I really want this platform to succeed, but it would seem to me that the only way it will have a future long term is that content must be maximized. Comparing d.tube videos vs. YouTube videos, it is clear there is a long way that all content creators must go to be competitive and gain eyeballs, so having a platform that is filled with bot comments, etc. isn't helping anyone long term. As much as anyone wants to make money, we need to increase quality here. I'm up for doing whatever I can to create great blog content, and I'm going to start to create great videos. If anything can be learned here, the quality of @joeparys video content is a level we should all strive to get to, and ideally surpass. Doing that and we will have billions of viewers all generating more income for quality content. Bots are not going to be a long term strategy in my mind.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
Quality is important, but scamming people isn't acceptable. Joe is telling people that they should delegate to him to make money when in reality, those people should be voting on content they like with their steem power instead of handing it over to someone else to profit from.
The bid bots only really serve the bot owner, not those who delegate to them. So delegating to Joe's bot is one of the worst things a Steemit user can do. It removes the ability for a user to vote on content they like, which is how this platform will grow. Everyone needs to be able to vote on content they enjoy so that the rewards are distributed fairly. If we all delegate to shitty bots like Joe's then the rewards only go to the people who sell votes, and people who buy votes.
Joe goal isn't to help new people on Steemit, he's promoting how people can help him make more money. And buying Joe's courses will only do one thing, they'll help Joe make more money. He isn't a Steemit expert at all, he's just someone that's bought enough Steem to make it appear as if he is an expert.
Check his old content out, he tells people they should use DTube as a tag on DTube videos because it will increase the likelihood that DTube will vote on the videos... the only problem here is that DTube force you to use DTube as a tag. It's mandatory, so Joe was telling people to list the DTube tag twice... After that he went on to tell people to use a tag that is only used by people who are accepted members of a certain community... which was incredibly poor form. The guy doesn't know nearly as much as he pretends to. His advice is basic, and often wrong. I have no idea who would pay this guy for advice. He's not much better than Jerry B.
Have you approached @joeparys directly with this? My comment is simply about the quality of videos posted here, and has nothing to do with this individual other than to cite that his video quality is high and we should all at least aspire to reach that level of quality in our productions.
I sure have. I even offered to proof read his content to make sure it was accurate. He wasn’t interested.
