RE: Why I Think Steemit Will Die
did you even read the post?.
"The drop in quality will come from up voting crap not because someone posted crap."

Lol @skeptic. Did you even read @xvickx's response? Looks like you just cut and paste the same response for everyone.
it does? weird only thing I see me copying and pasting is that one single quote.
yes I did read it and he just keeps repeating the same false points about how its for spam/plagiarism ect. If he actually looked at the article he would understand the point is to grow the block chain, nothing to do with quality. in fact the more spam that is posted the faster the chain grows. If people stopped up voting the plagiarized content then it wouldn't be a problem.
Down voting does no good at all for anyone. Not the person gitting flagged, not the flagger, and not the steemit server/block chain.
I'm sure you would understand that if u did more then scan thru the post only reading keywords. When everyone has left the server and the currency value drops to zero because of the flagging you will no longer be able to live in your false reality.
I hope u realize you flagging is the cancer that is killing steemit. Maybe write something productive instead of spending your time hunting down people to flagg, or writing posts about who you have flagged, or are going to.
You've clearly never read even one of my posts.
Yes I read your post but it it doesn't entirely make sense so it is not surprising that people are misunderstanding what you are saying.
That just proves you don't have a clue what you are talking about. Growing the chain with spam is a waste of resources.
Anyway I've wasted enough of my time responding to you. Learn some social skills if you want to win people over.
It normally helps.
I don't understand it? O.o
how is growing the block chain with spam a waste of resources?
do you not understand how the block chain works?
yes you have done nothing but waste time repeting the same flase propaganda over and over but not backing up anything .
oh im doing it because of (insert reason here).
The reason your doing it has nothing to do with the effect it is having on the server.
I hope for the whole server you realize how you are destroying steemit with your flagging.
Of course I read it - I understand that upvoting crap is going to be a downfall, but that's always going to be a trend here because of the ability to monetize and because most people don't understand the concept of quality.
When I speak of bad content, I'm talking spam and plagiarized content. The "junk content" that gets 200 upvotes is a result of nothing more than having a large following. In turn, it encourages people to create mediocre content in an effort to monetize, so yes, you're correct. However, we can't control who likes what or who upvotes what, but we can have some control over illegitimate content by downvoting it.
I will say that I only upvote things that I feel offer truly beneficial information, such as your post.. There's a learning curve here and there's always going to be since there's an incentive to make money. With time, I hope this will level off. I also hope that some of the whales will do their duty to upvote quality content and downvote anything plagiaristic or spammy.
What you consider junk is still blocks in the chain. Without people adding to the chain the value of the currency drops to zero. If the "junk" posts aren't making large amounts of money why do you even care let alone feel the need to go out of your way to flag them? New users are fleeing this place like crazy because of people abusing the down voting.
Down voting people will kill steemit. you are going to end up with a server with 10 people on it and the currency will have lost its value.
This is a new server and it is already slowing down on new members and daily I watch people quit because of the flagging. you will all be left with an empty server, a block chain that stops growing. and a currency that is worhless.
But hey, you get what you sow.
I only downvote posts where people use stolen images and claim them to be their own photography, or, where people post spam, or, when people plagiarize content.
Whether I think someone's post is "junk" or not isn't my problem. It's not fair to downvote a post just because we disagree with what they have to say. It's equally unfair to upvote content that holds little to no value.
wow, just wow
have fun down voting people and destroying steemit for everyone else I guess.
