I'd downvote it but you wiped out your own rewards... I know I'm not the first to say this, but this SUCKS.
I spent almost 2 years here and didn't power down once... I vote 2126 SP... And my vote is not worth anything. Its ok, I get half of it though.
Ohhhh shit, I just realized half of nothing is still nothing!
This is the nail in the coffin... You guys are truly clueless
I upvoted this because even though it's worth nothing, it also costs me nothing.
There is now more "Nothing" in STEEM than in "The Neverending Story"!
Sadly accurate, with the possible exception of ads; of those we seem to have plenty....
It looks like I will have to stop using my phone as a backup sign in method. These ads make replies almost impossible by filling my entire screen.
:'(How disappointing. It seems like things just keep getting worse and worse around here. I don't even know what to say. It boggles my mind how anyone thought this reduction of value for any posts or comments under 20 steem was a good idea. I've done a good job of not complaining over the last number of years, but this is just bad and sad.
It’s beyond lame. Steemit will be dead soon
Haven't you understood it yet? They want to incentivize 'small' users to buy (enough) steem. 'If you have no money, f**k you' attitude
I agree with your analysis, but it works the opposite way with me. I don't like that kinda "incentive" (ie I get nothing unless I pony up $)... I spent almost 2 years daily here, that was my contribution... I'm not about to invest a nickel in a system that is going to lose all the common folks at the expense of the few at the top they have protected.
It’s not about money
I could buy 100000 tokens
It’s the fact it’s a Ponzi scam now.
"bad and sad" ... perfect description @apolymask!
And you always carried yourself with amazing integrity... You have my respect always!!!
I'd upvote you for speaking the truth, but it will be worth nothing, so no point. Sorry.
lol... no worries... thanks for the comment though... At least now when people say the words are worth more than the money, then we will know they speak the truth! :D
I DID upvote your comment, because you echo my feelings exactly.
My VP went down a bit as reflected in Steemnow.
I upvoted my own post from last night, at 100% vote power, and
The value of that post (which had made it up to $0.04) did not
Change a bit.
So it is obvious to me now that I will NEVER be able to make any
Real money here now.
I just do NOT understand how the Steemitdev team can think that
This system is conducive to small holders making money, making
Significant quality posts to the platform, and want to remain here.
Thanks @davemccoy
i aggree also. it seems unless you were here from day 1, and ammassed a huge trail behind you, you aint gonna get shit.
i legit gave up trying to post and make any reward months ago.
gave u an upvote, hopefully it puts you above the 2c required to get a rewaard. but with steem price falling every day, unlikely.
u need a vote from a roughly 2600 sp account now to make threshold
The good thing is the reward curve can be restored... so now you might be able to get some steem for a few cent, steemit inc will have to sell all of their steem in order to survive, let them restore together with smt the reward curve... then have this recover... my point of view... no financial advice...
It totally sucks
yep.... it was nice to meet you way back @artgirlnyc... good luck in your future activities!
