RE: A video answer to Jerry Banfield's Idea of Removing the flags

in #steem6 years ago

Great point. I like the example of the dogs (and the number of people killed by them every year). I think there are many purists in the platform who use flags very hastily. Some mistakes, out ignorance, should not be penalized.
For many people this platform is really challenging, the whole lobbying process that would allow you to get established and flourish. Some people are just not made for this kind of socializing/negotiating pressure.
The idea that the profitability of your postings does not depend so much on its quality but on the kinds of friends you can make is discouraging, to say the least.
In any case, i agree with you that the price of Steem depends on other factors, other than the flags.

that my friend, is a truth that does not make many people comfortable. Content is not king, at least not right now its not... Relationships are 70% of the game.

Absolutely. That's Steemit's Inconvenient truth. Fortunately, there are people, like yourself, who every day show some genuine generosity in both sharing key information that help newcomers grow and giving support. There is hope i guess, that things can be improved or that at least you have options as to how to grow. Of course, one path will be slow and long, the less traveled by road, sort of.
