I declare a break!
Hello everybody!
I'm sorry, but I'm forced to take a break and stop posting my free SBD posts for an indefinite time because of the constant downvotes of @troglodactyl.
Good luck everyone!

I read through the comments between you two and others opinions mixed in as well. I must admit troglodactyl had a semi valid reason for what he did, it was still wrong of him to do it. As you said, the free sbd was meant to help the little guys and new comers. We live in a monetarily driven society. If you want to attract all people give them money. That was the original intent of steemit. For those that like to just browse and comment, instead of creating new content, your free sbd is a great way to keep those people coming back. Hell, I'm one of them.
He want rich people richer,
Giveaway still legal in my opinion
There are several problems with your position. First, this distribution method directly incentivizes both creating spam and upvoting spam, undermining Steem as a network to create and curate content people actually want to see. Second, it doesn't even distribute rewards effectively to people like you. Mostly it just funnels rewards to people like @fogel. If you like to browse and comment as you say, you'd get a larger payout using your voting power to upvote your comments than you do using it to upvote these schemes. Half of the rewards are paid as SP, which go to the poster instead of to you when you upvote schemes like this.
when do you think you will start up again?
Good job! Thanks to @bookguy you have planted 0.47 tree to save Abongphen Highland Forest in Cameroon. Help me to plant 1,000,000 trees and share my Steem Power to the others. Selfvoting is prohibited, but that should be the reason to spread the world to protect our precious environment. Check out profile of our conservation association @kedjom-keku and the founder/coordinator @martin.mikes to get more information about our conservation program. My current SP is 18375.99. Help me to plant more trees with your delegated SP.
Thanks a lot,
your @treeplanter

Thank you for the passive income while it lasted!
Thank you so much @fogel for your giveaways, I really appreciated them. I understand this is a particular hard time for you and @simplemoney who was also forced to quit for the same reasons. As I said to him, I'll say to you: I will always follow you and if you come up with something in the future, we will be around supporting you with whatever you decide to do. Take some time off to relax, and when you come back we will be here! Best wishes and thank you very much again!
The use of the downvote should come with a corresponding penalty for the person using it. That is the only way to ensure that it is used only when needed, and not abused. Hell, I received a downvote from someone who wanted to collect a possible 10SBD referral fee from Curie. So, he downvoted my post in order to bring its value to below 5SBD and thus make it eligible for submission to Curie. If he had to lose reputation as well as the person he downvoted for having used the downvote, he would have thought twice before using it.
great post fogel! keep it up! and thanks again for following!
Sorry to hear that @fogel! Hope to see you back soon.
Thank you for your giveaways,we're still here supporting you @fogel
Thanks for the support, those racist assholes can go fuck them self, i vote that everyone go and down vote troglodactyl, because he ruined a good thing for new user all over the fact that he wasn't getting his piece of pie so he got jealous and became a discriminating peace of shit. literally been watching people stop using steam because of them, course not much you can do when this platform is only controlled by whales. never thought i would miss facebook
Can you explain your reasoning a bit? I get that you're mad at me for downvoting because you don't understand how Steem works, where the rewards come from, and how spamming to harvest them is destructive. Where do you get racism out of that though?
We hope you come back!
