While this can indeed be a problem for new users I must say I have barely seen any spam comments @roundbeargames its still something I would need to look more into.

consider that this post is based on anecdotal evidence from a few days back, so it's lagging a little :)

i'm guessing even if you have low sp, if you wait for your mana/rc to charge, you should be ok. new accounts should be ok too as long as they're getting the delegation that'll help them get started.

as far as spam goes, i think the overall activities have simply plummeted for a few days. i'm guessing spammers will be back once things normalize 😆

but as long as it's not too much we should be fine. no platform is free from spammers so..

The oddity about the "clones / competition" that people keep saying they're running off too is... How are they going to be any better?

Let's say Weku, for instance, starts getting traction. They are going to run into the same exact issues and will sooner or later need to have their own RC debacle. I'm holding out with Steem. Rough roads now for sure, but that just means we are going somewhere.

For those that abandon ship, they're just prolonging the inevitable. Jump from Steem to Weku, post there a while, get mad when Weku introduces Weku-Creds, jump back to Steem, and be behind those that decided to stay. You'd be shooting yourself in the foot just to ignore a minor scratch on your hand ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The question is how much of a dictatorship is weku going to be? Depending on how much is decentralized we just dunno whether its gonna have the same problems or not. For sure its gonna run into troubles. Its likely to be just as centralized but i dont wanna go all in on any prediction.

Im not gonna defend weku because all im doing is copy pasting. People are not abandoning ship (at least not in big numbers yet). Its more like a 'just in case'.

Therell always be 1000s of other platforms. People have always been cross posting. Nothing more :)

Oh yeah, the cross-posting thing I understand. Diversification, don't put all your eggs in one basket, that sort of thing.

I was more just poking fun at the people who are up in arms saying things like "Steem is over! Everyone one to insert random steem clone here, it's totally gonna be perfect!"

Growing pains happen with literally every website, Steem is no different. Be smart & cautious, sure, but don't forget the smart part ;^)

haha yes i get it. those people are quite a small minority. also, i have lots of 'ifs' in my statements. i'm only pointing towards the possibilities of having your worst nightmares coming to life. i know i like to exaggerate shit and i may sound like i'm saying steem is garbage. but at the end of the day i'm still betting big on steem. i just like to express my concerns :)

I gotcha, expressing one's concerns is healthy for a stronger platform.
Also, I appreciate your consistent voice in this community. Lots of people wander in and out [ which is totally fine ], but I like the fact that you maintain your blog on a regular basis, it gives me something to look forward to 👍

thank you 😌
people change their minds all the time so i'm fine with that too. it's part of the freedom that should be guaranteed. conversations are good 😃 definitely looking forward to seeing more.

This is another great site for checking how much comments, votes, post an account can make.

user name at the end...

Yes! Thanks for the info! 👍
But seems like it doesnt tell you how much a post would cost?

It's under...

Est. RC for a comment
Est. RC for a vote

The results seem to slightly vary from steemd.

The site is set up by @holger80. He has some other posts in relation to RC's.

This post by @taskmaster4450 is also a good read. He talks about the possibility of RC delegation pools.

@taskmaster4450's got some great points. especially when he said steemit is not the golden goose (steem is!) 😄👍

i wouldn't agree 100% that the rc system would make steem more valuable though. right now steemit inc has all the control in the world to change the prices however they want to. it's a dictatorship, whereas we need free market solutions.

i'm guessing he's talking more about the potential of the rc because things like 'decentralization' and individual 'verification' hasn't happened yet (if they do, then steem would absolutely explode, to the moon!).

but yes. absolutely amazing steemians! i haven't talked about @holger80 but they both are 😎

i'd also ABSOLUTELY LOVE to see rc delegation put in place. i have no idea what steemit inc is planning so it's just my wish.
but it'd be fucking great for minnows 👍

I think I read RC costs will be determined by the free market. I don't think they've come this far to let things fall apart. We'll see.

Here's an interesting post by @mcfarhat who runs the @actifit app...

HF20 Tutorial: Claiming & Creating Discounted Accounts

Demand is put into consideration yes, but see how steemit inc wrote 20.4 update that increased the rc budget (supply) by 10x. Witnesses simply roll over so i think its fair to say steemit inc has 99% control 😐 (for now)
Itll be very difficult for the community to get together and create a force behind change, but if it does, itll be all democracy and freedom. If it doesnt well i guess we deserve the dictatorship from steemit inc 😂

Nice article too👍
At some point a killer dapp that somehow enables seemless account creation from the users perspective would be perfect 😃

hahaha, in fact I do not understand much this new update.
Thanks for sharing your point of view and a little information.

Well thanks for coming anyways 😄
Just keep watching your mana and rc!

gracias por tu información y orientación@roundbeargames,saludos y que pases un lindo dia

you enjoy your day too @petrarodriguez 😎

I am facing a lot of problems in steemit.
I do not understand anything about new updates. :(

You should be able to post since you have plenty of rc right now.

Let me know if theres other troubles

Hhhh,,, y y, I really understand friends ...

We must continue to be aware of all this,

Oa,, today I post about my original data, because many friends ask why my name is almost the same name as @good-karma, today I answer it. Hhhh

haha man i was kinda wondering but now i know 😄
anyways i guess the next few days (or even weeks?) on steem will be quite rough..
we'll see how many users leave 😦

Hello my freinds, this contes t in partiko.
Are you not participating?

what contest? i'm not using partiko anyways. too lazy :)

Just make it maskot partiko

Posted using Partiko Android

i understand .. tnx for ur advice dear.......im following your advice

let's also keep in mind that resource costs have been going down. so over the next few days (or weeks even) we might see some notable changes.

i'm just afraid it's gonna take way too long and a big % of minnows are gonna leave.

it was a very bad news for steem user

For almost a week yes. By now most users should be able to use steem without problems

yeah.... now i hve no pblm

they made some changes for the newbies too. Now a complete newbie that just came in or have the sp delegated when you first join, at 100% RC has around 22 comments and over 100 posts-votes something like that

Yes i only had anecdotal evidence where confused users were getting locked out 😆
Hopefully when the dust settles people wont feel like they have to pay to be social.. Hopefully.. 😌
