RE: I Am Sorry for My Last Post!

There's nothing wrong with capitalism, it drives competition. And the reaction is not anti-capitalistic, it's realistic. People do not care what goes behind the scenes, Steemit is already a complex environment, even if you try to explain to people delegation, revocation, transfers, markets, costs, cryptos, etc.... they would still be confused. But let's pretend for a minute that people buy his $50 deal, for lack of information, and when they get on Steemit, they find out they could have got the same deal for FREE by using the Steemit signup process, or by paying the minimal fee of 6 STEEM ($6 in today's price). Then what? You end up with a load of unhappy users asking for their money back NOW, not in 90 days. Giving them excuses to explain things won't make them any happier. Such a deal is bad and not fair.

When something occurs and is underlined by concerned users, ignoring "those jackasses" won't make the problem go away, but will only make things worse for him. He should stand up and face the consequences and stop repeating his mistakes, then apologizing, then restarting again. It's a pattern, even the blind can see it by now.

FYI, not disagreeing with you, just picking at some particular points for the sake of discussion.

"But let's pretend for a minute that people buy his $50 deal, for lack of information, and when they get on Steemit, they find out they could have got the same deal for FREE by using the Steemit signup process, or by paying the minimal fee of 6 STEEM ($6 in today's price). Then what?"

They'll feel like people who bought something at a store when it wasn't the lowest price available? Or the day before a sale?

"You end up with a load of unhappy users asking for their money back NOW, not in 90 days."

Users unhappy with Jerry's service.

"Giving them excuses to explain things won't make them any happier. Such a deal is bad and not fair."

Can't argue with that, these would not be satisfied Jerry customers. The dumb ones might also blame Steem.

Don't forget the crocodile tears.
