Hope to see you there!
I would have given you a vote for this if you didn't decline, thanks for seeing it our way and may you continue to create here.
It's not so clear cut if you don't post for a week nothing will happen, and you won't have the STEEM police banging your door down demanding you create!
If you post quality material too often, then you find your followers have no got the VP to keep up with you and you may miss votes as they want to spread them around more.
There are no rules like this, just relax, don't buy votes and keep going.
I'm following you now as I do with the small percentage who see sense and don't take it all personally.
The ones that don't either leave in anger or alienate themselves from the community spouting off bad language and telling the world how terrible they have been treated.
I am not sure I still see it the same way as you do, but I can understand why you do. Once I get a better grasp of the way rewards work, and why the way in which one receives votes is such a hot topic, I may be able to have a more definite position.
As @joshman said yesterday, the reaction by many to a down vote is visceral. My reaction was no exception, only multiplied by the fact I received tons of them (and they are still coming.) After some introspection, I found that a good post, with time invested, going to waste triggered me more than anything else. Plus I don't like being ignorant and as I discovered yesterday, I don't know as much about Steem and Steemit as I thought...not even close. So having my ignorance pointed out just exasperated it.
That is an appreciated thought. Thank you. I followed you, @joshman and @steevc. I figured anyone who took the time to try and help me understand their viewpoint, without being a jerk about it, is someone worth following.
You remind me of a boss from years ago. He was the support manager, but now has his own company and writes content like you on Facebook.
He used to be open-minded about technology but now pointedly ignores all my approaches to him sending his content to the chain..., ah well.
Oh no, I am all about the potential of blockchain. Especially with proof of brain and other concepts.
I was meaning in the context of your content.
I think you've earned a few new followers simply by being reasonable and forthright about the situation. It's a coin flip how people react, but you seemed to have landed on the right side and not let your first impulse get the best of you. Cheers to that!
