RE: A letter to My Best Friend
I just wish they'd clean up their act. There's more money to be made with an honest approach. And I don't just mean @therealwolf. They've ignored it all though for two years so whatever. I'll get shit on for even talking about wanting things to be better around here.
If it makes you feel better, some of them are starting to see them as detrimental ventures.

Only now they're starting to see it?
Exactly what I said here:
https://steemit.com/life/@nonameslefttouse/how-to-cook-steemit-crack-and-destroy-the-neighborhood
Comparing the paid votes to crack cocaine and the effects crack has on a neighborhood. Drives down property values. I saw that from day one. I was right, and I said it all to help, so we wouldn't be here, in this situation we're in, and they fucking ignored me.
"If the value of the token was high, nobody would complain," they say recently. But I said all that shit, and more shit, during STEEM's all time high, because I didn't want to see the value plummet. So many these days are scratching their heads, wondering why STEEM isn't rising with bitcoin. They put the money in the wrong hands, and ignored all of us who would have done things to make this place lively and thriving. They took a huge shit on EVERY single quality content producer here. Called us names like circle jerkers... when all we did was produce content and HOPE for a goddamn vote, and since some liked our work, we got votes. I started with nothing, and worked up. How the hell can someone with 1000 SP like I had way back in the day be part of some elaborate scheme to share votes... when my vote wasn't worth SHIT! People just voted, organically, didn't care how much money I had. I wasn't alone either. There were thousands of us producing cool stuff and enjoying our time here. Nearly all of them are fucking GONE now. People move out when crack moves in and you're left with SHIT... and the property value drops. NEVER recovers.
