Now that I am "prohibited" from winning Steem bounties I have been focusing more on my own blog. I think I have responded to all if not almost all of the comments on my blog now even the ones from people who don't upvote me.
A 'brief' summary of the steem blue paper: and why I've just invested another $1000 in the platform
Saturday 5-26
@djimirji up!
💡 @mysearchisover received an upvote 96% :)
Here is an idea that should be developed on Steemit: The ability to time limit a 'punishment', like you just had with the bounty stuff. Seems a bit over the top that this would be for ever and ever.
The Steem Bounty program is a user initiative so they make their own rules up. If I knew how to code I could set up my own bounty system or if I could hire it done if I really wanted to. There is a chance they might give me the coding but I dunno. I'm busy enough as it is though. lol
That's paper is really helpful for all invester

The bots help with curation. You do better when you vote before the bots.
I REALLY think you should sign up with @dustsweeper!!! I can't upvote your comments and have it count unless you do.
Your blog posts seem to be doing a lot better now.
Yeah, I learned to vote/comment between 20 and 29 minutes when I first started a month ago. Seems longer than a month! I learned never be first voter unless you know it is going to be a big money maker, and focus on lower money posts of plankton and minnows unless you know you will get an up vote from a dolphin or whale author. I am beginning to get those on my commentd. I know which ones up vote my comments now - usually 75¢ to 40¢ unless a stinking bot is used by the author and you lose your curation because bots have more power. Oh, and if it is a popular post and the author upvoted themselves, your curation goes to nothing once bots swarm. So much to learn but you get to know if somebody is a bot user and if you should waste your time commenting. I never comment if they use bots in comments unless I am genuinely interested in the post. See, I gave you a compliment on your posts! I read posts, which seems to be the exception in steemit land.
I guess I could upvote my comments but I know that wins smarmy awards and frowns from a large chunk of steemit. I dont want to risk blacklisting or not being able to get in some of the best curation groups in the future. They actually check that stuff before giving high dollar votes and awards. There is also a no bot movement gaining strength and they are taking names of so called abuses by newer users. I just don't want to cross anybody or get on a shit list because you can never get off. I do still upvote my posts, though. They will have to get over it.
I'm going to sign up for dustsweeper now that I am on kryptonia. Lost of newbies with less than a penny vote power will use it and I need to be prepared to get all that dust from them.
All that work and you're not even at 2 Steem yet? :(
You might want to give up on those curation rewards. https://steemit.com/@boboxer/curation-rewards
In my experience the more bot I use the more curation rewards I get.
You can see from my curation rewards the .002 are almost always when the bot vote was bigger. https://steemit.com/@mysearchisover/curation-rewards
You definitely put a lot of thought into this but don't lose focus of results. 5% is pretty good but hopefully you can get up to 10%. http://steem.supply/@boboxer
Let me know when you sign up for @dustsweeper. I could have given you a few dust votes even though you barely upvote me.
Yep, still not at 2 so in a month. All that work? 15 minutes a day, tops, and that is two accounts - one for a friend who abandoned it after one week because the organic sales pitch is 100% a lie on Steemit. They really should stop saying that. Nothing organic here! But I am still hoping it works because if it has to become a second job using bots, exploring schemes, concentrating on how to get the most sbd out of each post, getting delegations from others, etc, people won't sign up or stick around because it will be cheesy and exhausting for social media - it will crash and burn when whales cash out and a better platform comes along. Minds really is superior in its plan and execution, but damn there are some freaky crazy Nazis all over it. That will kill it. Bigger social sites have gone away for smaller issues - like discontinuing a feature of changing layout. If it isn't enjoyable, even mediocre adoption will never happen.
The pitch here is so different from the reality that people already dont stick around and have a negative opinion, which can cause a problem for Steem going higher. I'm just here for the ride right now to see where it goes.
Sadly, 4 of the 5 people I liked when I first came in are already gone. Good posts but they abandoned it. They are back on Medium and getting tips, donations, synero, and other financial compensation I am not familiar with.
I promise to upvote your posts! I actually thought I did. Maybe there is a bot for auto voting?
You make a lot of good points. Maybe I will turn this into a blog post. Steemit is very hardcore if you want to make money and will probably only get WAY harder. I heard on Minds you can't cash out.
I'm pretty bullish on Steem and it seems like this platform was designed for me. :) It's a LOT of work though but hopefully it pays off in the end.
I've lost a couple of my favorite people. :( I think I might have been able to help raise one of them from the dead.
You ought to be able to make 1 or 2 blog posts just with the stuff you mentioned in your comments.
I usually like to trade upvotes but you seem to be one of those people who like high vote power and for some reason you won't sign up for @dustsweeper so I can't upvote your comments.
You can use https://steemvoter.com/ it's a bit tempting because it helps with curation but I think they steal like 1 vote a day from you so I won't sign up for it.
Steemit broke the rules of all forms of social interaction right out of the gate - easy and enjoyable. That will haunt it forever.
It comes across as an MLM scheme - like women in Utah all selling Lularoe on facebook, or old Amway. Smarmy. Gen Y and Z love crypto but hate smarmy and multi layer work for something that should be easy and fun. It would be like going on Facebook and all you see are people talking about how to be Facebook popular. Ugh. MySpace made that mistake, that and the backgrounds and graphics (you know my specialty is cultural history which includes social interactions.)
Steem will be fine if other, better, easier, and more enjoyable social media branches build on the blockchain - quickly. Steemit, not giving it much hope for 4 more years. I could be wrong. Steepshot is the only viable steem based platform I see at present. It is dreadfully boring though. An Instagram killer it is not.
Minds.com is dreadful. They are working out the best way to add crypto and payments. You can't cash out. I think they will have a good product but it may be dead on arrival due to early adopters. Lots of "Hitler was right, kill Jews and queers, go back to Africa, Wi-Fi turns you into liberal," and stuff like that. Good luck getting new users when the attacks are brutal.
so if I use dustsweeper I can't upvote people who don't use it? That sucks! I like to vote several new users who don't make much and won't have the money for it for weeks. I like upvoting them. New users are the ones I try to upvote.
Have you tried busy.org?
You don't know about the .02 payout threshold? All posts and comments below .02 do not get paid out so if I upvote your comments solo it is a wasted upvote unless you use @dustsweeper.
