is the best way forward is difficult but not impossible.
Consensus is not something that many humans are used too.
Being raised in a class based hierarchical society and all the chains that the system imposes on us takes a supreme effort to. One recognise it and two challenge and overcome this built in bias.
It can be done and the dutch seem to lead the field in consensus building.
This gratitude challenge is a great opportunity to talk about the positive impact steem has had on some of us.
When's the next UK meetup? 📷😋
There are greedy people and there are desperate people who will abuse Steem. If it can scale up them they may have less influence, but growth has been slow. Tsu was an interesting experiment. I made some money there and donated a lot to charity. Steem also opens new opportunities. I want to see how that can pan out.
I've suggested a meetup near me in Bedfordshire this weekend, but not many people have confirmed they can come.
I did the same on tsu. Gave all my earnings to that earthquake fund?
I don't know if they got the money or if it was just another elaborate scam?
I'm not far from Bedford. Where & when are you meeting?
The meeting starts at Arlesey Station at 3pm on Sunday. I'll put out another shout to see who is coming and will confirm if it's going ahead.

Cool I'll be there if it goes ahead. 👍
