So much of what makes it to trending is utter tripe. I used MB to get to trending and raise money for this kid who needs spine surgery. Was wicked.
I'm a little unclear on the exact thinking behind this "wild, wild west week"/removal of limits, but it's a direct response to Bernie threatening to fuck with MinnowBooster's customers.
Its true about trending but it becoming more tripe horrifies me. I have never had a problem with booster services but now being able to just pay your way to the top doesnt sit well with me because however tripe the trending page is, its what a lot of people look at, particularly newcomers or non members.
As I dont look at it I missed the post on the kid who needs spine surgery but went there now and voted :O)
Yeah, though I benefited from the whitelisting, increased limits for original content creators, I think that is what kicked this off - I even felt guilty buying that $120 vote for the sick kid ... now we have this no limits thing which I can't really make sense of and seems to be damaging the services reputation. I've passed these thoughts and this post on to the team.
It is solely that. I think everyone was impressed with MB before and it had the highest rep and best return of the booster services. Then for it to go all wild west no limits at all, it has all gone a bit pete tong as they say here
