RE: Introducing the Steem Defender Bot. Designed to Protect Steem From Economic Collapse and Support Minnow Growth (Article)

in #steemit7 years ago

FYI - on Friday I'll have enough SP back to counter all of your purchased hypocritical votes.

I didn't expect that you will come back here with power. If this is true, then that would be great :)

Sort:  

I will be back to handle this post.

What do you feel when you "handle" these posts?

Why do you feel that way?

Are you "handling" posts for a perceived good, or to unconsciously boost your ego?

Many of us feel relief that someone with a large stake had the balls to do something. He's one of the few, if not only many times.

I perceive what bernie does as being good for the entire platform; and often times I believe they wait to do anything until many of us have complained publicly in chat.

The perception of this project in chat is far different than the hollow praise seen in the comments section here on Steemit.

This is not about feelings here, we're talking about business.

Even a decentralized system has certain rules. Since you set up an academy where you teach newbies how steemit works, you should know better...

Lesson 1: Don't excessively use vote byuing.
Lesson 2: Don't practice tag abuse.
Lesson 3: Don't talk about things you have no idea about.

You had 3 in 1. Congratulations!

This is not about feelings here, we're talking about business.

You may talk about business, but feelings are definitely also involved here. The way people are reacting is not rationally defined. There is a lot of knee-jerk reactions, and jumping on the collective bandwagon.

From what I know about system sciences and sociology, it seems more likely that a few big players on Steemit, such as berniesanders, have thrown an opinion in the collective pool, and that decides a significant portion of other opinions. This is why discourse is important, so we don't find ourselves trapped in a state of cognitive dissonance as our initial opinions are proven false and we unconsciously protect our egos.

You had 3 in 1. Congratulations!

Can you tell me what putting congratulations at the end there accomplished for you? Let me ask that same question another way: do you value your time? If so, why do you steal your own time from yourself by letting yourself be emotionally perturbed by things like this?

We at Earth Nation want to manifest a culture where everyone can achieve their highest potential. Part of this is providing education, and creating opportunities for others to succeed. A big thing that would really help everyone is the adoption of blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies. That's part of what Earth Nation is accomplishing with our systems. Consequently, our actions are going to cause a wider adoption of these technologies, which includes Steemit.

Steemit growing = Business, right?

Lesson 1: Don't excessively use vote byuing.
Lesson 2: Don't practice tag abuse.
Lesson 3: Don't talk about things you have no idea about.

These are interesting lessons. Can you tell me where they come from? What mind made up these rules?

This is not about me, it's about your piece of content. You can ask me 1,000 things about my state of mind, the answer is: none of your business.

While you believe that I waste my time commenting here, you should appreciate the given advices. There are a couple of established users (even the CTO from Steemit Inc!) trying to open your eyes since a couple of hours, and the only thing you do is telling us that you feel offended.

@ats-david just said it all with his comment.

I'm out.

You can ask me 1,000 things about my state of mind, the answer is: none of your business.

You're right, but I do feel compelled to reach out and help a person smashing their foot against the wall and complaining their foot hurts.

and the only thing you do is telling us that you feel offended.

I'm not offended. Actually no one in the office is offended. We're scratching our heads as to some of these responses: from a place of rationality, they don't make sense.

I can't speak about cryptocurrencies or the intricate details about what's in this article. I didn't write it, it's not my specialty, and I'm not addressing anything in this article. But, I am aware of a lot of other pieces in place that extend beyond Steemit and have a pretty good sense of cause-effect relationships

As an effect of the Earth Nation Beta Launch, Steemit is going to get a lot more users.

pls no

If these new users are anything like you and your "team," then I'll pass on the offer. Thanks.
