RE: Steemit.com Search Function Broken? Have No Fear, Work Around Inside..!
Please resist the temptation to stack votes using vote selling services under Newsteem.
Contribute to a fairer playing field by giving organic voting a chance without undermining Proof of Brain.
Downvoted.
I don't mind taking your downvote hit if it helps people search on the STEEM blockchain when the Steemit Inc search page function isn't working.
This is a PSA that was upvoted by minnowbooster in order to maximize visibility.. With that being said if you wish to punish me for trying to be helpful so be it.. shrugs
edit: #newsteem isn't going to have anyone on it if we're punishing people trying to help others.. Having a user/witness spend their own money to increase visibility on a post outlining a work around to services currently out seems a bit cruel or shortsighted.. :/
I've flagged your comment with -1% as a means of showing my lack of understanding in your reasoning. It's not meant to hurt your reputation, but rather show my frustration of your "shooting the messenger" mentality and seemingly punishing me for sharing a tip to help others..
You shouldn't view it as being 'punished' for anything
I'm merely using my stake to try to disincentivize people from buying votes which strongly undermines organic curation
When this was the norm before the latest HF, most stakeholders, myself included, resorted to reclaiming their voting rewards somehow (selling votes, self voting, voting circles etc.) The economic incentives favored this so much over honest curation that the system was unable to correct itself.
This is no longer the case under the improved economic incentives of NewSteem. Many have chosen to take an active stance against these old behaviors that completely eroded our platform.
An community leader like yourself with an established following should be confident in their ability to bring attention to what they have to say without the need to contribute to undermining our proof of brain system by buying votes.
As to the actual post itself, the information may be of use to some, but I did not deem it to be worth $60
This is a well typed out and ultimately acceptable rebuttal to my rant above. Thank you for taking time out of your day to politely explain exactly your reasoning behind it. Highly appreciated captain.
I wouldn't say the platform is completely eroded but we certainly haven't been flourishing as we should be, as to who is to blame here or what actions caused this I'll not speculate on now.
Giving you my 100% upvote on this comment to negate the effect that any downvote above would have. Once again thank you for your explanation, I respect your right to upvote and downvote as you see fit on valuable or valueless content.
Shut your piehole! Take your DOWNVOTE like a man damn it!
btw: good tip! lol
lol, fuck you kwa. You cute sonofabitch. :D :D
