RE: Is Haejln Rewarded too much on Steemit?
There was an attempt at arbitration, an agreement was made between Haejin and Bernie, the agreement was basically unacceptable to 90% of those who voiced an opinion, but for the sake of a peace it seemed the best we were going to get. The agreement was that Haejin would power up a minimum of 4 of 10 posts per day, showing a commitment to the platform, rather than simply cashing out.
The peace was short lived. Depending on which side you are on, either Bernie broke the peace by goading Haejin, or Haejin broke the peace by doubling down on rewards and taking posts from $200 up to $450 each.
In any event, Haejin and Rancho are not going to be swayed from the rewards outside of being decimating in a flag wars or banned by ned. The latter will not happen, as this is supposed to be a self governing society. This is working exactly the way the system is built. The former is ugly and people will be hurt, and some will leave Steem, but that is how these things are programmed to play out.
Love it or hate it, this is Steem... You either skirt around it, get caught up in it, or get crushed by it.
Yes, again, it would have been nice if a more diplomatic mega whale had entered talks with H and R from the getgo. Maybe it would have went differently (probably not).
But yes, this is Steem. Optimistically hoping that the users rise up and this gets worked out using the flag mechanism that is programmed in.
Thx
Yeah, I see that as a big issue for real. And so far, partly because of the "bad press," there hasn't been a significant rise to put a stop to it.
Hmmm, I see. Well then, I will take no part in any kind of "War" for this. Steemit.com is very promising and to me it is a life investment. Need to up the SP so I can acquire a voting bot and get paid on the daily. And reinvest and do it again and again.
