RE: Bitcoin (BTC) Evening Update: Short Term Target is $12,112 to $12,306

Not sure what you're talking about. If you're talking about the function of the rewards pool distribution, that's not steemit inc. as that's a function of the currency itself and would have to be changed via a hardfork and buy in from the 20+1 witnesses.

If you mean the mute function, I have no problem with that functionality and see it as a useful tool. I just don't see it as a solution to this current problem.

If you are calling our downvoting a fight, I think you might be getting the wrong picture. This is how Steem is supposed to work. It isn't fighting. We all have the ability to collectively decide where the funds in the reward pool go. We do that through positive voting and negative voting. the funds are not allocated until the end of that voting period. It's not fighting, we are just placing our votes.

My personal reason for voting this way is that I do not feel the rewards for these posts to be an accurate reflection of the community at large as the majority of their earnings come from two individuals and their current take has more than rewarded them for the content they produce and trend. Since 09 December, 2017, they have been rewarded, by conservative estimates, more than 492,318.47USD. That figure is based on the current SBD price which is about the lowest it has been during that timeframe. It also doesn't take into account that the percentage of SBD payout differed during that timeframe often paying as much as 85% SBD which would have made the USD dollar value of those much higher. It could easily be triple that number. .5 - 1.5 million in three months? Yeah, I think they've done pretty good for themselves.

Sort:  

It is hard to talk to a wall - when everybody listens only to themselves.

There was a limit invented so that there are only 10 powerful votes per day available. Everybody is using it and do not complain, but somehow you are different than others.

Fight with the root cause and not the consequences.

Tell me about it. I feel I am addressing your concerns as you have communicated them to me. I couldn't really do that without trying to "listen" and understand the point you're trying to make.

Any limitation also applies to negative votes. They draw the same power. Many use it, including haejin. You seem to be telling me not to use my 10 votes a day. Are you?
