RE: Steem Challenge! Make $$$$$$
Wouldnt it be easier for you to just create content people are interested in reading and as a natural consequence of providing valuable content, people will upvote and resteem?
Creating content people like isn't really easy.
Isnt that the point of a platform like this? Those that create the best content get the most reward?
Indeed it is :)
yes that is the original purpose, to create good content to reap the most rewards but unfortunately if you see some of the whales...they put out crap they get hundreds or thousands.
So your response is to come back with a phony scheme to make money rather than combat the whales crap content with good content. Also, you might think their content is crap but others see some value in it thats why the upvote no?
go look at @craig-grant's content and look at @yuliana tell me if that's not crap.
my response is that the system is not a fair system, so if we need a boost from time to time why not?
I think the point that you are missing here is that it's really not about the content...not from what I can see. It is relevant yes...but then not really....hope you understand me.
just fyi, people upvote whales so they can get the curation reward, the content can be crap.
is this what you call good content?https://steemit.com/photography/@craig-grant/we-went-to-pick-up-3-new-dancers-for-the-strip-club
It's horrendous. We don't disagree. But combatting it with random upvotes on an empty thread won't change the infrastructure.
at least this will bring some awareness that there's something fundamentally that needs to be changed.
In India, there was a problem with cobras during the British rule. The Brits decided to give a bounty to anyone who turned in a cobra. People began breeding cobras and turning them in to get the bounty. The brits caught on and cancelled he bounty which caused the breeders to just release their cobras into the wild INCREASING the population even greater. I think you can see where I'm going with this one.
You are right - this is not a good idea to combat crap with more crap.
Plenty of "good content" never gets SEEN!
no, it's not.
you have a point but the purpose is to help others boost their steem power as well, plus it will give more reasons for people to stay on this platform. I know a lot of people are discouraged after HF19 and I think we all need a boost.
