RE: Should We All Be involved In Power Down?
It is also very damaging to communities when leading members power down.
Trust is then lost in those communities, and the remaining members will have to work doubly hard to restore that trust.
Of course, it has to be remembered that people don't have to only post in communities. They can just post on their personal blogs.
It would be interesting to know what people would think about having more centrally controlled communities.
The resource load would be very high, and the problem would be finding enough suitable people to manage all the communities.
It has been difficult to find enough people to be good Crypto Professors.
Trying to replicate that process for multiple communities would be close to impossible.
We also really want to see the community as a whole take the initiative and run projects for themselves rather than always relying on Steemit.
I will like to have a say here. Community is an integral part of steemit. Users are identified and verified via communities and they help fish out farming accounts. If it will be difficult for the steemit team to create communities and manage them through some trusted users, I suggest that the existing communities or the ones yet to be established be given a rule to set percentage to a particular account that will only be managed by designated users who will be appointed by the steemit team such that when the founders of the community power down, that account will remain for the contributors of those communities. So long as the founders of communities are the ones managing the community account, it is not possible to control the power down of the communities neither can you hold them to ransom for any cash out.
Then those communities should be treated alike who followed all rules by the steemit team. Building a Community is not n easy task.
Truly, finding suitable people to handle this role as in the case of the crypto academy will be very difficult. I now understand better why the team can not do much about other community management.
From the above, i believe a lot of people will buy the idea because it will be quite transparent, free and fair. No one will have to power down the entire labour of the users for himself alone. It would be in such a way that the resource will be use solely to support all those posting in the community. A certain % can be set optionally to help grow the community account.
Hello, just passing by,
Remember that Steemit Inc is not alone here in this big ocean, you have a solid team of witnesses who are skilled people too.
What if some witnesses get started new solid communities? For example, everyone knows @steemchiller and their amazing job, we could invite him to think about creating a new community that you could support with more trust and he can recruit a new team similar to what Comunidad Latina is doing.
This way @steemchiller could support us frequently and you can have more stronger communities with solid SP and protected by well known persons.
Of course mentioning chiller is just an example, you could invite the witnesses you want to run community based projects 😊

I extremely agree with your point. We all have to build our accounts from our own. I have seen that when a community is closed, all the members of that community are affected. And the one who has full access to all the keys of that community leaves this platform after powering down without caring about the people of that community.
I remember when some people came out of BOI after powering down, many of my BOI friends also distanced themselves from this platform.
I really feel what you are saying. The power down carried out by the community has a negative effect on its loyal followers. I was confused because the two communities that once appointed me as a moderator are now destroyed.
The Trust is the most valuable treasure. That is the main key to success. As long as the belief is still there, then we still have a chance to succeed.
Very correct sir. Communities are created by individuals but that shouldn't make them power down because members have also contributed alot to the growth of this Communities. Without members this Communities wouldn't have grown.
This shows how unethical this individual Maybe.
Carrying out this act will definitely devastate alot of Steemians because they will definitely be demotivated
Wow this will definitely motivate people not to lost hopes most especially during the period their community decides to power down. Hopefully, we pray this shouldn't be happening because posting in Communities will always leads to more interactions and engagement between Steemians hence making this noble platform a social and a lively place
You are absolutely right sir. We also faced a lot of problems with many users when the leadership in my country put the power down like this from their account and from the community account. But later we were able to move forward by working on our personal blogs and in various communities. Now again when we plan to work with users in my country, we have a lot of hard work to gain their trust.
It is very sad that when these communities grow, they start powering down. Recently, large communities have also started to step down. Country representatives are also powering down fast, which is a tragedy for the rest of the users. They should be the representative of their country to set an example for others. Unfortunately, they are also powering down. If the power goes down if there is a reason, it is a matter of belief. But these people are power down for no reason.
First of all, only communities that are supporting users should get support. * The Steemit team should check out whatever community is formed and note down the number of Mods and Admins.
Each community should have a proportional share of all the Mods and Admins in the community wallet. ( 10 % extra for Founder or Admin)
A community is not only created because of the founder, but also the users who work in it are also contributing to its growth. And those hard-working Mods who are checking out the community because of their reviews. In this way, they also get the right to have their share in the community account. This way we can control the power down. Because I don't think the community founder will power down at will when all the moderators go against the power down. And anyway, the founder will know that even if he powers down, the moderators will also have to contribute. So that we can control power down. In my knowledge, we should stop power down. People should support other users as well. But at that time they started powering down. It shows that they have no concern with the growth of Steemit.
This is the best way. Most people follow that. Because quality content is always appreciated. Somehow, Powering Down communities leave a bad impression on curation.

I used to think of posting on my personal blog but i thought it was useless as the interactions might be low.
Thanks for this enlightenment Sir
That is where you need to build your personal network through commenting on other people's posts, entering contests etc.
If people like what you post they will follow you and then vote on your posts.
That is explicit enough to understand.
Thanks
