This is a truly unusual post about The Byteball Airdrop. "To prove once and for all the real sense of 'community' in steemit!!" (COM Round 22 entry II)
After having witnessed from the first row during these last days the high frenzy, the frantic rushes, the proliferation of posts, comments, gimmick, unsolicited DMs on Discord, etc., etc., flying across the steemit platform wall to wall in all languages & dialects everywhere. And all the frankly slippery slopes through which everybody and their pets has been going thru with this suddenly recent folly of the free money offered and given by the guys of The Byteball Airdrop...
¡I've been seriously thinking!
It would exist the remote possibility that I really am missing something truly good for me happening here and waiting for me here and over there?
That for not acting myself decisively with the same hurry with which all the people here seems to have been trying to recruit new unsuspecting preys through their Byte wallet's link referrals & click baits that they drop to earn a few extra Bytes I will lose my chance?
That for always being a too cautious patient analyst and serious chap. I will lose my opportunity to obtain also an extra money fallen from the sky that I certainly need and it would do me a lot of good?
¡Well yeah! this is always a risky possibility!
But the real reason why I didn't act yet is one very simple. Currently I have a REP score of 58.912. So, supposedly, I could be easily pumped UP until a 60 REP score quickly through the generous upvote of one single wealthy whale willing to vote this post or any other they can choose on my blog.
As long, as the recent announcement of "The Official Byteball Airdrop to Steemians" post claims that the distribution of rewards will be made according the next table:
Am I being too greedy trying to get an additional $40.00 if I could capture the goodwill of someone rich and generous enough who would like to lend me a hand with this first, before going through the whole process to download and register my brandnew Byteball wallet?
Ok, let me THINK again!
Actually, I believe that under this current situation of shortage of upvotes, lack of comments & interaction and the scant attention and recognition that are getting now our great content within the platform by the ones who truly could reward splendidly well our great efforts to add value and healthy laughter to our community. All this also would be the best time and well worth to try my little experiment next at least.
"An experiment testing The Real Sense of 'COMMUNITY' in Steemit"
«-Merchandising My Strategy-»
I don't know about you. But I'm certainly going to use more direct and furtive strategies on my goals. Instead of using the most annoying & blatant indiscriminate 'spam' for this campaign like many others. I will barely beg for a big fat upvote of a compassionate wealthy whale who could help me out to reach that elusive 60 REP asap. ¡That's it!
I even could transfer the amount & value of their upvote back to their wallet once the goal has been achieved (60 REP) if they consider it necessary. I've just used the coolest bidbots by myself on this post to try accomplish this goal but no avail. So, do you see my approach logical, correct, humble and appropriate? ¿Can you lend me a hand on this? ¿We have a deal then? ¿¡YES?!
Ok, then... Beam me up, Scotty!!
Anyway, 'por si las moscas' let me nominate a couple of whales to attend to this dire event just in case. In first place, I'm gonna nominate to The Fun Guy @berniesanders and his wake of good feelings. And in second place, to my Gray nemesis @gtg to have the chance to whisper thru his ears that dress coats in pink is way much cooler. :)
So, ¿Are you truly a 'community' oriented steemian or not?

Unless the photos are your own, you will need to cite your sources for them.
Well mate, basically there are no 'photos' in my post except the first picture. And even that image along with all the other 'illustrations' in my article, they all came out from a large library of pics that I've had accumulated & stored on my HDs from decades ago. Therefore, I have not the slightest idea what was the original source from where I took them the first time. ;)
On other hand, I could tell you my esteemed friend @profanereviews. That all those thoughtful and majestic illustrations belong to one of the humorous geniuses I admire the most on this planet. ¡The Unmatched Quino! and therefore, to illustrate my usual extravagant rants and shorten a bit the long textual tirades in my articles in steemit. And everywhere else online. I've been using them profusely for years, apart from illustrate and reinforce my written discourses and odd viewpoints, also to massively disseminate the awareness about his artistic existence, his unparalleled skills, his unusual genius and exalt his virtues and qualities as one of the greatest masters of visual graphic humor.
If you are willing to take the trouble to check out and confirm all that I have told you above. In first place, you can click right here to read (in spanish) my peculiar tribute to the amazing and stunning work of the Great Master Quino on steemit.
And in second place, this other fine & old post written in your own native tongue. Also profusely illustrated with the insuperable genius of Master Quino, that I bet you and everyone else will find of High Usefulness.
Cheers!! }:)
My English teacher would still deduct a mark out of 5 for that. She's a fucking bitch man.
LoL that's right @sharanaithal. But also may well be that he is simply doing his entrusted job that has been delegated to him to fulfill it without questioning anything else. You know, like the military. };)
The problem is it's a she. I still don't like her.
Wait a minute...are you an English teacher too..?!
Hahahaha you are indeed a surprisingly funny oddball kid @sharanaithal. You've just upvoted both comments. ¡Both! the one from @profanereviews as well as mine. ¿What is your true final position in this debate really? :p
From what kind of unearthly 'lucid' intuition you get that impression?
Is it from the eloquence of my sweeping spanglish?
I want you both to brawl it out in a Spartan Colosseum. Thingy.
Mayyyybe....
Or it's because you stood up for my English teaching devil.
No, definitely that, yup.
That's the spirit pal. I'm already starting to like you simply for that.
Nah! I just thought you were talking about my questionator. Not about your gorgeous female English teaching devil. };p
Okey dokey. I just thought I'd let you know.
So, as you maybe noticed with your bidbot votes, it takes a lot to go from 58 to 60. Its not like theres a whole bunch of people who could do it but won't, it actually takes months (or weeks of using bidbots) to raise rep at these higher levels.
Yeah mate, I certainly noticed it. And had to learn 'that' the hard way through the recent bidbot's experience.
But sure as hell that It Is A Fact. And I still think. That if same like you, everyone here abstains with no reasons to give not even those humble upvotes of $0.05. Everything here will be harder and the 'community' concept such as has been clearly exposed in my little experiment. Undoubtedly is not more than a BIG JOKE!! Probably bigger than this post. };)
No quiero ofenderle cuando digo
su experimento me pareció
los votos por necesidad.
Me gusta su estilo,
su manera escribir tan único,
pero mi regla tiene antigüedad.
Recargo mi vote power,
no voto cualquier flower,
Y no voto solo por piedad.
Los principios del plataforma
que el buen contenido surgiera,
por algunos tienen flexibilidad.
No quiero que ud. fracasa,
Solo su experimento. Piensala,
y su efecto si ganara.

Cuanta polémica Dios mio!
Así es la vida hermano @juanmolina. Una eterna polémica. Especialmente cuando alguien con una lengua bien afeitada gusta de atizar más el fuego con una sana y útil controversia. Jajajaja
No te me achicopales nunca ante eventos con perspectivas diferentes sobre un tema dado. Jamás te des por vencido y siempre continúa echando pa fuera tus puntos de vista con extrema elocuencia y lúcido razonamiento. Solo a través de una buena polémica, una bien planteada controversia y una nutritiva discusión es que uno y todos los involucrados y sumergidos en ella lograremos aprender algo nuevo cada día.
Un abrazo!! :)
