RE: When you are taking 30k a week outta Steemit Rewards and selling "Minnows" $10 dollar upvotes...(Op/Ed. entertainment only right?)
Still depleting my SP to flag haejin to very little effect ;(
Still depleting my SP to flag haejin to very little effect ;(
Why?
That's not a rhetorical question. Literally, I mean why?
If you are not putting your SP into voting up stuff that you want and you're spending all of your time and effort burning your SP on pushing down content you don't want, all you're really doing is making sure that other content that you don't want – other spammers, other low-quality content, other anything – is getting rewarded. You are literally, directly, turning to them and giving them a share of your SP for a vote every cycle. In your making sure that people who produce content that you want aren't getting the value of your votes.
Congratulations, you just screwed yourself.
Do you want to do something useful? Do you want to do something useful that will actually impact H-guy's bottom line, however marginal?
Take all of your VP, every day, and spend it on voting out content that you like. You will have exactly as much impact on things that you don't like as you would have by voting them down with the strange and unusual side effect of actually rewarding people who do things you do like, possibly and potentially getting more of it.
If you want to not feel useless, don't do useless things. Do useful things.
Seriously. This is not that hard.
Pls dumb this down just as much.
"Stop flagging. Vote shit you like up. Make good people happy. Stop wasting money."
I think that encapsulates things more succinctly.
You have a talent for this !
Can you break down the essence of war and peace in three sentences?
And then Tolstoy said..
Shit, barely anybody can write in this day and age.
Quantity over quality ought to lock my place in space and time down!
Then he handed his beer to his friend and sat down at the stylus.
It's sort of like making a million tokens without worrying about finishing the last two years roadmaps. Same concept.
ha ha probably
actually, SuperFreshMeat! how's this,
War Or Peace?
fin
Probably Tolstoy just took a hella pretentious take on "Why can´t we all just get along ;( "
Soooo, when do I get my dead horse?
Apologies...receive my posthumous equine?
Still on my way riding it rite to ya doorstep!
It's Russian literature. This is easy.
"Life is hard and dirty. I have to do terrible things. Life remains the same."
That probably sums up an entire undergraduate degree and Russian literature in three sentences. With five sentences, I could probably get into serious distrust of any hierarchical governmental system and the boiling resentment of a self-selected peasant class, but that may require a few more words. Definitely a couple of more periods.
You´re onto something here.
Start breaking down books nobody ever touches anymore. Aint nobody got time to read 10000 pages anymore.
I wanna show off my immense intellectual superiority to my friends ! Let us leech of your talent!
I'm going to have to start a Utopian project that accepts donations for that level of service providing.
Because if I have to wade through the "classics" of worldwide literature to turn them into Tweet-able soundbites, I want to get paid.
Thank you for being the Protagonist, like I stated, half the SBD's on this post will go (Transparency Post will be done on this ;) ).....
You did a fabulous job in helping TeamGood <3
are you going to spend all day on this post, go for it, wish I had that kind of freetime :)
you may want to know full stories before you start sticking up for the next phases of this , I sure as hell woud not be defending some of what some this stuff is connected to,but go ahead, you're a Mensa level so are a LOT on here.... :) if you continue to write essays all day you get a prize for participation here on......steemit
Wait a minute. Are you suggesting that spending time communicating with other people about an issue you care about is wasting time?
Physician, heal thyself.
I want to be clear, I'm not defending anyone. I'm simply pointing out that your reasoning is crap and you should probably be a little embarrassed by it. The goal you've set in the means by which you are implicitly pursuing it is ultimately going to be self-destructive, and you should know that.
I'm simply saying that you should be honest about what you want and what you mean. I really don't care how much other people are pulling out of the system because I recognize that it is inherently slanted, from day zero, the white paper, to reinforce self-reflective efforts to generate higher hit rates from the reward pool. That is to say, self voting and clade voting are designed into the system to be extremely rewarding, the more so as you gain more SP for leverage.
Acting outraged about that is ignorant.
If the defense of your position is "well, you probably shouldn't bother trying to communicate with me," you should at least be honest about that. If the worst and most scurrilous slander you can provide is, "you're too smart and using too many words," I'm probably just going to cop to that and wonder, publicly, why you bother being here at all.
You can't defend yourself based on the arguments you presupposed. Or won't. You can't defend yourself based on critique of your philosophy. Or won't. And you won't actually engage in discussion.
What is it you're doing, then? Is it just making a post so that rah-rah people can dump their up votes on it so that you can take some money out of the pool? Isn't that exactly what you're criticizing?
I don't mind hypocrisy just so long as we're honest and upfront about it.
is it really so, does the white paper stipulate that self voting is the focus of the system in any way?
the way I see it theres dividends and you can use votes to help attribute it, your voting power determines the vested interest that you can sway.
people tell me I'm wrong, shrug
The WP also speaks about sweat equity. I think there is a considerable amount of tension between the two concepts. They tend to stand at odds with one another. One person's habitual self voting can serve to undermine the sweat equity generated by another as I understand the terms to me. It would have been good if the devs went into greater detail.
Dood, it's a call to action for "those in the know" and apparently you are not. More to come, U should grab your cereal bowl, and sit on the sidelines.
@lextenebris AS these replies (lines) get a bit convoluted
I apologize profusely for using ideas which are too complex and sentences which are too fraught for you to make your way through. I will endeavor to use smaller words and less complicated ideas going forward.
A call to action for "those in the know." That's hilarious! Good one!
Have you heard of @steemflagrewards? It's in its infancy rn but starting to take shape.
Eventually, @supermeatboy may be able to get something back for doing what he loves.
That is flag the shit out of hjin
As long as the community is behind it, we can make it happen
