RE: 90/100 Posts on Trending are "Overrewarded posts" with no Downvotes(actually some have upvotes from the Downvoter Whales), when will they be Downvoted by the Downvoters hitting our community?(not advocating to DV)

Hi to you,

I would say that this sphere is really predestined to be exploited. The existing functions with regard to the possibility of maintaining multiple accounts and being anonymous will not be changed, since registration with a clear name and ID number will probably not take place. Which nobody would want (data protection, etc.).

Since one neither knows the identity of an account holder nor how many he/she maintains, it is almost impossible to recognise who is on a large and/or subtle exploitative or robbery spree. Unless you invest a lot of investigative time and energy.

I sometimes fail to understand why there is such a serious and dogged struggle here about how to become masters of a problem that is and, in my view, will continue to be present by the very nature of the existing functions.
All of us together here produce shit posts, I don't see much difference in terms of what someone recognises as a quickly edited and cobbled together post.

The nature of this blogosphere invites mediocre, poorly timed content to be churned out as if by rote, if only because of the time window, which doesn't even reach the seven day attention span, but doesn't seem to interest readers or voters after just a few days. Me included, whether I like it or not, I adopt this habit, although I am critical of it and try to break this habit here and there. But it's no use if I remain the only one.

It's like Ford's first automobile manufacturing plant, only here we don't produce cars, but blocks, texts and pictures. It's assembly line to the overwhelming degree and rather uniform-looking productions. Exceptions confirm the rule. One may be grateful to chance when, loosely in the flow of reading or commenting, one comes across something unknown, surprising and even disturbing. In the long run, every tag becomes worn out and expanded and diluted.

What if you say, "So what? So the sphere is exploited here. Why not?"

All resources end at some point and as long as they are available, we have had our pleasure with them. What's all this fight about the reward pool?" Everyone behaves the same way here, even when it comes to accusations. Where has the humour gone?

In fact, I don't think anyone gives a damn about the reward pool. One can pretend to care, just as one can believe in a "greater cause", but in the end we really don't seem to care and probably only care for the sensational feeling that caring about a reward pool or world health etc. etc. seems to promise social recognition. Whoever says they don't care, will be then stoned? LOL

Let's just stop all this DV business and protectorate business and then we will see the true face of what we created. And as quickly as a blockchain is created, it ends. Why artificially maintain what can be so excellently exploited?

I sometimes get the impression that as much as there is talk about getting the masses on board, somehow this is not actually being done. It seems more like one wants to remain an exclusive club. Which, of course, has something to be said for it. One stays among oneself and has less competition to fear. LOL

The fast pace and the exchange of users is a fact. I hardly know any of those with whom I once engaged in a lively way of votes and comments who would still be here. I feel as if I once walked into a village where I had a lot of fun and also friction, but gradually all the villagers have left and I am the only one who has to constantly introduce myself to new residents who are a bit too exuberant in cheering the village.

..oh well, I think I got lost. :)
