So, the "celebrity" bloggers have been here for so much longer, and before Steemit was ever a "profitable" venture. So, yes, they should be able to earn Steem at higher values than the rest of us new"er" comers.
With that said, I agree 100% that many whales post garbage that isn't worth the platform that it's posted on.
There needs to be a "quality" rating that gets added beyond the simple Steem Power aspect, because currently, that isn't working. What is a better method? I don't know. Therefore, unless we're able to post a better solution, there is very little positive effect that we can garner from this type of posting.
Let's enjoy the brilliance of the platform and try to improve it, as opposed to complaining that there is something wrong without proposing a viable solution.
I'm not trying to put you down, or say you're wrong. I just want you, and the other people who think the platform is "wronging" them, to provide a workable solution to the problems that exist also we can all grow together!
Cheers!
I'm not trying to complain...I'm stating the issues I have, which is what you do when you want to address something that doesn't work. Most marriages end in divorce because a lack of communication. I feel like if enough people had issues with the way it's run, eventually the people who can change it will notice and hopefully do something about it. Personally I have a good amount of Steem power....far less than some though. I just don't like how powerful it that steempower makes some people feel, and how weak it makes others feel. It shouldn't matter...good content should be rewarded regardless of who it comes from, but that's not the way it works. And the celebrity bloggers have not been here so much longer...what, a year? It's only been around for about that time. I really don't think what they're getting paid comes even close to justifying what they do. The system is off, and I don't think it's complaining to express my concern...it's expressing my concern, which isn't complaining. I've done just find on what I've made on Steem. I'm just thinking out loud and seeing what others think about its future and if it will be able to sustain itself with the way it currently is working, but thanks for the input!
