Hey guys. I'm Berni, since 20 years I am a full time FREE THINKER.
I like the idea of Steemit, and being into self publishing content since 1995 (php-mysql era), I surely had the same idea, but not backed by a free market coin (that's genius). So the issue about coming out with a product like this was that the content is very transient and eventually it will disappear. For the mechanism of getting paid, infact, the focus is on new content and the old one is basically useless.
Going this way, infact, content that is useful forever, think about encyclopedia's definitions or how-tos gets buried by a bunch of useless content, funny or attractive for one day, but then after, be honest.. who will care about these girls traveling when the story is not new anymore? what kind of content they can express that will survive the first 5 minutes, in terms of utility for the mankind?
So we got the system even forgetting your old posts, and you honestly don't care. you just think 'oh, i had zero', i will have to invent something new.
This way intrinsic quality is not incentivized. What is incentivized is the making of new marketable personal stories. No intrisic value in this.
As a provocation, before sweating out some really cool and immortal info, I tried to post some LIFECHANGING lectures in video format (taken by youtube), of UNDOUBTFUL superior intrinsic value, but nobody paid attention.
So. I will transform into a troll. Just commenting these stories, since I don't have boobs.
I don't want to put my secret formulas in a square that is sheuvinistic or shows to have silly tastes. it's more like a troll valley. I will camp here for a while.
I hope something will be made to make it better. To have this place to get a reason to exist. Not just tits and tips.
But respect for the intellect.
Cheers
