"Starting today, I will be doing a weekly prune of accounts on Discord that have not logged on in 30 days or more, and have not received a Role of any sort. This will help us to keep a better eye on the level of activity the community is seeing. I ran the initial prune last week, removing 888 accounts from the server that were simple dead weight. We will now set a mark in the sand this week with the current stats, and track from there." What exactly does this mean? What do you do when someone hasn't logged on in a month? You know guys, if Steemit is to be really successful it has to accomodate everybody. Not just the tech guys and the people who log on every day, but everyone! A month is not a long time in the real world for people who dabble in digital. And even for people who do use digital regularly but have something else going on in their lives. Be careful that the 'helping Steemit' doesn't turn into 'keeping Steemit for people like us'. The 'dead weight' of today could be a slow burner, a power force of tomorrow. And as for keeping steemit free of scams and rubbish - fine, but be aware that you are taking on a role of policeman, where you and not the platform decides what's a scam or rubbish. One person's rubbish online is another's delight. In my opinion (and it's only my opinion), for Steemit to be really, really successful all every member has to do is contribute their bit to the content - in their own way, whether it be a photo, a quote or a detailed political essay - and comment and reply to things that interest them. That's it! You could add downvoting things they really have a moral issue with along the way, but I mean along the way- not going out of the way to look for them. In that way the platform becomes truly free and everyone can contribute and find their tribe. We attract what we put out. Let's make that a positive attraction rather than a search for the negative.
