RE: People who upvote but don't view
By speed read I meant that they only read the title for the most part. Even people who view a post don't read it too often. This is why so many people leave comments which say something like "great post". They only leave quick positive comments hoping to get an upvote.
This is not a good blogging platform. However it does pay. Pennies are better than nothing and it's a good source for cryptocurrency news so I like it.
That might be just as bad when you put it that way. I love the platform I just think over the last few weeks people are joining not understanding the platform so they are misusing out of ignorance.
They're missing out...
What peeves me is when some of the same people will then start writing whiny rants about how this or that site is ripping them off -- which, imo, makes absolutely no sense when they're being given (free-of-charge) a place to express themselves and a chance to actually get paid for the privilege.
Finally, the people running the site end up closing down because this kind of SPAM is choking out the good-quality pieces from the places where they have the most visibility.
When that happens, the ones who caused the problems keep on talking about getting ripped-off by the now-gone sites.
That's too bad. Good chances are tht they've missed some gread reading and, likely, didn't make that much money, either.
