RE: Payouts Over $50 vs. Flags Applied (Feb. 18-24)
Yes, when it affects someone personally, that's when they are more motivated to do something about it.
This started with me, in January. And then grew to other people, and I kept getting "overrewarded" and flagged, and then after 6-7 time I had enough as the payout "overrewarding" "limits" kept shrinking, it was obvious something wasn't right. So I spoke up about it.
People have tried to get this balance of power and concentration of power issue resolve in the past, but to no avail. I decided to do this because I have HIGH REP and have more visibility for people to see something is going wrong, even though most ppl know about it nothing seems to be done... hehe. I knew I would put a target on my back. This needs to be done now before thinking of "growing" and getting more people.
I read that months ago, and I don't agree with some of the points listed. I get your point though ;)
@krnel I respect that it's your right to do this but I don't agree with your approach and I hope you don't take it against me. I don't see it would help the community - it's creating havoc and a ripple of ranting posts related to it. You're not really trying to create a revolution against one person are you? If more posts about it come out and they all go on trending I and the many would surely have a hard time convincing our friends to join and those who already did may also stop cause mud throwing is never healthy - if we treat Steemit as a family perhaps it would be better to keep our family's skeleton in its closet. Perhaps we could create a chat channel dedicated for only this and all those who are concerned must answer any questions thrown in them. I have thought of writing you in the chat earlier on, too but I guess this is also okay. I hope you calm down. For the love of you I hope you can forgive me if I have been straightforward about my comment.
