RE: Torundel the Shitposter!
Yes i understand what you mean. I did not gave up steem and even though i stopped posting i did my best daily to take part at all curation groups to improve the so called Proof of Brain system. I like the process and i enjoyed it even in my worst of times. There is a system and there are also the people. If people cultivate an ecosystem that rewards users and not posts the system is a failure. if we stick to a system that rewards valuable posts we might succeed.
I have a lot to say about the series of events known as the Justine Sun hostile take over but i would rather keep it for myself.
The human part - the community that is rewarding quality is of course great. I have seen that in the most corrupt and politically defunct places.
But when any old tosser can buy himself a position of power that is above these efforts it is a flaw... and it can't be repaired by good efforts... at least if the goal really was proof of work. Justin Sun is just a late example of this. It existed all along.
I have already read both pros and cons on the Justin Sun case and it seems that what it all sums up to is that the system can be compromised bigtime, but I would like to hear your version. Why hold it to yourself if you have a lot to say? Hopefully not because of the Steem/Hive flaws that I am mentioning above.
