Even if you are fighting out of principle, I suggest you let it go and concentrate on providing us with beautiful posts - so that you have a group of friends who look forward to seeing posts by you. Isn't that why you are here? To make friends and maybe, if lucky, a bit of money - not that money counts for much right now, with SP1 being $0.79....yeah, this is a good time to concentrate on widening your circle of acquaintances and friends

The money will come later...unless the Witnesses change our rewards, as they are thinking of doing (btw, I'm not speaking of #themarkymark in particular, the majority of witnesses are looking to reduce us to 50/50 with the curators - hmmm...guess what most witnesses are...but they cannot see that many are already giving up, so I fear they'll cut Steemit down to where it was a long time ago and they'll have to be content to vote each other only.
