After using the site for the past few days and observing some of its drama, it's clear that steemit and steem are just plain screwed no matter what.

Care to elaborate? I can't imagine ever being interested enough to spend significant time on the site, so am genuinely curious as to what you experienced there.

https://steemit.com/fantastic/@noganoo/steemit-has-brought-me-out-of-poverty-and-given-me-a-bright-future-in-business-here-is-why-i-think-it-is-the-greatest-platform

I'd take a look at this posting. A guy running 1200+ accounts pisses off a bunch of people, @berniesanders comes and knocks his rep to 0 with a few of his accounts. Dan with 4 million SP comes and upvotes this guy simply because he has a grudge against @berniesanders.

@noganoo's rep shoots back up to 50 from 0 and his post has a valuation of $200 with many people simply jumping on for curation rewards. Other large users who spent their influence trying to flag noganoo's account get pissy and respond with posts such as: https://steemit.com/creepycatman/@berniesanders/dan-is-so-fucking-pathetic and break out their own alt accounts to flag the post eventually sending it back to 0.

But the best part of Steemit is that you can leave that for what it is and then do the positive things you want instead! Just like life!

Cheers, and thanks for your research too! Always great to have a laugh. It sounds unbelievably infantile. But then so is our getting in a fuss over them. Like I said, to each his own.

And, remember, there's lots worse, lots worse, just around the corner. The world's actually a pretty ugly place in comparison. Wink

So what's your account name HR?

I know smooth has over 1.5 million SP, but what about you

https://steemit.com/@cryptographic

Little bit less than smooth. Cheesy

But my last post will give you some insight into my thinking, what I'm doing, and what my plans are.

This thread here on BCT goes into a little more detail about the specifics of my "investment" strategy: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1936239.0

In short, while constructive criticism is still a must as we obviously need to be able to identify shortcomings, I think at the end of the day it's all about moving forward in the positive with each of our grains of salt. Wink

We've got lots of work to do in the crypto sphere before it's ready to go prime time.
