RE: Got 400+ followers? What about 800? What about 1200 followers, what about 1500? I can explain!
Great post, I felt like that a few times already.
Followers definitely don't mean huge payout.
The platform is growing and if Steem doubles we would all get twice our current payout :).
Check out the last Datas and Metrics on Steemit : https://steemit.com/steemit/@vlemon/steemit-traffic-data-engagement-and-other-metrics-end-of-august-update
(This can also illustrate the fact that followers don't mean payout as I put my heart in it and payout is still limited).
I will not give up ;).
The entire place of steem depends on people who:
Thanks for the comment. I've upvoted it too
I am new here. great piece of advice.
Additional question, don't you think bots and curation are killing the platform?
We all noticed that 99% of posts have twice as much votes as views.
So if only 50% of the readers upvotes it means that that 3/4 of the upvotes are just bot/curator hunter...
Your feeling about this?
IMO this is what could kill the platform.
There are "good bots" and "bad bots". We need "some bots" because new users coming on seem to repeat the old scams of copy/pasta (copy/paste) existing articles on the internet and tried to get paid for it. The good bots watch for that, and post a comment which stops them from getting rich from plagarism.
If I had a choice from "no bots" to "some bots", I would still like bots.
We need good bots.
At the same time, we don't want bad bots
At the same time, we don't want bad users who try to trick and game the system like spammers either.
It's all about a balance thing. Some bots are welcome to stay.. we need them.
Agreed for the copy-paste or even resteembot and even other waleBot that help new users to get noticed.
I am talking about the one just following a curation trail or uovlting everything.
What prevents me from creating 200 bots that will consistently upvotes all my posts and that will get bigger over time?
Thank you for your answer.
Self-respect, dignity, morality, just because you can try to steal from a reward pool, doesn't mean you should.
Agreed but when I even see whales posting 10 posts with one video from YouTube in 3 hours that get paid 10$ per post with just a copy paste. This is unfair in my opinion.
The human race is unfair to each other unfortunately. That's why this system is still in BETA. Consider the fact, that they are trying to do the impossible. Design a computer system that can stop humans from being greedy. It's never been done before. :)
This would be the greatest achievement ever achieved !
