RE: Steem Voting Subscription Services - Acceptable or Not?

in #newsteem5 years ago

I've noticed a few of our members are in multiple communities. I'm really only an active member of PHC. I find too many tags at the bottom of posts is just clutter, but that's a personal thing.

A lot of people like communities and they are great. Some people are concerned that eventually good communities will be targeted. I sympathize with their anxiety since communities make Steem great for a lot of people.

I just don't see things the same way with these vote subscription/exchange/buying communities, people are in it for the votes and ROI, not the community engagement or social aspect.

I just don't see things the same way with these vote subscription/exchange/buying communities, people are in it for the votes and ROI, not the community engagement or social aspect. Me neither but I don’t mean tribes I mean steemterminal and payitforward as groups that create content and chat in discord but who knows what the future will bring

I will have to look into those groups specifically.
I posed my question as black or white, but its a spectrum and not even linear.

I think as soon as you promise someone a vote for something other than content, you are entering selling territory.

As soon as you ask for a vote for any purpose other than the content of you post, you are entering buying territory.

Obviously some actions are fine in these territories, but you are no longer flying under the radar.

That’s what open source information does and I like the transparency

Right in the end, if we say one thing and do another, it's pretty easy for someone else to look into it.

Steem takes the phrase 'talk is cheap' to the next level.
