Shit Getting Crazy & Good People Are Leaving As A Result ..

in #steemit7 years ago

FYI ..

Look around, check the blogs of some of our previously consistent quality posters .. can't find anything recent?

Here is why!

  • They are sick of the politics.
  • Sick of the belly-aching
  • Sick of the self-declared leaders claiming they are the only one's doing anything to benefit the platform, and everyone else is just a parasitical worm?
  • Sick of people spitting out idea after unrealistic idea, with no ability to implement a damn thing.
  • Sick of being pulled into battles between the above.
  • Sick of the usual suspects sucking up all of the rewards with consistently crappy posts.
  • Sick of the inaction of STEEMIT Inc. YES! You have both a role and a responsibility.
  • Sick of being tossed around by modifications that are not at all well-communicated to the community - only STEEM Geeks can understand this shit. Oh yes, I know - we're STILL in BETA! Sorry, that does not help.
  • Sick of watching the stream of announcements from soon-to-be-competitors, while we hear nothing from our own headquarters. Sorry, the marketing announcements were bullshit - planning to pass off the task to unhappy users, is not going to do it! Dip into your pockets and buy some fucking ads!
  • Sick of watching the price of STEEM remain totally uninteresting. Even if it does not go up substantially, a little volatility would be a nice change - this usually comes by way of 'real announcements'!!!
  • Did I mention the gangsters stealing from the pool, day after day after day after day ..?

YOUR GRIEVANCES ADDED HERE ..

Sort:  

Well the pool is empty, the separation is there and things are moving at a constant pace, so yeah many don't want to keep up, our accounts are getting diluted, so why chase a never ending wheel, I think steemit is going sideways, because of the broken up community left out to rot, we have nothing to do, nothing to know what has been done, basically it's a dark room with no lights, so a marketing post once a week helping things out is way past it's time and with the horrific HardFork we had, not that there is anything wrong with a totally unstable transition, but people do mind, if some of us don't(I myself am bored for one, busy with my own projects and timesinks and a bit let down since nobody cares :D )

You forgot a couple.

  • sick of posts saying that Steem and Steemit is going down the drain and people are leaving, why they too are leaving, with lots of pomp and sad face 🌪
    😤 🚪 😭
  • sick of the entitlement for votes, payouts and good will 💸 🤑
  • sick of people misunderstanding how it works and ranting about dictators, self styled leaders, etc. 👿 😾 👮 🤡
  • sick of shortsightedness 🤓 💩

Don't forget the reward reset fiasco

Cool with me. Peace out to the thinskinned, crybabies.
If you closed your mouth you would make more. 'Whales' put in more time/money and have the most say. Deal with it.
Now you can go around demanding this and that but in reality we got here to today with underground marketing tactics. I, myself have contributed to this type.
Whale up if you think you have the nerve to be a 'leader'.
Go check your paystub from your real job. The Fed steals from many people everyday.
So.. your move, pussy. @steembriefing is who I am referring to.

Only 2 of the top 25 accounts involved any financial investment

Like all cryptos, early miners get large amounts if the coin is a success. This is because it is only by their mining that the coin can succeed. So there is nothing unusual about this situation.

I always like to remind people that the first Bitcoin faucet gave out 5 BTC!

.... reality? Which facet of input provides value to steemit.com?

I don't understand the question 😶

What is the justification for the steem distribution a year ago? Investment of time. Yes?
Why then does the investment of time which goes into the fuel of steemit.com - the content not get recognised? I am not suggesting that it should be recognised to the same extent but, it is this investment of time which feeds the whales and dolphin curation rewards. Without it the price of steem goes to zero. Can you see what I am saying?

cool with 'you'? lol
Golly, I am so relieved! :)

The steem people scare easily but they'll be back, and in greater numbers.
