This won't be a long reply as I've just got home from work with a headache but I wanted to note something. I think the last thing I posted on steem was a reply to another of your posts in which I detailed my experience with garbage posts and "follow me" comments and how they've all but driven me away. I avoided names simply out of... not respect but I guess I'll use that word. Anywho.. point is you pointed out @izbing being a a purveyor of these types of posts and I laughed because s/he is exactly who I was referring to in my comment. My feed was littered with google image searches burying anything I was actually interested in.
My hope is that the pyramid scheme of shit posting will collapse as all pyramids schemes do. Long term success would require either a constant stream of new folks like me to fall into the trap (since I and others like me will only unfollow days or a couple weeks later) or a healthy following of people who enjoy google image search posts being spoon fed to them. If such a group of people exists so be it. A demand is being served.
Personally I don't think this kind of posting strategy is sustainable. I do however think it has the potential to drag down and potentially kill the platform as it enters its own death throes.
Well shit that was a lot longer than anticipated. Anywho, my 2 satoshis, now I need an ibuprofen or two.
Thank for taking the time while in pain. Grit. :)
I used some names as it has been going on way too long that way and I have 4 members of family here that are all 'victims' of his incessant spamming.
If the pyramid gets big and heavy enough, it will bring a lot down with it.
