So the going rate for a weeks worth of quality content is $30? Where a shit post by a Minnow with a few whale friends can earn $500+ in a day? Not bad... ๐คฆโโ๏ธI think youโre missing the point here.
No man. Stick around. you are right, but if all good folks left, that doesn't achieve anything.
Today I woke up with a new mindset. I was dead against paying (begging) for votes. But I will do it now. Just to get there in the front. My content is good. I can do even better given time as well. I can see from what you wrote that you have the same notion.
But I wish to add something to this by pulling out something you wrote about and I haven't seen much of yet on here. It is a level of honesty, frankness.. and not about the pay-for-votes nonsense, but about the 'support' groups that are actually jerk(coughs) channels. Most of them seem to be like that, with just (you said it) a hand full of exceptions. You said it!
after looking over the way the groups are operated, it is the same cult mindset that pervades the general platform where the powerful operate in some kind of monarchy, while pretending they are open, equitable distributers of genius. The quality of posts are often good, but the support is given to people that 'play the game' - so they put people through a process, handing out colors.. statuses, issuing do not do this and do this so we can do that for you. I's nuts. I decided to play my game dirty, because dirty is cleaner than that sort of pretence.
Whatever you do, reconsider what you said here. No one will hold you to what you said. Do what you know is right and stay. Because evil thrives where good men do nothing (or leave).
Wow. I dare say you will change my mind with this comment. Damn. Bravo good sir! ๐๐ You just gained another follower. Excellent.
lol gosh
We aim to please โ๏ธ๐ถ #MinnowLand ๐
I think I see the problem.
Indeed, its no joke. Pretty serious in fact. Whales supporting shit posts, or possibly Whales being manipulated for their vote. ...the list goes on and on...
That wasn't the part of the problem I was referring to.
Hey buddy, just noticed you replied. Let me know what you mean. thanks. ๐ค
in response to this
What would you suppose I was referring to? Why, your magnanimous character! What else.
Why do you compare yourself to other people? You need followers for reaching like minded people. Optimal would be like minded whales and that will come with the time, trust me!
Important:
Don't shoot your best bullets in a time where there is not yet a target to hit ;)
Thanks buddy ๐ค
You are so narrow and pessimistic, and impatient and full of yourself.
B Gone.
Thank you for your comment. It's definitely easy to say that when you're sitting on the top of the mountain looking down. (You have quite the account behind you... $692,493.61) The rest of us aren't so fortunate... and your comment doesn't just carry over to me, you just spoke to ALL the Minnows and Plankton who are experiencing the same damn thing. Keep that in mind.
I wish my upvote was worth $70 and not 7 cents, because you deserve it with this comment. Literally saying what everyone else is thinking but are too scared to say it...
Brother your upvote is worth solid gold! ๐ Thank you for your comment and your time. I know itโs valuabe. Cheers ๐ป
Hereโs to being real an not kissing ass! ๐ช๐
Thinking out loud, but there are times I wonder whether that is the reason my posts don't do well any more. At first I was flying (I went to a 54 rating in the first two weeks!), but I don't upvote or follow anyone that doesn't interest me and that could be the reason some of these big boys don't read my stuff anymore. Sometimes I feel that I have to 'play the game' and say things that everyone wants to hear if I want to turn my content into profit. Anyway, good for you for speaking your mind. If you do choose to not come back hopefully you would have gained writing experience for your next front page reddit post!
Check out my latest post, Iโm staying buddy. ๐ค Too many damn awesome people to leave, itโs all of you who are the rockstars. Motivated the hell out of me... and true, I think as soon as you go back to being yourself and damn the concequences, just be free, be you! Write whateverโs in your heart, see a beautiful sunset that moves you, put it into works and share with everyone here. They will love you for it, just because itโs you. ๐ Namaste my friend.
Keep in touch.
Same to you mate :-)
I'm one of the more tragic cases here on steemit I feel. I have over 500 posts. Most of them are pretty good I feel. I have made much less than you. I have worked so hard and have so little to show.
The reason I stick around is I enjoy it otherwise and I hope someday my luck changes in terms of earnings.
Thanks and take care!
No I totally feel you in that, thatโs why I was one foot out the door until everyone pulled me back in with good sound reason. Donโt write for reward, break away from what โpeople might want to hearโ and lose yourself in your passions. Trust me. As soon as you let go and say โdamn the concequencesโ youโll find people value your true inner voice. The Real you! And if they donโt, to hell with them as you donโt want them as followers anyway... there are a ton of people here just like you and feel the same way. I just happen to creatively โlose my shitโ and vented for all of us at once... no way did I expect it to blow up and go viral, but it did. All because people were pissed. They thought their awesome work wasnโt good enough when โI know it is!โ Ive seen it on reddit as well as other popular social networks. So donโt beat yourself up, dig a little deeper into yourself, if you werenโt getting paid and didnโt give a shit about whales or minnows and just wanted to write... what would you write about? That right there, thatโs what you write about... you could write a post right now just to vent and get a ton of different responses, and when the negative comments come, donโt take it personal, spin it in a positive way. - I read this one article one time, a Fairly Large Woman posted a photo of herself as she wanted to overcome her fear of wearing a bathing suit. - people ate her alive in comments! Beached whale, out your clothes on youโll scare the kids! All kinds of mean shit... know what she did? She SLAYED THEM with kindness... one lady said she was fat, the large woman responded. โYouโre so beautiful and thin, I wish I was likeโ all sorts of kind comments, and EVERYSINGLE one caved and apologized. See people crave reality in a digitally led world, they sometimes comment mean shit forgetting that an actual person with feelings is on the other end... what Iโm saying is donโt lose yourself her, keep yourself. Think about everything and anything. Write about what โyouโ think is cool. Eventually people will be drawn to you... they canโt help it.. itโs reality we all crave... I guarantee you read every word in this comment. This is what you do. Dive in rockstar. ๐๐ค Have a great night.
Iโm off to dreamland... ๐ญ ๐ด ๐ค
Thank you very much! Well I will keep trying and will try to take all of your advice, keep your examples in mind, etc. One of my Sons is autistic and I am considering writing about that. Thank you again and best wishes!
Omg thatโs a great topic! ๐ You totally should! This would help people understand more about Autisim. Brilliant. ๐ฅ See, write from your heart and let your beautiful self shine and people will pay attention... itโs like a people magnet. No one likes fake people or comments, know what I mean? Cheers ๐ฅ ๐
Best wishes! :) :)
Tell me how you really feel.
