I just love it when...

in #palnet5 years ago (edited)

I just love it when I see posts by high lvl accounts (often 70+) saying how much they love steem, how much a revolutionary platform this place is, how the price will eventually go to the moon blah blah

And then I go to their wallet only to see they barely have 500-1000 steem power. Often, even less than 100 and a power down active.

Fucking hypocrites.

Sort:  

A red heart and a "fucking hypocrites" is a pair made in heaven!

A lot of them got that rep by using bid bots. Rinse and repeat.

I have encountered quite a handful of accounts that happened to be here from the early days or milked numerous curation groups (e.g. steemstem and utopian) again and again to achieve their rep. Despite their huge love for STEEM and how awesome it is, for some weird reason they have decided to keep only a tiny fraction of their auth rewards for sp. :)

Yup. They love it because they cashed out.

Don’t forget the trending all-stars.

Agree with you, there are plenty of them who dragged the wallet while telling others to buy

I keep using steemit because I want my stories in one place. I hope, nonetheless, the steem price and rewards increase in the future, by magic or whatever, I don't care.

Greetings from a far-off land.

what is your far off land stranger?

Venezuela...

Ahhhhh, the land of socialist wonders!

I spent eight months in Peru, but then I decided to get back and die with my family.

Hopefully not anytime soon?!

There are shit loads of these accounts you talk about....quite a few of them are even considered professional 'steemit preachers'....pretty hilarious! Some of them have even moved on from 'preaching', only to engage in the same behaviour they once were outraged about LOL.

Well, i was also powered down because i intended to completely leave, but in the end stopped it.
Still don't like the way that works but can't ignore some interesting project's and that's why I'm still here (not that active anyways).

Well you don't fit the category i am talking about :P Probably half of the people I am voting atm are powering down, despite the fact that it makes zero monetary sense from my side (since i hodl) to vote them. But they don't go around preaching how steem is awesome and that people should buy now because in a couple of months steem will be back to gazilion dollars a piece.

Indeed I'm not fit that category, still powered down and i made some mistakes.. anyways it's all in the past, just looking forward.

Seriously, one of the things I hate on STEEM is the tribalism and almost cult-like devotion that someday the price is going to rise because MAGIC, and the people that sell this crap... This is why a lot of the steem users don't understand why the price is falling or why the price increases, most of them don't even understand the mechanics of STEEM or the market...

The price will rise once we build some businesses with cashflow around the ecosystem and get some actual cashflow to buy the token... So far the only progress I've seen is some add revenue, which I hope sooner or later will increase and make steemitinc buy the damn token from the market and reward ppl for their utilization... and some businesses like homesteader that sell stuff for STEEM and steemmonsters

I never used a bidbot to get my rep up, guess that is why it isn't a bigger number, I used steemstem though, but stopped after seeing that the trouble was too much, I might go back to it in the future...

STEEM IS AWESOME! STEEM IS THE FUTURE! STEEM MOON SOON. BUY MY BAGS WHILE I POWER DOWN TO THE LAST PENNY.

LOL

I see you talked to Captain Obvious this morning ;)
How is he doing?

He wants a !BEER

Come to think of it.
One advantage of the constantly selling Steem lovers is: it keeps exchanges busy making money off of them.

They help promote Steem! And they pay for it!!

Keep promoting Steem by selling! Moar! Harder! Faster!
