RE: WhaleShares: Forked Up Beyond All Recognition
So basically instead of making posts, they just keep the inflation for themselves. I don't see how that would encourage people to do much of anything.

why would you post a shit "account preserverence post" if you dont get an additional reward for it unless someone tips you from their daily reward?? The only way to get additional rewards is by being tipped by someone who thinks your content is valueable. So less spam posts, more room for actual content creators waiting for my tips.
Why would anyone tip anyone?
As Anthony wrote, youre doing stuff ass backwards.
You devolved your platform. You didnt improve it or advance the tech.
You reverted it back to a POS system.
Tipping isnt a core feature of any system.
Tipping is something you can do with any crypto currency.
You just put your wallet under a post.
You detached content creation as a means of token distribution from the platform which will centralize the platform even more, which will keep content creators away and your userbase will dwindle.
Honestly, this change is extremely indicative of how clueless your dev team is.
Its actually pretty amazing.
They see abuse and spam and their answer is completely getting rid of the system essential to the platform.
Crazyness.

Why would anyone tip anyone on twitch or on patreon or even on youtube? What do you mean we didnt improve or advance in tech? Yes its more like a POS chain now, well i would say its a mix of UBI+social platform. Has that been done before? Isnt that new and innovative? Or does eveything have to be steemit for it to work? How do you know its a system essencial to the platform? Might be essential to steemit, whaleshares isnt steemit i might add.
Is whaleshares twitch or patreon?
Are you guys that deluded.
Thats utter nonsense.
Firstly the culture is different in crypto and tipping is at a much lower level since everyone sees them as a content creator and less of a content consumer.
Then theres the accumulation factor in crypto that is at the core of every token which discourages giving away tokens in a bear market.
And secondly.... What even is the appeal of whaleshares now?! Lol.
Why would i ever post there over posting on Steem or any other platform?

Dont put words in my mouth that is not what i said, i answered your question "Why would anyone tip anyone?"
I know crypto culture ive been here quite some time. "Its make easy money wherever you can" thats most crypto users, whats the big difference between tiping and voting someones post? How is that far from the truth, by voting a post are you not giving away your free daily allocated money that you can use to vote yourself to others? And by recieving vest rewards and than using them to reward other via a tip not exactly the same thing but seen from different eyes? Bear markets dont decide development, neither does price, Currently whaleshares has no appeal, why? Because its full of scammers and spammers trying to make a quick buck, what will be the point of posting spam to vote it if they are already giving me my daily posibble reward pool rape beforehand and i can choose to tip or just keep accumulating? Why do you post on steem? Whats so appealing?
Theres a huge difference between tipping and upvoting.
Its surprising i would need to explain that.
Theres a whole philosophy thats at the core of steem built around the act of upvoting.
And you guys stripped all that from whaleshares.
Well you should have countered spam instead of destroying your own platform and devolving it into a barebones PoS.
When given a choice between:
Accumulation will almost always be the choice.
Thats not even a matter of contention.
Youll litterally have the 5 witnesses and a few devs going around tipping folks a few cents.
You guys mutilated the platform. You gutted it like a fish because you were afraid of conflict and werent willing to deal with abuse.
Its a sad sight, especially since i was pretty active there for months.

Once again you are talking about the core of steemit, im talking about whaleshares not a steem clone, a different platform. The whole philophy of steemit is the act of upvoting, idk if we are on the same page, talking about whaleshares not steemit. On steemit you are given the option to accumulate (self upvote your own posts and post so you can upvote it) or tip (vote someone elses post with your free allocated mana money) Id rather have 5 witnesses and the devs tiping folks a few cents than a whole platform posting shit just to mine. We mutilated steem and are doing with our platform as planned, We are dealing with abuse right now,. You know whats a sad sight? Not being able to understand that we are not removing anything simply changing things around and renaming the same stuff, and you cant even understand that.
Please do answer why do you post on steemit? Whats so appealing?
Upvoting on steem is the evolution of the act of tipping and whaleshares decided to remove that system, devolving its platform as i said before.
But good luck.

All you know is steem, so this would be outside your comfort zone.
Why would you post "account preserverence post" with downvotes?
Seems a problem created by your the previous hard fork that didn't really exist in the first place.
Sure-
Look at how fast HF21 (free downvotes) cleaned up Steem. It isn't perfect, but spam has dropped dramatically.
Whaleshares is not steemit marky and we are not aiming to be steemit 2.0 or anything near steemit, we just used the steemit code for the initial clone that is all. I believe hf21 was a correct step for the better of steem just like i believe hf4 will be the correct step for whaleshares. And i think your a great guy and want to do good for steem, but theres no reason in comparing the two, they are not the same.
