RE: Growing Unhappiness with Upvote Bots on Steemit
I really have no idea what to say since people just circumvent the system here at steemit. I am just wishing that "whales" help the "minnows" so that they would be encouraged to make a better content. It is just one factor that I wanted.
As for the system here, @beanz I think has some sensible proposals.
I believe to expect a society to "do the right thing" is flawed in nature, as there will always be bad actors in any community who will find a way to circumvent the system.
It is important ot make sure that a system is put in place to minimize such problems.
There are definitely some whales that do help minnows, but to think that all whales will rally together to lift up the community is not going to happen in my opinion. Much rather we have a system where people have a level playing field wherein there is opportunity for anyone to go out there and get what they want!
Its quite a chaos here at steemit actually.
It is like a sword or a knife, some use it to stab and hurt people. Some use it to cut and prepare food.
Indeed! Such is the nature of any good thing. However, given that it is a place that is precious, there will be those who will be here to protect it.
I definitely strongly believe in what Steemit is about and see a possibly great future for it going forward.
What I hope is that those who want to protect the platform will be successful, for there will always be those who will focus on abusing a good thing.
