This is absolutely fantastic!
I do remember feisty discussions with @prakashghai at the very beginning when he joined.
I understand those valuable concerns as well as complains by many users on steemit but ......why not be thankful?!
I wish autovoting systems would not exist either but they do and I also take advantage of one (sometimes when I don't have enough time to curate personally)
I can't complain because I do ok but if I start comparing with some others, the so called superstars , I am sure I find lots of injustice and unfairness. I refuse to compare! I prefer to focus on my personal approach and even though some of my posts might not be all that incredibly interesting for most "techy" guys or the boys from #price chat channel, I was able to build a nice, loyal fan base with overwhelming amounts on comments.
Sometimes I think they visit my blog because they know I pay and upvote for high rewards.
I am lucky that one whale put me on his steemvoter bot. Otherwise I would never have enough rewards for the amount of hours I put into steemit since June 2016!!!
We can't complain about injustice unless we find ways to fight it with our "human" soul, heart and brain. No bots can do this on a long run. They can boost your rewards for a while but I think I will succeed one day big time with my approach because our SP is rising and soon many more will have the "power" to give good rewards and will
#payforward #payback!
I hope I can prove what I mean one day.
You do not need to compare yourself to anyone, you are the superstar. I started following you when I first joined steemit, because you were real, and I have seen nothing to change my opinion of that.
And you have a lot of soul, heart, and brain.
This is one of the most intriguing and wonderful comments I have ever read since I joined this platform. You have no idea what your words of kindness and appreciation mean to me right now and beyond...I "bow" 🙏 and thank you!
Humans like you make it well worth to stay and continue to be nothing but "Myself".
