so much circle jerking in these comments. This voting guild is centralized, and will not last long on a decentralized platform. I will be patient and watch it all fall apart eventually, as steemit implements it's plans for growth in 2017.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
The rewards that Steem Guild allocates are extremely decentralized; 350-400 authors are being supported. Curation projects like Curie, Steem Guild, Steemtrail, and Streemian are primarily responsible for the long tail rewards distribution these last few months, which a handful of large whales simply cannot achieve on their own. Curie has managed to decentralize the workflow also. I suppose we could try to decentralize the task of tracking 400 authors, but it might be messy at the moment. The day when the guilds fall apart: man, I will look forward to that, when we don't need them anymore. Then I can go back to writing, which is all I ever really wanted to do. :)
when steemit has about 5 times more active users than it has now, all those projects will be in the past, and those names and titles unrecognizable. This tiny community of less than 3000 active users will continue running around in circles blaming and praising each other until then. It's good there are not much outsiders looking in at all this, they would barf.
You have a point.
Haha. I can't disagree. It's one reward pool and we have basically one main feed right now to argue about. Plus, there isn't much for bored people to do, aside from write long articles or complain. But I hope that will change soon as more features come online.
I'm in the comments. It's in my nature to thank people for looking out for me. I thank my mom when she invites me over for a hot meal as well. If I can't thank people without being accused of doing something wrong, I don't know what the hell to do anymore. I don't get this attitude. Why drag everyone down...
down?.. I think circle jerking is more like a pleasurable experience for those involved, and a weird one for those who only watch, like being at a party uninvited
To each their own. I don't think a circle jerk would be my idea of fun, but if you find pleasure in it, all the power to you. I can't help it if you're standing in the bushes watching everyone through the window either.
Now back to reality. All I did was say thanks. That shouldn't be a problem.
*I'll just add this in: The people on that list are just regular, average, everyday Steemit members. They didn't choose to be there. What good will come out of finding reasons to despise them as well? If some pack mentality forms around this hate, and people decide to stop voting for those on the list simply because they are on the list and others don't like them being there, what happens to them? They don't deserve to be punished by a centralized pack of bullies. Will those finding reasons to despise this group be there to vote for someone who decides to opt out due to these peer pressure tactics? I personally doubt it.
to anyone not on the list, the list looks like members of a gang, it's a small community, publicising the list is a bad idea
I think it's easier to just ask questions and get answers rather going straight to the worse case scenario and believing that right off the bat.
This just in: @nonameslefttouse profiled as a gang member by Steemit police! (Just messing with you, but that's how dumb that sounds.)
