RE: Results From Using 'Promote'
I have not tried it, and I try not to jump to judgement, but I personally will not vote on or read anything on the list.
They have every right to add the feature, and you have every right to use it. I personally will not support pay for votes system. Think it through. Eventually, you pay 99 cents for $1 dollar votes. :) Good Luck!
thanks man!
whatever helps people enjoy the site/get more out of it and therefore help it to grow is great for the rest of us^_^
Well, whatsup, the people who voted on my promoted posts today, made off with a tidy sum. That's a short sited position you're taking and it's likely why, among other things, you are still hanging out waiting to get to 10 steem, after a week of posting. Study the platform and use the tools, you could be getting paid. I made almost $500 today.
Excellent, I am happy for you. I don't tend to get all upset when someone disagrees with me. I am happy for your success! Good job.
Just curious - Are you going to check every post you vote for to see if they boosted it? Because there are a lot of people using the promote feature, even for just a few cents. I'm not sure how ignoring all of those posts would be beneficial, especially when you consider that most of the highest-earning posts are using the promote button.
People want their posts to be seen and your solution is to purposely not read them? That doesn't seem helpful. And it doesn't sound like a great way to curate good content and earn rewards.
No, I wouldn't check all of them. Really my vote doesn't matter enough.
I think it is bad for the overall system of building a social media site, but asking people to pay to have their votes seen. I don't think it will promote good content, I don't think it will promote better features, and if we want an advertising board, that is who will eventually have the money.
I didn't make anything personal to you or about you. So, if you like the feature and feel it is beneficial, please use it.
Your advice is worth about as much as your steem power.
