RE: APPICS Referral Program Statistics!
Hi @fycee,
Thank you so much for taking the time to eloquently explain some crucial points to me. I very much appreciate it.
I agree, there is nothing wrong with the 10% cut, but allow me to lay out some points as well please.
1.1 mil is the total SP with the account, this includes the delegation. I'm well aware of the native SP that is in the account.
Apps that take a 10% cut have curation guidelines, one example is eSteem, ( and that amount was lowered after the 50/50 curation hardfork) which I was a part of the curation team for quite some time. When it comes to curation guidelines, it doesn't matter if a curator "likes" your content, it's a matter of doing their job and voting if the post is within guidelines. That is the entire purpose of the Steemit Inc delegation. To pick and choose on the basis of friendship (or other reasons) is a misalignment and mismanagement of resources.
Furthermore, curation is 50/50 as it stands, so yes that 10% makes quite a difference when you're already giving 50% back to the curators.
Although I get what you're saying, and I somewhat agree, it is quite disheartening to see unfair distribution of the reward pool by an account that has the potential to make a positive impact.
I gave you a follow as well, and I will continue to use the app for a while, but I will only post so much until I stop using the app if the curators continue ignoring my posts.
I am very confident that my photography is good enough for some small support from an app that is benefiting from my use of the app.
Thank you again for your very nice supportive comment, that was kind of you :)
Hello @futuremind, thank you so much for the prompt response. It is always a pleasure to onboard awesome people like you. Well yes i guess that has been the case why i was ignored when i was still using the steemit platform itself that despite the fact that my posts can definitely spark a triggering discussion from awesome people like I am, i was left ignored. Until i started doing palnet which was the same thing. It's the only time now when i was with appics i was encouraged by the CEO himself to join the Ambassador program in which i am grateful of. I am not confident I was able to satisfy your inquisitiveness that's why I'm gonna ask help from another appics leader available right now. We don't wanna lose exceptional people like you that's why we are extending this effort to keep you from holding on to this platform that i found myself excited every single day that passes by. If you are confident that you have the top of the line creativity from your photos then you will be recognized by the team. We always check the new posts from time to time. see you again anytime soon.
Yes, you very much were able to. Your motivation and dedication is encouraging, and I'm humbly grateful that you've taken an interest in my inquiry.
Appics is lucky to have people like you :) I'll give it some more time, maybe the curators just didn't see my posts. So far, I've had nothing but positive interactions with the Appics community members!
I have to perform some photography shoots, so it will probably be a few days until I post again, but I will not give up on the app.
Thank you again friend.
