RE: Breaking Paradigms, a Difficult Yet Fundamental Task to Grow - Chapter 2 - Possibly The Most Important One to Have The Right Mindset...
You blame the victim that pays for upvotes.
The perpetrators are the preminers that really farm the place and the developers, with the main perpetrator being Dan Larrimer, whom as far as I know may be freedom himself.
ned is guilty too.
For user your size to refrain from paying for votes is stupid.
Due to people like you forfeiting this opportunity, automated bots such as mojo4you are so profitable.
I profited myself, but worked too hard for it, so hard that I do not consider it as a profit.
I do it mainly to reduce profitability of spammers and abusers.
If you bought votes, it would have made my life easier, and your experience more profitable and maybe more interesting.
A victim? Please explain how he's the victim.
The perpetrators aren't abusing the function of curation and so they can sit on their stake for as long as they wish.
Paying for something that is meant to be earned and given when deserved is not stupid. Stepping on everyone with bought for votes is stupid. Paying for free stuff is stupid. It's stupid to voutbate just the same, shortsighted and stupid and clearly abusive as if everyone paid for votes or voted only for themselves there would be zero incentive to publish here anymore.
Yeah its easy to gamble and buy popularity, but it's also very stupid.

He joined a platform that discriminates against everyone whom did not premine and did not premine.
He tries to do the best that he can.
The preminers are all guilty, the witnesses are guilty, everyone that bought STEEM is guilty, but to a lesser extent.
We may be guilty for participating in this game and not migrating to another platform, the way dlive did (wish them good luck).
Upvotes are not free.
There is a limited supply of rshare at any given time, and your problem with his actions imply that you are aware that he takes that "free stuff", which you can give to yourself, away from you.
Buying votes can be beneficial both to reputation (did you claim your Byteball already?) and to your STEEM and SBD holdings.
I buy votes too.
Check mojo4you.
It is a bot that automatically buys votes on plagiarized content at the last moment.
This is what happens when votes are for sale, but people like you refrain from capitalizing on opportunities.
What people like you whom complain instead of compete is very stupid.
I wish there was a decentralized exchange with low enough fees that had Byteball and STEEM and allowed me to convert and exit this game.
I would rather play this game on a better and fairer platform.
More nonsense.
Premine or not @ned or @dan never used their stake in efforts to undermine anyone and certainly not to undermine the function of curation.
He hardly considered anybody but himself since he first stepped on the scene here.
What are the preminers actually guilty of?
Upvotes are free, it's not only that but upvotes come with curation rewards so they are more than free, they are profitable without being sold. In giving to yourself you undermine the function of curation and display the greediness that is labeled as abusive. If everyone bought votes and voted for themselves nobody would come here, period, it would turn into a bitconnnnnnnect Ponzi scheme in a heartbeat.
By subverting how curation works, both for reputation and the popularity of articles you are actively abusing the system. In a videogame that is the equivalent of spawn camping, or camping the spawn of equipment. It's usually an instant ban, or you get labeled a camper and the only people who are going to remain and play are the newbs who don't recognize what you're doing.
The opportunities you see don't have any consideration for the cost on the rest of the players and the place as a whole. That's why servers are abandoned in video games, because someone takes advantage of the "opportunity" to be a total douchebag.
If everyone bought upvotes and upvoted only themselves this place would not exist and there wouldn't be any opportunities for people to actually publish something that isn't completely cacamany and self-serving.
