RE: How Sweetsss it is

in #steem5 years ago (edited)

It happens all over. I would suggest that 95% of all rewards go to 5% of 'users'. Because the people who could do something do nothing, it will carry on. I am not a good content creator but if I were as is your good self, Id have left by now.
I have pointed out many times that the Steem economic model is not fit for purpose but all the benefactors are hardly going to push through change are they?
Steem is the same as the off chain world. Greed and secrecy. And this is supposed to be a brave new fairer world.
Thanks for speaking up but I note that even you daren't put the @ in front of haejin . He wins.

Sort:  

And @tarazkp - I'm having fantasies now of coming into some money, vesting a million steem totally independtly of this account and then just flagging one abuser at a time.

But it's just fantasy!

A more decentralised and real solution is a tough one! It would require some kind of voluntary self-tax to devote to flagging!

There's a play on words there I accidently stumbled on... 'devote to de-voting'

lol, "devote" to the blockchain. :)

Maybe just comments could have an effect on some abusers - yr nemisis chbatist fr example who I've seen in the steem forums audience (surprisingly).. eg.. 'Please don't disrespect me by paying to vote this post above it's true value' thx'

Then again that'd make him UA no 1 if enough peops did it!

I used to tag him but it is of no use now. @sweetsssj can take all of my rewards if she wants with her voting power 10x over but, I'd say that she doesn't care much about it as no one really cares much what she does anyway.

Is it that no-one cares what she does, or is it that people have had to reach a point of not caring. If you care about it, but can't really do anything about it, then all you're going to do is make your time on here stressful. So sometimes you just have to let things go for your own sanity.

It seems a typical rich poor divide kind of scenario. The top few percent take the bulk of reward, leaving the majority scrambling for what little it's left. You can keep striving and working to reach a point where you can be a big earner on a website like this or even YouTube, but it's like fame, only a few will make it. So then you decided if you want to keep striving, or take up the mentality of knowing you'll never make it big and just enjoy being the consumer and the little bits you can benefit from. Those that don't take that second route either make it (rare) or give up.

I bet the majority of people on here would love to be able to make it an income to support them or make them rich, but I'm not sure if there's any system that can do that for everyone. You need the masses to funnel it to a few too get that benefit, or you spread it equally between everyone, which means no-one is getting rich.

Don't know if that makes any sense.
