I appreciate your reply I agree sometimes I’m pretty blunt in communication and I thjnk I held a lot of that in from those early days in the official steemit help chat room and the things that I witnessed and just got to the point that I needed to express and share what I saw so many new members be put through in the early days. People valuing posts isn’t my issue at all. I have always seen some posts do well and others not. You see a hot dog make 130 dollars and an involved post get 1 dollar. We have all seen that we might have a little laugh but that social media. Maybe they gave to the community in other ways, made someone smile etc. My issue was and remains a group of witnesses deciding to go around and ‘re value’ posts that people chose to give to. Not just mine but other creatives and charities. I personally thinks it’s a precident I don’t wish to support and it’s completely dampened any enthusiasm I have for this platform. If it was random people fine but when it’s people in charge of the direction of the channel with huge influence and they are deciding which, posts it’s ok to do well and which not. I notice many of their friends never getting flagged as I said, it doesn’t feel like a platform I can put serious focus on. I always thought the beauty of Blockchain sites was that creatives and others could create from pure expression and eventually get compensated, or the materials funded etc so it could create a world where that could happen. Not only for ourselves but being able to support our fellow creatives also. If a handful of people are just deciding who Is able to get decent payouts or not to me it just ruins that vision. That’s just my personal opinion but I value others think differently and perhaps this just isn’t the place to put focus on until that changes. I have just gotten quite a lot of my friends in the position they were ready to sign up, or just signed up as well.
