😁 lol. It was the same emotion that parents feel when their kid does something cool.
How are you doing @tolkatore?
We are all missing you here on Steemit and waiting for you to come back from your sabbatical. I hope you had a good long weekend 🤗

Ha ha, I'm giving it a break, because I was not liking what has become of Steemit lately. The whole witness thing got me kind of bummed too, because it doesn't seem like many of them are even doing anything to make the platform better.

My plan is to take a step back for awhile, and see if it actually grows, like with real users, not more bots for the people who have all the Steem either... we shall see.

I completely understand what you mean! I hope it doesn't go down the drains. It would be such a pity because it is such a wonderful idea. I hope they realize before it is too late! Wouldn't want it to become like MySpace ;)

I still believe that a pay to win economy can never win, and I think a lot of the whales are just draining Steemit for what it has left, until it has nothing more left to give.

If you want a really good real world scenario about what happens to pay to win economies, check out the story of the mobile game Clash of Clans... there you will find the answers you seek Lucy.

Oh dear :( I will definitely check out Clash of Clans to better understand how it plays out. It is such a pity if it all ends so quickly! I was just getting warmed up! lol

This is just one mans prediction Lucy, but pay to win generally never lasts, especially if they don't do anything to discourage cheaters, but I hope it really does workout for you my friend.

Hopefully hivemind will help. Combine that with new users and im hoping that we can catch up to the whales in sp and use it in a better way. The more users we have the better for the blockchain. We might not earn as much steem personally but as a group the minnows will do a lot better from it.

Hmm, I don't know... and some of the whales you're referring too have millions of Steem, but I do appreciate your optimism.
