RE: Viva Bitcoin Cash
You clearly don't understand anything of Steemit or decentralized systems in general. Steemit has a huge inflation rate, so just investing would be very stupid. The positive thing on investing in Steem is that it gives you some advantages like making your posts / comments more visual and earning something. This is the reason I invested in it, and I use the rights I bought. Till a few weeks ago you could even choose for a selfupvote before you posted a comment. Steemit needs investors to pay out the popular bloggers who are getting more upvotes than views (isn't this a flaw? people up voting without reading?) If you take away the advantages of investing in Steem, nobody will invest and the pool will be drained in no time. Why should writers earn thousands of dollars for less than an hour writing while investors who are as needed have no rights? And my main point is that YOU think you are the one who can decide, we have a full decentralized consensus system that makes decisions like that.
Loser, go upvote all my own posts now.
I am aware of how Steemit and decentralized systems work. The reward pool is supposed to be used to reward others for their work, and people who make a lot of money off posts don't just spend an hour on their work. They have to research, many of them say they type drafts, and then they post up the end product which they deserve to get paid for more than you do for your comment that took 3 minutes to write. You think you deserve almost $1 for that? You complain about people needing upvotes but yet you use all of yours on yourself.
"And my main point is that YOU think you are the one who can decide, we have a full decentralized consensus system that makes decisions like that."
I AM the one that can decide because I am an investor. I have the right to flag people when they are being rewarded more than they deserve for posts, click the flag that's an option right there. The full decentralized consensus comes from people like me and you voting on content, so I think you are the one who doesn't understand. If you want to give yourself an upvote to move your comment to the top, do a small % vote. Give yourself 100% on any actual posts you make. But spreading your opinion around in the comment sections and thinking you deserve to be rewarded for it is wrong, others should be rewarding you if they think what you say is valuable. That is how we build a decentralized consensus.
