RE: Steem - Problems Seed Solutions

in #steem6 years ago

I'm so sorry my friend for definitely replying late the truth is I have less knowledge of the technical side of steem and this is the reason why I hadn't talked about this issues in a very long time the truth is that the voting system is oligarch in nature and seeing people getting 100% vote irrespective of their content is really terrible in my opinion it seems a little bit fascist and this will make it possible for people to just create whatever they like because they know that they are getting 100% votes that is why I think the voting pattern and voting system should definitely change no matter the kind of community these people belongs to I believe good content creators who does not belong to any part of the community are judged based on what they bring to the table and not because they do not belong anywhere this is definitely shrinking the audience and concentrating on just a few amount of people and even when I think have a plan b in order to get past this hurdle I do think the selection pattern for vote should definitely developing 100% for some specific kind of people for example this beautifully written post could have been a video blogging that should earn massive reward but the truth is that sometimes we lose faith in even video blogging because of the uncertainty that comes with not knowing whether your video qualifies what you call quality because really you do not know the definition of quality being held by a group of people who are called curators

Hi m8

the truth is that the voting system is oligarch in nature and seeing people getting 100% vote irrespective of their content is really terrible in my opinion

Sure, you're right. I held back in this article in the way that I approached the subject, mainly to stay as objective as possible to encourage debate if it was seen by anyone who may disagree, or be involved with curation. It solves nothing to get involved in battles, but rather to try and change hearts and minds. I think I made a reasonably logical progression in my argument in why certain 'gaming the system' behaviors are short term gains for the ones gaming, over larger long term gains if they changed up the way they do things. I just hope that point comes across to anyone reading.

this is definitely shrinking the audience

thanks for saying that, as this is definitely one of my central points and the more people who recognize that fact, the better IMO.

for example this beautifully written post could have been a video blogging that should earn massive reward but the truth is that sometimes we lose faith in even video blogging because of the uncertainty that comes with not knowing whether your video qualifies

I couldn't have articulated all this in a vlog. My main weakness is camera shyness, but I've been writing articles for over 15 years, but more recently much more than in the past with some freelance work. I wish I could get that natural flow of thought to mouth for vlogging but maybe it will come with time.

Thanks for checking out this post Jose as the inspiration to finally put these thoughts down into words came from watching your vlog :)

Obviously your works are more than amazing I couldnt even qualify as have as an editor of a video content and this has really made me miss a lot of opportunities I do have great video contents but editing them to a certain satisfaction is what I really couldn't do enough and I was thinking this is the reason why I think my contents were not really rewarded as it should even if so many other people resist the same topic that I have done in the past and the get massive reward for them by these people make me really accept the fact that the rewarding pattern which dte the decentralised applications embrace is definitely not fair however not to dwell on this issue but to accept the fact that the system is capitalist and oligarch and is meant not to be fair because I find solace in that
