You know what. Forget all that I wrote. I got an hour and half massage for 10 dollars and it hit me like a ton of bricks this platform really doesn't reward content, sure you've got to post something decent. But It's all about befriending (not kissing ass, that's quite negative) those with clout. End of story. You write to others, you help others, and they will feel compelled to do the same.
I just wanted to build a big old travel library of info and experiences and see who came to my table. I'll give it a try and befriend everyone I can on here especially those that can actually tip the money jar more than two cents.
Sorry to waste your time with all that reading. Thailand is really awesome. You'd love it here. Where else can you get a message everyday of the week and eat out for every meal healthy, and live on the beach without breaking the bank.
Thanks for noticing me, I didn't mean to be negative. I was just buying into the content is king stuff I heard, and the if you build they will come. Nobody cares what I write just a few like minded minnow travelers. It's all about I scratch your back you scratch mine on here. Would you agree?
Yes. I love Thailand too. I'll be back there one day soon. I suspect you are correct. Connection matters more than quality unfortunately. That's a characteristic of a third world economy... Though we can transform it. I've been sponsoring the Minnow Support Project and various contests and a minnow only bot too. We need more dolphins, more minnows seeing a reason to stay.
I like the human side of your posts. Parts of Bangkok you can navigate by walking within the megamalls and only leaving to enter the next megamall. I did that a few times when the heat was bothering my wife.
Yeah it's a great country. I've brought this issue up to @biglipsmama who has connections and clout. She's right on page with what we are discussing. @luczypher (72) and @twinner (worth 134k in steem (66)) Maybe connecting with them and pushing the issue to even higher ups may be something worth doing.
On my level @diabolika has now had a very similar experience as myself. Great writer. Had her stuff resteemed by a whale her first couple weeks, now she's on her own making scraps like me. She's bummed. @justinchase was doing well, he left. @travelman gets a pop of 100 dollars then doen't understand why he can't break a dollar every other time. @fanstaf doesn't great work and has expressed his frustration, yet seems to be doing so-so all things being equal.
From my financial background perspective. It seems as those who joined in the February up to now time frame, got in late on a good investment. Anyone who go in about a year ago not only are doing fantastic, they are all tipping out eachother handsomely, while us newbies pissin in the wind. for lack of a better expression. I hope this has given you some more insight into how things look at out level. Thanks again for caring as much as you do. It's best to do what you can on all fronts as you and these other 1 percenters are suddenly heavily invested as well, and to see the currency get cut in half or worse would be pretty ugly for those in your position, like watching a stock crash with 50k in it.
Thanks for remembering me! I agree that I'm currently only doing so so. But I still have great hope for this platform. Who you know definitely makes a big difference but so what if we don't get any whale votes. I will continue to write and be active and build a following. In a year my followers with a current 2 cent vote might have grown to have a 10 cent or 50 cent vote or more. Lets grow together and become the new middle-class.
You have a better attitude than myself. I see a shit load of hours of my life passing by for a big old question mark. Seeing the chart of www.steemwhales.com and how the money is distributed to me shows dysfunction in the system and has me questioning everything. Even the stability of steem as long lived crypto currency. On a more positive note. Yes Thailand is great. I'm off to the train station on my way south to the islands right this moment. Have a great day! Dan
