How were you pressured by tptb to say more than you felt the need to?
And that would have been enough as well
Your posts are like getting a single piece of really fine chocolate in the mail. We readers live in the sublime.

Hehe...a long time ago in a far away land...Steem....in the year 2019.
Drama was at it's height.....There were arguments within the witness community that spilled over to the Community at large...with loads of posts taking sides of all kinds of issues and down votes galore. Users were being disappeared, witnesses were leaving or being disappeared and in the fall out....loads of users left....including Bleujay. My thought was to quietly leave before losing my reputation score in case I was downvoted....due to low word count....or not approved subject matter. It was a crazy time.
....Then Hive came on the scene.
Bleujay returned in April of 2024.
To this day there are those communities and even individuals that require a word count to their satisfaction in order to receive a vote. Which of course is perfectly fine really....one at least has the freedom to decide whether to accommodate or not.
Thank you for your kind query, Bleujay
BTW ...Such a lovely photograph of the trees and reflections....Well done!
Ah, I hadn't realized you were newly back when I first came across your account. I don't go hunting for new accounts to follow, but do look at the posts that my followeds reblog. I wonder, now, who reblogged that first post of yours that I saw.
Using word count to determine value is a great example of humans being capriciously greedy for more. They don't have the capacity to see the simplest of things.
I can't complain that tptb dragged more out of you. I wonder what would happen here if you posted only your principle. I think you would need at least a photo for us to be left alone with your thoughts.
Oh so true....I should have added that it has all turned out for the best....I have learned many new things in order to market my core interests....make sense. ^__^
There are many from the early days who could have reblogged my post and still do....very kind of them....happy to hear that is how you discovered Bleujay. I am always grateful for reblogs.
