RE: Steem whales are a joke. Look at the steem power this account has!! (it's a bought and sold account)
@egjoshslim
Sorry about the momentary upvote/downvote thing there. I have something I'm working on and it didn't quite work. I meant to upvote your post not your comment.
I'm upvoting for visibility because it directly reflects something I mentioned previously
I don't think anyone is going to flag you, but I doubt this posting will recieve the attention it deserves. In the posting I just linked I briefly discuss power and account selling and reputation / credibility selling.
I can tell you feel as passionately about this as I do, so if you want to hop over in my thread and mention this part of the discussion going on over here, I'll let folks know I upvoted you. For what it's worth. I don't have any real power, but it seems like people are beginning to listen to the problems and are open to hearing about solutions.
Thanks!
added a comment to the post you linked, thank you again!
You are very welcome! Feel free to keep the conversation going and now you're just about in trending, you should also hunt out others who are not getting the visibility they deserve. We'll start a revolution by getting the minnows, dolphins and whales to see what proper curation looks like. #payitforward see how many topics we can get into trending via network effects.
Imagine that using a social network to be social and network. Whodathunkit?
thats an awesome idea!! #payitforward in the form of promoting each others post when the relate to the same subject with the hashtag added ofcourse! about time people used the literal meaning ay ;)
Thank you buddy!! Power comes in many forms, influence being one. Having influence shouldn't be buyable, thats the problem with the world already. Steemit can be different. It requires us as a community though.
this thread died :( i feel i should repost at a later date? what do you think?
