RE: Steemians are their own worst enemy! STOP FLAGGING EACH OTHER! Start Up Voting Good Content Instead!

in #steem6 years ago (edited)

Flagging abuse should have been addressed a lont time ago, but it wasn't and rarely is. The result of runaway flaggers is that many good content creators have left the platform. Nobody appointed these "Steem Police" but yet they continue to think they own the platform, and some with hidden agendas (that goes for Bots also). I and many others have already powered down, and I am in the process of writing my final (and most scathing) post as I no longer want to participate in what has become a scam of a platform. Not quite sure? Then know this... https://justpaste.it/1jpbl

I wrote a lot about this over the last few weeks after HF20 fucked us up badly. I agree there is something going on inside the steemit hq that they are trying to control the platform. Problem is when all the people who power up leave the new people won't have any reason to power up and the platform will die. They can sit and circle jerk all they want but it won't change the facts.

I agree. I know many that have already left because of the unfairness of it all. Steemit was not designed as a social media network, but as a blogging platform. It has been taken over by pirates (bullies and bots) and in my opinion, many users are simply frustrated. I have already powered down and have left just enough (VP) to throw in my .02 cents worth from time to time.

Check my wallet ;) you will see a pattern among all dolphins and mini whales... Only the giant blue whales and founders are staying up! Minnows and plankton are leaving because they can't earn and get frustrated and the rest of us middle classers are just fed up with the constant changing of rules that FUCK us.. I wrote about this extensively and even went directly to ned's blog to call him out, which got downvoted go figure! Yet I was right and he later admitted what I called this HF20 bullshit to be! They now want to make it so you can't earn from posting, only curation rewards... So just make 2 accounts and circle jerk some more? WHO wants that? I invested a LOT into this platform between time, development, servers, nodes, teaching others, recruiting, and powering up only to have the rules changed over night and the rug pulled out from under me.. They are just trying to maintain their control of the platform and in the process making anyone with less than 1 million SP want to leave and/or give up all together.

Yup, one big circle jerk. Curation is totally dominated by Bots, so what is the point? This platform will be dead soon. And if not dead, it will be on life support for a long time. I just hope the price of Steem gets pumped by somebody so I can get rid of it on my exchange.
