Trying to ignore all the controversy recently and just having fun!

in #steem7 years ago

What’s with all the doom and gloom and controversy around here these days?

I’ve been saddened here recently about all the controversy and discussion about vote buying, delegations and draining the reward pool.

Once again I’m the forever optimist and trying to ignore all of this. It seems that the developers and witnesses around here are all know about this and if its’ really a big problem they’ll fix it before everything comes crashing down. I am trusting them to do what best for us all. I’m also not banking my entire financial future on any investments in STEEM and this platform.

So I’m just going to keep having fun around here, making friends and learning. I feel if we all get caught up with this controversy it’s going to perpetuate a self-fulfilling prophecy. I’ve always be an “ignorance is bliss” kinda guy.

I feel steemit has been one haven of the internet I found where most people are pretty positive, friendly and it’s not overrun with trolls. Sure there are people that don’t seem to really care about the community here, but it’s easy enough to just not cross paths with them.

I’ve found some great niches and groups of people and I’ve very happy to engage in my established circles. There are communities for everyone’s interest. It has also been such a great place to learn about this exciting world of cryptocurrencies.

I came for silver stacking community here on the #steemsilvergold tag and I must say it’s been such a great place to hang out. It’s filled with great generous people where we have lots of fun and support for each other. It’s the one place where I haven’t seen all this discussions regarding the future and problems with steemit. If you have some interest in silver or precious metals be sure to come check us out and engage in the conversations there. Also silver and precious metals are a great place to move some of your cryptocurrency holdings if you do think the bottom is going to fall out around here.

The problem with Steemit is.... Nah!! Just keep doing what you're doing. It is sad to see the whales at war, but best to stay out of it and not take a hit yourself :)
P.S: I may soon get my hands on some silverware and join the Stackers!! I do have some WWII silver medals though..(my Grandfather's) does that count?

Haha, you don't need mountains for silver to join us man, just an interest and curiosity, come over and see what we're all about

I definitely will do that😁

Beep! Beep! This humvee will be patrolling by and assisting new veterans, retirees, and military members here on Steem. @shadow3scalpel will help by upvoting posts from a list of members maintained by @chairborne and responding to any questions replied to this comment.

Don't know man. Controversy be damned, this is just a forum to freely share whatever you want. I don't even pay attention to it all. If you can take advantage of buying a vote, do it, whatever, I do.
I just check my little groups, mainly just woodworking and steemsilvergold and teamcanada, pretty much disregard a lot of the rest, especially any of the negative Nelly or Debbie Downer posts. ( No offence to any Nelly or Debbie steemers out there). Peace

I'm with you man, doing that same things, following my tags and dodging the negativity!

yes, let's have fun...

Woot Woot !!🎇🎆🎉🎉🎇🎆🎈🎉🎇🎆🎈🎉

Nice post phelimint. I agree #steemsilvergold has been a fun, positive place to be.

Yeah, it's a nice little safe haven from the rest of steemit sometimes.
