RE: 💬 Promoting WOX's Top Commenters - Supporting Steemit's Vision Week #1
Ha ha. Beats me 🤷♂️ I highlighted a dodgy looking community and it turns out they all hate their country reprasentative!

😱 Oh Dear..They maybe hate the country representative for a reason? It's good when it's all out there. I'm pleased to find out that you're really devoted to making the platform a better and safer place for the creative hard working souls. I admire you for caring to read lots, put 2 and 2 together, investigate and then even make the post about your findings something pleasant and fun to read.
I was really devoted - you'd be amazed (and probably a bit saddened) by some of the stuff I've found along the way. But it grinds you down and was a fight that without a big delegation will never be won. Under Tron's ownership, the delegation will never come. So I decided to jack it in and just support this community and a handful of people I like. Unfortunately, somebody more interested in power and money was given the keys to ep04 and announced "a new strategy" which was what I was doing before but letting anybody get stuck in. And when he totally ignored my advice, I decided he needed putting back in his box. One of the hard parts was the vigilantes who were wrong in their accusations.
No doubts I’d be saddened to say the least by some of your findings. Especially I’m one of those people who are seeing everything through rose-tinted glasses. So I might be even shocked. Still the more you know, the better I think even if you can’t change it. Do you think that the platform got a bit better place since you exposed lots of dodgy activity and accounts? 🤔
Yes, definitely. Some of my findings will have changed the way steemit itself works - in particular the community support programme. The old system was being abused - not to say the new one isn't but not half as badly. These people will always find a new way of scamming others and it's a full time job catching them.
I’m glad it got better at least! It sounds like a never ending fight. Unfortunately. One would think it would be easier for these people just to start contributing using their own creations and work their way up rather than keep trying to scam others and maybe even have to move from one community to another. But I guess such is life. There’s always the good and the bad.
And sometimes, you feel that you're putting in far more than you're getting out. Doing that job was hard work and extremely depressing. I'm not getting sucked into that again.
Please don’t 🙌 I can imagine 💻 It also seems a really time-consuming job.
