RE: Steemit's Got Issues! Community Discussion - Whales Cannot Decide Everything - Take 1
Petitions, love the idea! As for whales deciding everything, hell no. I think it all be put to a vote every time. Of course, I don't think some accounts should be able to weigh in, say for instance the rep 28 that only made one post and has been here a month. He obviously has no vested interest in the platform. But, people that are putting the time in and have dedicated themselves to this platform should have an equal seat at the frign table.
Great response! We definitely all need to be more involved in community decisions! When it comes to decisions, amount of sp should not factor in.
My thought about the 28 guy you speak of is that they also have a voice that needs to be heard. If it is that 28 person may very well feel more invited into the platform as a whole and could have something wonderful bubbling under the surface that they finally reveal after feeling that way. Excluding them based on anything really will not bring a feeling of equality and could potentially add to the feelings of exclusion or oppression.
However, if they are really not involved on the site and have actually dropped off like that, they are not likely to join the discussion or weigh in anyway. It's more about the feeling that they could if they wanted.

I don't know, if he's posted several times and is trying, then yes sure, but if he's not actually trying to figure out 'the formula' or grow here, than no. I doubt a person/account of that caliber would show up at the table anyway lol
likely not. :)
This is some beautiful discussion. I'm a total noob here and still working on my first post(I want it to be good 😉) but I just wanted to point out that posting frequency need not be the criteria by which one is judged. There needs to be people involved in this platform as consumers of the content that the creators post. Those people are just as important imho. (Which may not be worth much as I am still learning the platform, hah)
I would say that you are right that what you are posting is more important than how often.
Also your demeanor behind posting. If it is clear you are solely after profit with no care of your posts it is one thing. If you are not writing good posts yet you are wanting to be here and learn to grow this is another.
