RE: The State of the @NoNamesLeftToUse Address: Last Call for Alcohol

That individual has now admitted they do not like more than 50% of the content on this platform.

The actual sentence:

I currently disagree with more than 50% of the reward allocated to current authors and therefore would prefer the reward I downvote be burned instead of being moved to equally undeserving people.

This post was meant to be a technical discussion about a suggested improvement to the reward system.

Thanks for stopping in.

We're all surrounded by things we don't like. We don't watch the shows on television we hate. We don't listen to country music if we only like rap. Some people like Ford, others like Chevy. In the entire world, there will always be more things we don't like than the things we do like. Some people collect things, others don't.

I think you're asking too much if you'd prefer most of the shows on television lose money and die just so you can enjoy the shows you like. If you don't like certain music, simply stop torturing yourself and listen to what you like instead. There's no point in smashing all the other cars except for the ones you like. Not much sense in burning down all the trinkets because you prefer empty shelves.

Your experience on this planet is up to you but I suggest simply enjoying the things you do. Most folks will do the same. Less problems.

For one, I don't like arguing. I'm happy you came here to talk though. I think it's a terrible idea to increase the strength of your downvotes so they can penalize more people in one shot, simply because you don't like more than half. When actual abuse gets downvoted, then what's being returned to the pool isn't going to what you enjoy, so you're attempting to potentially take away from them as well.

Supporting what you like is one way to remove rewards from posts you don't like. Don't even have to downvote. And that doesn't even require a hard fork.

If you have money to spare and are looking to increase that amount you shouldn't be wasting your time and energy with back and forth like this.

I can teach you to trade and give you trades for nothing

It doesn't take me long to type out a few thoughts.

Steem created a problem early on. People were afraid of these instances of bullies and bullying. If they had a legitimate concern, they'd remain quiet, over time things got worse.

It would be incredibly unfortunate for Hive if:

  1. Hive can't grow up and be professional.
  2. Hive can't grow a spine.

The majority of members don't want to see other members being pushed around. I don't like seeing it. Hive can succeed when stakeholders are acting responsibly. Until then, we'll continue to see this petty nonsense take place. Based on experience, I assume things will get progressively worse.

When the free downvotes were implemented, many feared they would be abused. Some did start abusing them, others went on power trips. They were made free to help stomp out instances of abuse since on Steem, abuse was going unchecked in most cases. Instead of solving a problem, they've created a new problem. Now I ask you: How can we solve the new problem?

Someone would have to at least point it out, right? That would be a good start. They would also need proof it exists, correct?

Solving problems is a good thing. This problem I can't solve alone. It's up to Hive now.

Sounds like you are confused as to the main purpose these are used for

Saw you complaining about money gave an offer for a way to make

You think they will ever change printing money for themselves and dumping on hopefuls for free?

I wasn't complaining about money. That's stated more times than I care to count now, all over the place. Since your goal here is to take things out of context, and spin it all to suit your narrative, then argue mute points, this conversation will turn into the waste of time you were once concerned with. Therefore I shall be taking your advice and not take part.

Sorry I should have looked at your account closer,
Your clearly part of the problem

The problem, or your problem?

We're all surrounded by things we don't like

I stopped reading there,

I said;

disagree with ... reward allocated

It has nothing to do with like or don't like, It's about reward going out vs value coming in.

Like; not like. Agree; disagree. Do folks not like what they agree with? Do folks disagree with what they like? Maybe the confused ones...

Hive is close to losing another investor (me) due to your response and recent bullying. 99% of what I earned on Steem stayed in the wallet, for nearly four years. The same long term plan was set for Hive. I've already put thousands into Hive of my own money. I don't believe you now when you say it's about reward going out and value coming in. You give me no reason to believe you.

By all means, dump it and fuck off!

Another massive instant downvote? Why?

Instant upvote, Instant downvote

Targeting me because of the actions of others who've done nothing wrong? Clearly you're running out of excuses. I didn't create the five minute window or the bots.

You get instant upvotes as well, so does everyone else. So all you've done today is prove you're a bad actor and I was right for calling you out. You're clearly bullying me. There's no denying that now. This case is textbook. I've been right every single step of the way.

Now you can't harass as many people. I can post more or stop, meaning I have full control of your downvotes. If I don't post, you'll want to keep your downvote power charged in case I do post, so you can hit due to being emotional and acting out of anger. In the meantime nobody else will be getting hit and if they do, I'll have some work prepared which will knock your downvote power down, leading to it taking longer for you to go on another rampage. I could drain it completely. No point in what you're doing. If you were curating honestly, your behavior wouldn't be as predictable. I wouldn't hold it against you or think any less of you if you decided to take the honest road. I realize you're struggling inside now, I don't take your actions personally and I will not use your weaknesses against you in order to hurt your feelings, since I believe bullying is a waste of time and energy.

You've proven everything I've said about your bullying. This post talks about how you've only given yourself two options. You've chosen option one. I described what happens when one engages with the bully. I've only been honest with you, yet you're becoming increasingly frustrated, and that has nothing to do with me. I haven't been an ass. I never once instigated, only responded. You're a bully but you've failed because it doesn't bother me.

The post states the bully always looks foolish in the end. If I leave, you'll look foolish. If I stay you'll look foolish.

You could simply leave people alone but then you'll feel like a loser in the imaginary battle you've created within your mind, so you're pretty much screwed, and you did it to yourself.

I wish you all the best.
