hahaha nice this is not trading, we say it trending in newbies that then they create account say everyonen ,,,,upvote you upvote me ,,follow you follow me and they start it continusely till they recieve flags from others, and then understand it that here spaming not allowed
after flagging they show this behaviour seems like kids
This is an interesting point you bring up. Your main account @trafalgar has a shitload of SP and obviously you want to keep the good times rolling so you upvote all your @traf posts after 5 days so you avoid the trending page and stay out of the public eyes, but what's more interesting is that you upvote your own comments at higher rates than you upvote everyone else. I get it, its all about making money and lining your pockets, but is this really good for the ecosystem? I mean what exactly are you doing to help the community grow here?
here's your voting pattern with your main account from just an hour ago. Now you could flag my response so it's not seen and go on doing what you're doing, but my hope is that you spread some love around instead of just stroking yourself
but just so you know @trafalgar already told the winesses like lukestokes that he upvotes his own @traf post 100% at 3 to 5 times a day giving ample time for anyone to challenge it. what's 4% when he's giving himself 100% due to the high SBD ratio these days? Even witnesses are doing it to use the funds to pay for Steem development.
additionally think about it @traf is about training young comedians, everyone here is trying to improve, have fun, and not just that it's building a community for us aspiring comics.
heck, I think I'm the only comic here who never got a 4% upvote from him and not for a lack of trying
yeah, i would like my clit stroke with 4% just like you, but let's not get sand in our panties and blow this out of proportion
you've recently joined us here, know some of us has been here since week 1 on Steemit, myself since my account was approved in October 2017. I consider this my home.
look I, for one, have never seen him downvote anyone, not ever a real arse who deserves it. So maybe @trafalgar is a pacifist, or maybe he's a really big pussy, but he's our pussy, and we love our pussies here, so please show some understanding and realize that we need to develop funny just like we need to develop the dozens of DAPs to greatly benefit Steem.
I think you spoke for all of us here, and if it wasn't for people like @trafalgar, I don't think the comedy community would be anything like it is today, so I'm for one am very thankful. Also, something which i think is pretty classy and awesome is that @trafalagar takes the time to also comment on a lot of posts each day. Many times with more funny comments than the post itself (I'm speaking for my own posts hehe)
Once again I disagree. What exactly has the comedy community become except one guy on top sprinkling a little dust down to the peasants below? What I am seeing is that @trafalgar is commenting or replying just as another way to stroke himself a little more. That's exactly what I was pointing out in my original comment. I know lots of people are afraid to stand up to whales out of fear of being reprimanded or cast into the abyss, but I call things how I see it.
Once again I have no problem with @traf giving himself a few thousand dollars a day for a few minutes of work, but where I do get my panties in a knot is when I see upvoting his own comments and not others.
We all want our piece of the pie and if @trafalgar keeps eating it all, you and I are not going to get any of it. Most people don't understand how the reward pool works and are therefor oblivious to the harm it cause when you do this self stroking, but I am not, nor am I afraid to let my minnow voice be heard
if you understand the reward pool then you understand that even the big whale rent out their Steem Power to get lots of Steem in return, Jerry Banfield already proved that he can get big Steem holders 60% return of their Steem
so if that is the line, then all whales doing rentals...and most are, are getting 60% back from the reward pool.
traf could rent out and get 60% back which is about what he's giving himself, but at what loss to our community, his talent is rare, not easily duplicated, instead he is also giving hours & hours curating creating original content and giving feedback
the reason for every 1000 great superstars in Hollywood there is about 1 great comedian, is not because it pays less, or because stand up is hard due to the tiredness you will feel standing on your feet for an hour of live comedy, it's hard because it's a rare skill.
do you want Steem to be without a comedic heart @jasonshick?
BTW. The #1 subreddit is comedy, that's 50 million members, if we don't prepare for that, for them, you can forget about Steem going to $100
the point is there is enough for most people. When traf was gone last year for 4 months, he put in his Steem for minnowsupport msp rental got his 60%, but we all loss out. I'm very well verse with the blockchain, and yes, I'm a dev, I did my research clearly.
if traf upvoted himself 10times a day like haejin and nobody else like that loser, then I would be on your side 3-5 times and heavily supporting comedy with content and critique is a balance we all can accept
The reward pool and witness rewards are not the same. reward pool is given out to content creators and curators whereas the witness rewards are the same for the top 20 witnesses and they earn a certain amount of Steem each day (currently 200) which has to be powered up and used. When @jerrybanfield was causeing ripples with his actions, I voiced my displeasure to him and had a chat with him about it. I don't like the nonsense no matter who does it, just in this instance it's our local comedian @trafalgar.
The comedy tag is huge on reddit and it has the potential to be massive here, but when 95% of the rewards in the section are going to the same user, how does this promote growth of the community? It's the exact same logic that got a billionaire elected to the white house on the pretense that the billionaire will help out the little people before lining his own pockets, laughable.
Is traf doing more than most other lazy beluga's out there? Yes. Could he do a hell of a lot more to help the comedy community thrive? Hell, yes.
And as for mining. Master nodes are well compensated for their server costs. 200 steem a day works out to something like $300,000/ year at current rate, no laughing amount of money
So your argument is he's is doing alot. He's doing a lot more than any other person for the comedy community and you want him to do more?
That just sounds whiny.
I think your complaints should be reversed. Go complain to the whales who upvote your posts to $100 why they don't visit #funny or #punchline and give out fat ones?
No he’s doing a lot for himself. To the tune of $1500 daily. And minions are afraid to voice their opinion for fear of missing out on his 1% upvote.
People are so afraid to fire back at whales for their nonsense for of being flagged by a whale or shun from the group, but not this minnow. When you are giving 70% of your vote to yourself that’s bullshit, no matter how you slice it
Is traf doing more than most other lazy beluga's out there? Yes. Could he do a hell of a lot more to help the comedy community thrive? Hell, yes.
you greatly under estimate the difficulty of comedy, i for one understand why I don't get 4%
i can stare at a great gif for an hour and still can't come up with something so funny and innovative like these talents
you think this is so easy? honestly, then you dishonor this community with arrogance of presumptions, maybe it's not your fault that you think this way, but don't make assumptions this is easy just because some of them make it look easy
Blind allegiance doesn’t nothing to promote growth and development. You’ve missed the whole point of my argument. I completely understand the 100% upvote on 5 of his posts daily, Iran a bit excessive, but money is good. The point I was making was that upvoting husband own replies at 4% while giving oter people a fraction of that is bullshit. There’s no other way to put it. I will call out any whale on this nonsense, I’m not afraid to voice my opinion. One thing I’ve never been good at is being a sheep, I don’t follow the herd.
The reward pool and witness rewards are not the same. reward pool is given out to content creators and curators whereas the witness rewards are the same for the top 20 witnesses and they earn a certain amount of Steem each day (currently 200) which has to be powered up and used.
nobody is talking about witnesses.......go read the history, Steem was initially mined with the help of pioneers that's how the top few dozen whales got what they got today....do not assume you have all the info, research it for yourself.
The comedy tag is huge on reddit and it has the potential to be massive here, but when 95% of the rewards in the section are going to the same user, how does this promote growth of the community? It's the exact same logic that got a billionaire elected to the white house on the pretense that the billionaire will help out the little people before lining his own pockets, laughable.
you are comparing a billionaire to a office worker who put his entire home deposit down (>150k of his money)....his whole life saving into 1 crypto and dedicated a better part of 1 year of his life to it.
to my awareness no current whale sacrifice such a percentage of net wealth to Steem....no one. And when Steem was dropping from $4 to $0.07...he was buying, when they were all calling Steem dead, he was blogging and upvoting. Nobody I know had the balls to buy Steem then much less put all their net worth in, can you imagine the stress and the courage needed?
Initially he was even upvoting 80% of his VP...higher than ALL whales...and then schmuck who criticize and complained popped up all over and finally he just focus on comedy. In fact he use to vote for witnesses and support them today...none, and I don't blame him, I vote for only few witnesses who have proven to me they are community members and not big ego Steem holders.
The comedy tag is huge on reddit and it has the potential to be massive here, but when 95% of the rewards in the section are going to the same user
We only have 60K active users a day here, I challenge you bring 1000 users to @traf, and he will give out 10x the number of 1-4% easily, that's 200% right there....but where are they....tell me?
the point is they are not here yet......and do you scout through 2 entire tags to look for talent? I know I don't, @trafalgar does.
also, if he was cashing out and living on SBD like some bloggers here are doing then I understand everyone selling SBD is diluting value, lowering prices not just SBD but also Steem price, but he's not, he's powering up 100%....1-0-0-%....more than you and me I would think.
currently...if 60% Steem does not goto him, 100% goes to Haejin, I rather a comedy patron whale like trafalgar gets the Steem then Haejin....do the math and you will understand even zer0hedge is getting 10x100% for transisto so he can fund Steem growth.....basically if 100% goes back into Steem, it's good, with Traf 100% of about 60% goes back to Steem.
And as for mining. Master nodes are well compensated for their server costs. 200 steem a day works out to something like $300,000/ year at current rate, no laughing amount of money
witness mining is 10% today, long ago before the first 24million was paid out it was not 10% and not witness voted weighted, do your research on the history of Steem before you jump to conclusions
most people do not know that a few people hacked the mining pool with supercomputing and high-end hardward and dominated the mining and pushed the everyday miners out even when Steemit tried to stop that in August16
this is terrible compared to all the good that our whale patron is doing today, no different than the Chinese miners of bitcoin pushing everyone else out
I have been following @trafalgar's main account for a while and you're right, I am relatively new to this comedy club and maybe you're right, I need to empty a lot sand from the underpants.
But the way I see it, @trafalgar is a leader in #funny community and as a leader it would be nice to see him spread out the wealth. he has upvoted all of @darksaint's posts at 100% after 4/5 days, and they are all in chinese. Not sure if @traf is chinese or not, but it smells fishy.
It might be a bit of jealousy on my part that i have less than 1% of his 1% SP and I'm not a comedian so I'm not expecting upvotes on my personal posts, but when I see this incessant amount of self stroking going on, I feel I need to chime in to remind people that masturbating is fun and great for future development, but if it's all you're doing, it's going to be very lonely.
but think about it how did all the whales and there are 100 of them get 700K to 1.5 million Steem from back from April 2016 onwards? Most of them mined it, yup, they paid for specialized hardware with tens of thousands of dollars (yes Steem was mined in the early days), stayed up late night and mine and mine and voila, 2 years later with lots of blog to top it up 10-30% back when payout was squared (greatly magnified a $1000 post today was worth $5000 back then).
@trafalgar is not a programmer, not that I can see, but he is great with maths and numbers, obviously since all Asians are great with Equations (see another thing I learn from funny). Traf has not powered down 1 time, he has converted all his SBD to Steem regardless of the rate, and he has powered up faithfully more than most Steemians with 60 to 6000 Steem
i for one will love to see our #funny patron have 1 Million Steem.... That... Would... Just.... Be....Awesome. when i started at @traf, 1% was only $0.98, today I have seen 1% pay $1.98 to $2.50 easily why because @trafalgar is getting bigger and he's sharing his investment, mining legitly at a much higher cost than all the early whales, and building a community at the same time.
Know that most geeks are not funny, most will not appreciate what we all as a community are trying to achieve, the funny geeks are a small subset and we hope many of them will flock from reddit to steemit in the cumming months and years ahead
just know this is not all in vain, we deserve our own funny 1 million Steem lovely pussy whale, please just show some understanding to all of us who rely on @trafalgar's critique, charm, and 1-5% @traf post mentorship.
See this is just annoying now. Now a funny thread is broken up by this massive thread talking about how you don't like how @traf likes to use his own money. All because you upvoted yourself 100%.
Do you realise how difficult it is to masturbate to this thread now? And there's a hot chick at the top!! Aren't you feeling selfish today.
Yeah, but he gives 100% when its funny. This isny funny this is the same topic that @berniesanders and @lukestokes brought up. But even they weren't as big assholes about it (actually luke was nice) and they didnt ruin our fun with their bile
show me some 100%'s that hes handed out to someone other than @darksaint. Let's not be naive here, we all want to suck off the queen bees teet, but any ecosystem where 95% of the rewards are going to 1 person, is unsustainable. Don't let your rosy glasses fool you
His 100% is worth approx $300. (let's say for arguments sake).
take out 25% for curation, that leaves $225 to the author.
Current SBD price is about $4.5. Can you show me a funny meme or comment that you would give $618.75 US after laughing at it?
"Oh but NSFW what about non funny things? he can upvote those?" you will say. Yeah, but I'd rather he didn't, he is the ONLY whale we have in #funny and you want him to leave? do you want steem to die? go read @dj123's comment above reddit has 50million subscribers to r/funny their largest subreddit.
I still maintain, you should go convince the whales that give you $100, to come laugh at my posts and give me $100 instead. But that's the way it works here. Having a connect is just the start, you have to earn a 1% upvote from @traf you have to earn a 20%upvote from @punchline. You don't get pitty upvotes from those guys.
Now, Our maestro here, @traf had balls of steel to put in a house deposit into a crypto that was dying at the time because he believed in it. You signed up in July, why didn't you buy 100,000 steem? it would have been very cheap. Little balls, that's why. Now you jump around saying how you have big balls because you are yet another person in a long line to notice something we all know. Oh but you aren't willing to show you actually have big balls and buy steem...
Seriously, if you want to learn to be funny I can help you
Here it is, minions always come running in to support the queen. Let’s break down what you’re saying here.
There are no memes that I would give a $600 upvote to, and i don’t have a $600 upvote to give, but traf does. He gives himself that vote at least 5 times a day and also upvotes all his extra replies at a higher weight than those who leave comments, putting even Moreno rewards in his own pocket. Husband account is currently worth over $2million USD and it costs him NOTHING to support the #funny community beside so clicking the upvote button.
I’m not looking for pity votes, I never asked @traf to come over to my posts and hit the up click, read my original comments.
Why didn’t I invest 100k back in July when it was $1/steem? Well that’s pretty easy, I don’t have an extra 100k lying around. It hasn’t nothing to do with the size of my balls.
The reddit community is 50 million, that’s great for reddit. The steemit community is a fraction of that and will remain that way until something is done to stop whales from jerking themselves off at the expense of everyone else.
Get off this guys dick and try and think about the underlying economic situation of what is happening. Once again I’ll ask you, how Is one dude taking 95% of the rewards in a certain category good for the long term?
No, reddit community is over 300 million, the funny part of reddit is 50million. You think it got that way by luck or by people like traf who posted there (and yes he was a redditor).
Have you seen how much traf cash's out? most of his rewards he puts back into steem so we aren't talkign about Haejin here so breathe a little. @traf didn't have $100k lying around either, he put down his house deposit. he risked a roof over his head to get his steem. So to my mind, it's his steem, he earned it. You don't know if it took him and his parents 15 years to save up the $100,000 for a house or what the story is. What did you risk to get your steem? Your response is just, he has steem so he should spray it around. My arguement is, he fucking earned it. He is contributing to the community and helping it grow (which you agree with) you just add, hey he could do more. It doesn't cost him anything? it clearly does, it could be 100% he takes like Haejin, and contributes nothing to the community.
But hey, jason's hick is here so everyone back off and listen to him who has done almost no research.
maybe you're right. Maybe we should gang up on @traf. have him leave steemit again. leave #funny as a wasteland with no whales who care about us. Even better. Get him to sell all his steem and take a nice profit. and the @trafalgar whale to disappear. Thanks for trying to join our community. but instead of complaining. go post something funny and show that you deserve an upvote.
@traf,
Damn my internet connection is damn slow. Sorry no way to participate this by a gif :/
I don't think it's a good idea to do vote trade with you :D I won't get heart attack when I see 100% upvote from you lol :D
and how it feel to us...
lol voice from the other side
yepp ...Sitting outside the car ..begging for upvote from you
Lol like getting a slap to the face

hahaha nice this is not trading, we say it trending in newbies that then they create account say everyonen ,,,,upvote you upvote me ,,follow you follow me and they start it continusely till they recieve flags from others, and then understand it that here spaming not allowed

hahaha right :D
Very interesting post. Useful informations for all steemians. Upvoted and resteeeeeemed
Lol
haha spot on
This is an interesting point you bring up.

additionally think about it @traf is about training young comedians, everyone here is trying to improve, have fun, and not just that it's building a community for us aspiring comics.
I have seen @trafalgar upvote up to 15 people per @traf post at 1,2,3% when the replies are strong and good....but if it's weak why should he give 1%...much less 4%.....send the wrong message. Additionally, he routinely gives 3-5% for really funny original post in both #funny and #punchline, go see for yourself, go see @acolucky, @dandesign86, @redlipstick, @idikuci, @thevillian, @damira, @bluetower, @steemmatt, @oflyhigh, @htliao, @cheah, @steemnsfw, @b00m, @take5, @hanzappedfirst, @theabsolute, @punchline, @meesterboom, @swenger, @timsaid, @kyriacos, and probably a shit ton more that I don't know about
heck, I think I'm the only comic here who never got a 4% upvote from him and not for a lack of trying
yeah, i would like my clit stroke with 4% just like you, but let's not get sand in our panties and blow this out of proportion

most people do not know that a few people hacked the mining pool with supercomputing and high-end hardward and dominated the mining and pushed the everyday miners out even when Steemit tried to stop that in August16
this is terrible compared to all the good that our whale patron is doing today, no different than the Chinese miners of bitcoin pushing everyone else out
I have been following @trafalgar's main account for a while and you're right, I am relatively new to this comedy club and maybe you're right, I need to empty a lot sand from the underpants.
But the way I see it, @trafalgar is a leader in #funny community and as a leader it would be nice to see him spread out the wealth. he has upvoted all of @darksaint's posts at 100% after 4/5 days, and they are all in chinese. Not sure if @traf is chinese or not, but it smells fishy.
It might be a bit of jealousy on my part that i have less than 1% of his 1% SP and I'm not a comedian so I'm not expecting upvotes on my personal posts, but when I see this incessant amount of self stroking going on, I feel I need to chime in to remind people that masturbating is fun and great for future development, but if it's all you're doing, it's going to be very lonely.
hey i totally understand @jasonshick
but think about it how did all the whales and there are 100 of them get 700K to 1.5 million Steem from back from April 2016 onwards? Most of them mined it, yup, they paid for specialized hardware with tens of thousands of dollars (yes Steem was mined in the early days), stayed up late night and mine and mine and voila, 2 years later with lots of blog to top it up 10-30% back when payout was squared (greatly magnified a $1000 post today was worth $5000 back then).
@trafalgar is not a programmer, not that I can see, but he is great with maths and numbers, obviously since all Asians are great with Equations (see another thing I learn from funny). Traf has not powered down 1 time, he has converted all his SBD to Steem regardless of the rate, and he has powered up faithfully more than most Steemians with 60 to 6000 Steem
i for one will love to see our #funny patron have 1 Million Steem.... That... Would... Just.... Be....Awesome. when i started at @traf, 1% was only $0.98, today I have seen 1% pay $1.98 to $2.50 easily why because @trafalgar is getting bigger and he's sharing his investment, mining legitly at a much higher cost than all the early whales, and building a community at the same time.
Know that most geeks are not funny, most will not appreciate what we all as a community are trying to achieve, the funny geeks are a small subset and we hope many of them will flock from reddit to steemit in the cumming months and years ahead
just know this is not all in vain, we deserve our own funny 1 million Steem lovely pussy whale, please just show some understanding to all of us who rely on @trafalgar's critique, charm, and 1-5% @traf post mentorship.
See this is just annoying now. Now a funny thread is broken up by this massive thread talking about how you don't like how @traf likes to use his own money. All because you upvoted yourself 100%.
Do you realise how difficult it is to masturbate to this thread now? And there's a hot chick at the top!! Aren't you feeling selfish today.
haha he only upvoted himself 50%, feel better? Ok go proceed as you planned, please stop telling all of us. Thanks
Sorry, just hoping to share some of my glory this morning.
Yes I do feel better. But that's only cos I managed to complete my previous activities.
I thought a 100% upvote was what we are supposed to do, just following the leader
Yeah, but he gives 100% when its funny. This isny funny this is the same topic that @berniesanders and @lukestokes brought up. But even they weren't as big assholes about it (actually luke was nice) and they didnt ruin our fun with their bile
show me some 100%'s that hes handed out to someone other than @darksaint. Let's not be naive here, we all want to suck off the queen bees teet, but any ecosystem where 95% of the rewards are going to 1 person, is unsustainable. Don't let your rosy glasses fool you
His 100% is worth approx $300. (let's say for arguments sake).
take out 25% for curation, that leaves $225 to the author.
Current SBD price is about $4.5. Can you show me a funny meme or comment that you would give $618.75 US after laughing at it?
"Oh but NSFW what about non funny things? he can upvote those?" you will say. Yeah, but I'd rather he didn't, he is the ONLY whale we have in #funny and you want him to leave? do you want steem to die? go read @dj123's comment above reddit has 50million subscribers to r/funny their largest subreddit.
I still maintain, you should go convince the whales that give you $100, to come laugh at my posts and give me $100 instead. But that's the way it works here. Having a connect is just the start, you have to earn a 1% upvote from @traf you have to earn a 20%upvote from @punchline. You don't get pitty upvotes from those guys.
Now, Our maestro here, @traf had balls of steel to put in a house deposit into a crypto that was dying at the time because he believed in it. You signed up in July, why didn't you buy 100,000 steem? it would have been very cheap. Little balls, that's why. Now you jump around saying how you have big balls because you are yet another person in a long line to notice something we all know. Oh but you aren't willing to show you actually have big balls and buy steem...
Seriously, if you want to learn to be funny I can help you
Here it is, minions always come running in to support the queen. Let’s break down what you’re saying here.
There are no memes that I would give a $600 upvote to, and i don’t have a $600 upvote to give, but traf does. He gives himself that vote at least 5 times a day and also upvotes all his extra replies at a higher weight than those who leave comments, putting even Moreno rewards in his own pocket. Husband account is currently worth over $2million USD and it costs him NOTHING to support the #funny community beside so clicking the upvote button.
I’m not looking for pity votes, I never asked @traf to come over to my posts and hit the up click, read my original comments.
Why didn’t I invest 100k back in July when it was $1/steem? Well that’s pretty easy, I don’t have an extra 100k lying around. It hasn’t nothing to do with the size of my balls.
The reddit community is 50 million, that’s great for reddit. The steemit community is a fraction of that and will remain that way until something is done to stop whales from jerking themselves off at the expense of everyone else.
Get off this guys dick and try and think about the underlying economic situation of what is happening. Once again I’ll ask you, how Is one dude taking 95% of the rewards in a certain category good for the long term?
No, reddit community is over 300 million, the funny part of reddit is 50million. You think it got that way by luck or by people like traf who posted there (and yes he was a redditor).
Have you seen how much traf cash's out? most of his rewards he puts back into steem so we aren't talkign about Haejin here so breathe a little. @traf didn't have $100k lying around either, he put down his house deposit. he risked a roof over his head to get his steem. So to my mind, it's his steem, he earned it. You don't know if it took him and his parents 15 years to save up the $100,000 for a house or what the story is. What did you risk to get your steem? Your response is just, he has steem so he should spray it around. My arguement is, he fucking earned it. He is contributing to the community and helping it grow (which you agree with) you just add, hey he could do more. It doesn't cost him anything? it clearly does, it could be 100% he takes like Haejin, and contributes nothing to the community.
But hey, jason's hick is here so everyone back off and listen to him who has done almost no research.
maybe you're right. Maybe we should gang up on @traf. have him leave steemit again. leave #funny as a wasteland with no whales who care about us. Even better. Get him to sell all his steem and take a nice profit. and the @trafalgar whale to disappear. Thanks for trying to join our community. but instead of complaining. go post something funny and show that you deserve an upvote.
@traf,
Damn my internet connection is damn slow. Sorry no way to participate this by a gif :/
I don't think it's a good idea to do vote trade with you :D I won't get heart attack when I see 100% upvote from you lol :D
Cheers~
I hate those people. But what I hate even more are people who gave you a beer 1 year ago and then stop by daily to have some of your vodka
hello no, nobody touches my vodka!
It's holier than holy water
Bottle the holy water for your visitors so you don't waste your vodka.
