I'm not sure Hive will ever be 'fair', but I still consider it a place of potential. We are stuck with the fact that a few people have a lot of power and may choose to use it against others. I don't know the full details of what happened to you, but it seems you are trying to make something here. With such a small community we need people who will try to build here.
I do think Rising Star deserves more support as it has built a cool community and supports musicians. Unfortunately some have been driven away by things they have seen and they may tell others not to bother with Hive. That does us no favours. Maybe those doing the downvoting think it was justified, but I've seen far too many people leave. Is it so bad if some people make a few bucks posting here?
I've also seen people quit very noisily whilst attacking various others. That is not healthy either. That can just make you more enemies.
I just want people to get along and build Hive into something more significant. It can do a lot of good.

I understand your point. I'd even say, seeing this, who would leave their HP hive when someone deletes your rewards without telling you? Who would like that?
I'd like you to read the post in detail, and I'd like Marky to do so too, but I see he's not interested in the network.
