I am dedicating this post today to @frugalgamer. I am not clear on when I started following them, but the reason was clear. They provided me with gaming content, free give away information and other shenanigans that I actually like.
I have read their posts since the beginning of following them and I have not gone ans said to myself, hmmm this is kind of suss because it looks like they are regurgitating content over and over.
Even when I see pictures that looks kind of similar from his previous posts I can see that they are telling a story of a game they are playing. The game is the Atom game. A crappy game from my perspective and in those instance where I think they are shit, I just read them and move on. I don't go and downvote something that I know they would've spent time to create and post.
Some of us find it hard to write or create things. Look at me. I suck at it. In fact I hate typing things and putting pictures on a post. Far out I have to basically boil inside to write a good post because frankly I am a face to face kind of guy. But I put posts here on by blog when I have a passion with what I am saying, writing, typing, but it does not come easy. I don't like it, but on the same note I get lost in the moment and next thing I know I type the night away.
No not the night away you idiot, you only post in the day time because you are mostly pissed at night and you all know how that looks right? points at you the reader
Well, ok the day time away. But let me not get lost into a tangent here. I am just concerned because I asked someone why they downvoted their post. Their response was they are jut following the big boys and therefore the recipient of that downvote should appeal to them. *I thought this place was a free platform where you can post anything and everything you desire. A wild west.
Well we all know we are all human here right? I'd like to think so. I'd like to think also that we all have a stake here. A stake to how good this platform will be. I get into heated arguments all the time but for me I like that because I can see that the person behind the keyboard is there to engage because this is my Facebook, I used to roam there all the time but I had it with them just earning for my attention at least here when I get your attention I can get some of my time back. Wether it is just a split second or a long time. I know that I can get something small or big.
So I ask you. If you are following the big boys in their use of the big stick are you able to look at the platform and not wonder if their decision is even justified.
We all have haters and we all have lovers. I'd like to think my haters love to hate me and the lovers hate that they love me so much.
Lets just all get along.
I have use that line before as a title and I ask you please as I appeal to your humanity. Can we all not get along.
And if we do end up with hair pulling passionate discussion about what ever we feel like voicing our expert opinion, well we at least know we have a beating heart that pumps blood and lets us know we yet live to see another day.
