Lol. All this does is prove that the only accounts with power are the whales and the bots. At least it saves time by proving there is no point in new users putting any time or effort into this platform (much less powering up!!!!!). It won’t fulfill its ‘promise’ of providing income (to the vast majority of users), and the ongoing wars will just drive users away. I am certainly sick of it.
sounds alot like the real world. there is no way that money is involved and those with less of it have more power than those with more of it.
just like in real life if your not willing to invest into your balance and increase your power then the minnows will not follow you because you have nothing they want and the whales wont waste their time on you because they see you as beneath them.
we should Fork steemit and create our own platform with moderation and accountability.
decentralization is good until you realize the rich will rule your decentralized world. (they co opt everything)
well they are voting for more % of the reward pool then you, yep that's true but they don't upvote only their own posts and ignore the rest, they are voting for many users. The only problem with voting bots is that they can't distinguish between good and bad posts that is the duty of other ppl who fight against spam and scam that gets promoted by bots.
If a votign bot starts to only upvote his own posts then ppl will start flagging the bot like it happend in the past with scam bots.
they’re not wars
they don’t affect most users
yes, because less voting collusion to skim the rewards pool leaves more rewards available for others.

Then why don't you go after the voting bots that suck >30% of reward pool every day? They vote at random, with cursory attempts at sensing spam.

Truth knows its own source. We don't want to attract new users we want to provide a platform of currency exchange rooted in truth not capitalism.
It is important to sort steem creators from money manufacturers if steem is to rise above money as intended.
