This old chestnut again. It will never end because some people are going to do what some people do to others in any area of real life.
The general public have been so conditioned to accept that life is a zero sum game by our narcissist 'leaders, friends and associates' that few people are left sane enough to question the status quo.
Narcissists are everywhere these days gaslighting people to try to control their tiny little meaningless lives.
I think the downvote wasn't used enough on many accounts that flat out robbed the community of $10's of millions.
We all know who they are and some are still here wearing sheeps clothing or using alt accounts. 🤦♂️😂👍
I'll have to write a blog on this topic at some point as it's almost mandatory to keep reminding people that this is real money with a few real people screwing everyone else. Timely reminder.
I'd be interested in who you think are using alt accounts to further farm the rewards pool or what you consider farming. Will throw you a follow!
Much as I'd like to name names you know what will happen? I don't want to get into flame wars over something we have virtually no control over. It damages everything and solves nothing and who needs the drama?
I know it's good for getting engagement but it's not the kind of engagement hive needs.
People are going to be people. It's been the same since the beginning back on the old chain before the fork.
If and when we meet up in person sometime I'd be happy to discuss these things with you.
I'm pretty sure that you must be aware of the accounts that have been farming in a variety of behaviours for as long as this crypto thing has existed.
Can we change human behaviour? I doubt it.
Whilst I am an optimist, experience with people has taught me otherwise.
Do you think that new people joining the platform will see this kind of behaviour acceptable. What kind of people will it attract?
I know that we have to talk about it but i don't think it's going to change anything long term.
Thanks for the follow. I don't post as often as I used to. I'm taking a long needed rest. 👍
This is a great question to be honest that I've often fought for. I'll be making a video or post about this soon as it touches on a few subjects and I think communities has helped shape that for the better.
