I don't like Steemit !
Any social network has its advantages and disadvantages!
And Steemit them. Grading system articles generally not based on the quality of written articles.
Participants more positively advantageous to assess those articles that have a large amount. Many put a positive assessment on the article with a large sum - even without reading it!
A typical pyramid.
It turns out that one large amount - much easier for him to gain even more. The rich get richer and the poor poorer!
There is actually a manipulation of public opinion. If you take a few people with a large sum of purse - can always appreciate they need post. Other people seeing a large amount automatically vote without even reading the article. Not to mention they agree or not.
Is manipulation of public opinion. Have not yet adopted the large scale and the social network is not degraded. Otherwise, garbage will be collected one article.
We need the community to decide. Or there will be high-quality or materials in the pursuit of money resource is degraded. No evaluation of materials for quality written articles.
I have noted the same issues, but where I disagree is that I was poor before Steemit, and can't get much poorer by being a member here. :D
The total amount of all capitalization community grows. And is growing faster than your own savings. Therefore, if you take always the capitalization of the community as 1. The rich get richer and the poor poorer. And the pyramid is beneficial to get as many of the poor.
I am having my doubts about this too ... too much like a money game I got sucked into back in the 1980s ... not sure I'll continue here for much longer for that reason.
Most Viewed and money given to those who are rich, popular, and is on the list at bots. Should such a user to post any meaningless nonsense, and in a few minutes he has views 100 and 300 dollars.
