A little honesty doesn't hurt
You post this with gavvet because you lost a whale's push
You are stopping the service because you lost a whale's push
Really, is that simple. The help we got wasn't much. I admit gavvet upvoted me once or twice but failed to engage in conversation. You promoted an article of mine but really the gap in wealth from the early days cannot be covered from any of us. If I didn't have dantheman following me I will still be earning pennies.
Overall thank you for the help but please don't pretend that the rest of us don't know what really is going on. You guys became an entire different class by just copy-pasting. I mean. Come. On!
It's a hard fall when you get up in the sky fast—with little or no effort. We got it that it became a family business. Just don't put so much gravy on it. It's embarrasing.
Great support from someone I have featured and helped out many times before and never complained then...
LET ME SPELL IT OUT FOR YOU AGAIN
Conclusion
This isn't so much the end of the daily gems, it is the start of something new, something better and I am hoping that this would be more of a fishing rod than the pick of hidden gems.
next time try put in effort to read the whole article maybe then you will understand what I am doing and the gems never started with much value on them in the first place BTW FYI do your homework and stop putting up crappy comments where you have no idea what is actually going on
And BTW me posting with gavvet was made really clear in the article. IT ALSO IS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS WHAT HE DOES AND WHAT I DO
Dude. I said thank you. Didn't I? Also it was YOUR JOB. You were given the whale privilage to do just that.
-Step 1: Copy-Paste
-Step 2: $$$
Really, I could do it too and then ask people to thank me because I was "too nice to them". Get real now. I spoke because I can't have someone insult my intelligence.
I read the whole article. No need to copy -paste me what you said to other people. Ofcourse is our business when 4 people control 25% of the posting market and even pushing certain authors. I rarely saw a science article but plenty of religious ones. Now how's that for diversity? The Steemit frontpage looks like a medieval cult and you want to attract people?
It my business to know what is going on and who is with who— as it is for everybody else. Because if this doesn't stop somehow nobody is going to even bother to stick around and explain it to you like I do.
I spend hours to make quality matrial and I see copy-pastas earning hundreds more. Many have already left. Most of the people i was following or followed just left. really. 80% of them stopped posting. How's that for a "good samaritan" plan?
You guys got FILTHY rich in respect to the rest and you just say "we just wantd to help"
really. is a copy-paste worth 500 SD? is it?
Step 1 find out exactly why things happened the way they did instead of making assumptions
Step 2 if you so great why didnt you come up with a solution or maybe tried doing something to help out. I would be open to any suggestions on improving the way I do things... yet you choose to do this... is it getting us anywhere... nope so whats the point... greed taken over maybe just a little... or even jealousy?... Yet the way that you choose to interact with me... you insulting your own intelligence... ever considered that?
Step 3 until you discover this I will be ignoring you ... thank you :)
I am involved with the RHW project. We did start from scratch.
This is not about jealousy. This is about making the platform stick and get more people without scaring them away.
i made a few points and you just can't accept criticism.
If you think that people upvoted this post or any other because they are quality you are dellusional. simply it is because of the whales. it is a jerk circle. I know what is going with steemit, the bitshares bailout and who is your investor that pushed you from South Africa. We all do. we are 2-3 months in.
If people are shut in the dark then nobody is going to trust the platform. We are all here to make money. killing the goose that lays the golden eggs doesn't really help anyone.
kyriacos Created.....2016-07-30 T 04:23:48...... the blockchain doesn't seem to agree with your 2-3 month claim. I have 0 involvement with bitshares and pray tell I would love to know about "my investor"
I was frankly disappointed to see you involved with RHW(wimp/weasel/whiner) take your pick... as said before I respected your intellect more... I see the little band of merry men even have you gang trolling with them trying to entrench their narratives.
Wake up buddy...
kyriacos, my friend, I obviously respect your intellect way more than you do your own.
You know we have done far more than copy paste... and my account was worth well over 100k before I featured anyone.
That was from hard graft and promoting the platform pre 4th July. I mined a max of 25 steem and I spent real $$$$ of my own to powerup and buy SBD for trading.
I was the first to pay out 100% SBD and over 40k SBD has gone to authors... The steem price is heading back to more realistic levels so the SP that stayed with me is worth a fraction of what the authors get. I'm sure you can do the math.
I do believe more should go to the authors. Way more. People are leaving guys. Can't you see that they are discouraged from all these tactics? It's a downward spiral from here on. The game ends with the whales promoting themselves until everything is drained completely.
How can anyone stay in the platform if they see the investors getting back so much directly? That's like inviting them in order to use them— even if they get 2 times 300SD. People that make 20+ posts see it as pointless. That divides next to nothing and obviously it doesn't pick up from there on because simply the model is faulty.
I have 4000 members in my group, freethinkers, people who abide to ideas of freedom, religious (atheist) or state(anarchy) but they don't even want to come near the platform because it looks, feeels an tastes like a ponzi. I can't find an excuse to convince them when they see your accounts and how the economics work.
The price after the 4th July was an anomaly. The platform was thrust into the spotlight prematurely... I doubt its a downward spiral rather than a return to more realistic levels where the distribution of stake can be normalized.
I'm in agreement that the model needs adjusting... brewing a post on exactly that point as we speak.
The platform needs a lot more maturation before it will be ready for prime time... To many imbalances currently
