I understand your frustration @madviking but don’t lose sight of the long view. I am here, and I hope you are too, because I believe in the platform, not to just cash out in the short term. If this is isn’t the case, you and make more with your time in other ways. Believing in @steem for the long term means investing time and money to build a following and steem power of which the value of both goes up as the platform becomes more valuable. Stay strong!
