RE: Day 10 - Shooting the rapids of the Shoalhaven River
@netuoso - really? u upvoted your comment for nearly $7, on my $2.50 post.
come on man.
and u wonder why minnows arent making any effort anymore.
This post is 5 months old. And I upvoted the comments to add to the power of the msp3k account. I've since stopped doing that as it has grown a little more to where I wanted it.
To answer your question as to why minnows get discouraged and give up. It's because of the horrible attitude of entitlement that they carry. Such as yourself has just demonstrated.
It's ok. I'll make sure msp3k doesn't issue votes your way if you have an issue with how I grow the account to further help people.
Imagine someone complaining about $2.50+ earned on their post very little people care about.
fair call @netuoso just a tad disheartened is all. i guess my post was shit. took a few hours to write.
I never said it was shit. I said little people cared about it. Maybe that means your followers expect different content. I don't know.
What I do know is the service I built was used to resteem this post via my account as well as three others and you were given a vote directly from the msp3k service.
The way Steem works is people that invest more or earn more in the system have a larger effect and vote weight. I invested quite a bit into Steem. How much have you purchased and powered up?
So coming at me like I am not giving my fair share to the community is beyond ridiculous to me. I also spend a lot of my time programming and building on Steem. I also host several services that cost me monthly to maintain. All of this to repeat the fact that Steem does not exactly favor what is "fair" for everyone.
When I first started on Steem I got zero votes or traction on my posts. I eventually purchased enough SP to get myself noticed while still creating content for my followers. Eventually the followers became organic and I didn't have to worry so much about powering up to self vote. It isn't easy to "make it" on Steem. But I don't know how much money you would have earned on Reddit or Facebook ....
yeah i think my problem was, that i thought an awesome post would reach the masses straight away. in hindsight, i should have gained a following, and THEN put out my better content. oh well, live and learn :)
after getting some advice, im now working a little harder. hopefully, now I have over 500 followers, there'll be a bit more interest in my works. sorry, i got so snarky, i was having a bad day, with some of the drama that has unfolded in the past month.
doesnt make it right. i believe i owe u an apology.
and to answer the how much did i buy in, all i could afford at the time, which was $3k
alas, with the current down trend in btc price, and some loans to people i thought i could rely on, im at half that.
oh well, as the old aussie saying goes. 'such is life'
It's all good. No hard feelings. I was snarky too lol.
Social media is a very weird place to try to understand. I am getting there slowly but a lot of my early work was ignored too!
