RE: Masturbation for Self Preservation!
Thank you :):) It's like a disease that's spread far and wide. In fact, I'm struggling to find people that don't upvote themselves early... but they are there. The problem, obviously, is that it's destroying the curational side of it. Therefore, people who don't always have time to post chances are reduced to make a bit of income... As you've well said
reeks of self-gratification
Thanks for all your support :)
@therneau - I think I have earned about 0.010 SP from curation in two months and I resteem a lot of content; which makes me think that I should just focus on producing content. I was talking to @carrieallen about profiling couples on Steemit so maybe you could talk to her about doing something along these lines if you are interested?
Ahhh, thanks for checking out my content :):) Sure thing, I'll have a chat to @carrieallen. Thanks for the thought :) Now what you've mentioned is exactly the types of issues it creates. I mean, 0.010 SP in two month's!! Not everyone is good at creating content however they would also like to be involved with the community by curating and investing their time and money. It makes it really difficult filtering through what has been self voted on to ensure your vote gives you a bit of a return on your time spent reading the article.
You'll find that @carrieallen is a lovely person and her partner @chrisroberts is also very nice to talk to. They are also very supportive of people looking to make this community better for everyone, so I am sure you'll get on very well. I read your wife's post about being stressed out in corporate life, which is also why I also want to invest more time on platforms like this to find another path because that's where I've spent most of my professional career :p
Yes, my wife has had a bit of a rough ride. Corporate is definitely not for everyone. Well, it would be great if more people could actually make a living out of platforms like these. Well, I wish you the best of luck on this journey. Hopefuly it'll reach a point where you can kick corporate in the nuts :D
