RE: So who is actually paying the Steemit bill?

in #steemit8 years ago

Let's hope they tank it, that will get the people we don't need here to leave.
Better to play here uncensored, than someplace that doesn't pay, and actively works against you.
The whales will lose either their power or their investment, it's up to them which.
They can't expect to bury @masteryoda sans repercussion.
The early adopters will continue to grow as the people come in.
Might be awhile, but I didn't come here for the money.
I came here for the history.

Sort:  

"They can't expect to bury @masteryoda sans repercussion." what is this about exactly?

I think it is about this: https://steemit.com/stats/@masteryoda/discontinuing-my-daily-statistics-posts

(I really don't get it...)

content driven downvoting will be the death of this place. On the flipside, voting for shitposts will also be the death of this place. Just because your friend likes to write shit posts, doesn't mean that you should vote for his stuff every day. Nepotism is inevitable in this place that doesn't run on invitation protocols and smaller tribes. The forum mentality doesn't work so well in creating bonding. I rarely flag others because I feel that it is such an aggressive, even violent act. Unless there is clear abuse, I don't think people should flag posts. Whale bonding and flagging creates censorship, collapsed posts, and an environment worse than Facebook. I am still so shocked that the main whales don't understand how their aggressive actions are negatively affecting us and their investment. People need ego-diminishing pills here on Steemit. Maybe a new business?

When the halls aren't so empty this will not echo sooo much within them.

I've only downvoted one guy and he directed me to website that asked for my ssn and address.

Being a contrarian content producer this hits home for me.
@masteryoda was just quoting public numbers, not calling for the social revolution.
Keep working, stop paying.

Stellabelle, I completely agree. See my full comments here . I wish I could re-esteem that post, but it's not possible now.

Yep, that is it.
Purely content driven downvoting.
I might not like what you say, but I will let the truth out you, if that is the case.
