RE: Chasing Followers is not the way to go! Trust me! Can you find WALDO?
I think most people don't understand what the consequences of the weighted voting system are on their payouts.Most people think more followers --> more upvotes --> more money, which is why the follow-for-follow thing is so popular among new users. Most people dont understand that a single whale vote is often worth more than hundreds of minnow votes.
yes! This post is basically trying to help people to move away from FOLLOW for FOLLOW. I did it when I first started and I didn't see helpful posts on this phenomena. The platform is relatively new and N00b's kinda wonder in the dark for a while. When people wonder for too long, they lose interest. It seems like steemit has a blog - flow but gets erased with history. We don't have time to go through all the in's and out's of the platform so it's easy to lose focus and interest. Hopefully this helps a little for whoever saw it.
