RE: People forget the steem roots -- and I'm not kidding. Steem $3.50/steem is easily done again
we couldn't effect anything with our downvote to actually make a difference or keep garbage in check.
That's where I disagree. Sure, a 500SP minnows 100% downvote don't look like much. Not so if it's 1000 minnows. Every little action counts, expecially if coordinated. This reminds me of a project called @spaminator, not sure if the spelling is right.
But then for me to say that shows that I'm idealistic. Maybe you are right. But I'm not one to lay low and not do anything if I can do anything about it.
I didn't say not do anything, there's all kinds of actions one can take yet to think that one persons malice or greed can be stopped by 1000 people is certainly only an idealistic sentiment, yet one cannot argue with reality or that the abuses are taking place because those with more than enough resources aren't keeping it in check.
that's a very pessimistic view. nevertheless there's truth in it. I try not to dwell too much on it though, we do what we can do in our small little capacity.
It's not pessimistic to point out the reality and even less very pessimistic, and my "view", if it's a matter of perspective at all, it states plainly the lack of action on Ned's part and consequently there's nothing commendable or excusable for sitting on one's hands when they're at that level of influence and importance. Our top stemian is haijin, I blame one person for that and it's not the donkey.
I don't want to point fingers in any direction. But I can neither agree nor disagree with you.
I sometimes think a total rebranding "Antshare/NEO" style is neccesary if we wanna Steem going anywhere. Along with all the structural change that comes with.
