Great post.

As a new steemit user, I've been seriously struggling as I see a whole bunch of weird things going on with this platform. Even when I joined, I thought voting for yourself was the norm...which it clearly isn't.

After calculating the way this platform works, there's too many ways to game the system currently and it also has a huge bias towards your account value as well.

Hopefully I make it 6 months down the road!

...by the way, you were here when Steem was $0.16-0.18...amazing!
