I think they should pay creators anyway, because our content will stay here forever and we are promoting even our old posts. I explained everything in this post Share the earnings ! - It's that easy ! and that's really easy to do. If not with money, they can pay us with upvotes from @steemit , I don't understand why that's account is not curating or delegating to little communities like @dcooperation and others. Why we have to burn that much to ask for delegation without even knowing for sure if we will get it or not. Anyway, I hope they will do something about that and support all the creators who are leavin for them that much content to monetize.
