RE: Cancellation of Candidation as Steem Representative
I think about this decision. All I see is how little support you have from the community. I think the least that should happen is that you get half a million votes and 5 million comments of support. On the contrary. That you don't give up. You are one of the few who give their all for the platform. I know that for a fact, and from the front row.
Very few people actually take action and help. Those who should are living in their own grandiloquent world. They are bad artists who hate or try to denigrate. They lack talent. The difference between a complete artist is that they create their art out of passion and dedication. Not for money. Or ridiculous fractions of any cryptocurrency. That would be selling your soul. And in no way is that good art. Because art without feelings leads nowhere.
The time I've spent on the platform has helped me understand. Yes, I have the best impression of many whom I respect and admire. You are on that list.
But you can also smell the stench and rot from miles away. The vicious circles. That is not the life we need, not by a long shot.
He who feels happy is deceiving himself, so may karma assist them. It takes simple common sense to see the votes on something that, even if printed in gold, could not have a shred of artistry.
So it's sad. It's a great loss for this platform. I don't see any solutions; the promotion is terrible. Those who should can vote automatically for the same people who are chosen.
I have faith that some of those who should be betting on this platform will stop drinking daiquiris somewhere warm.
Jeje. Como dice la Rana René:
Has dicho una palabra clave: Karma. "El que roba, tarde o temprano, termina robado".
Tengo algunas lecturas pendientes de tus publicaciones. Pero he estado bastante ocupada. Pronto pasaré por tu blog. Tenía tiempo sin publicar y acabo de hacerlo. Por cierto, me gustaría que por lo menos vieras el vídeo. Me interesa tu opinión. Un abrazo.
I should mention that I have to write or paint at odd hours. Last night, around 2 a.m., I was finishing a story to enter in your contest. About the painting of death. The power went out and I lost everything I had written.
Today I haven't had time and there's been little electricity. The first thing I read when I got back was aneuk's resignation. So a lot of things are going wrong. By the way, you're on my list.

All those lost stories sound familiar. If you write in Steemit there's a "draft"option. It never worked great for me, a title should be given (the last thing I do) and if course you should hit draft every few...
I also noticed that with me google translate at times remembers the last text I transkated same for wirdcounter.net
Both worth trying out. Place a text. Close down open again (or after shutting down the computer) and see if it's still there.
Telegram is also an option.
If you write offline the computer saves it or?

Espero estar en la lista de los buenos, jeje. Sé lo que vives, amigo, y quisiera que no padecieras tanto. Ruego a Dios para que las cosas mejoren, aunque esto suene a "frase hecha".
A poco, Dios les da las batallas más duras a sus mejores guerreros.
I don't have much faith in karma nor a punishmemt after death. A fact is that this only works if you believe in it.
Any suggestions how to promote it in countries where are still people who can invest? /And what will be offered in return?
If you promote the platform as the place where you can earn cryptocurrencies, writing any content of poor quality (or farmeando) can enter many users and then leave. I think one of the big failures is that there is no respect for quality work. It can be promoted as an art platform. For artists. (How many artists are there in the world, with interest in promoting their work. Why do I see so few on steemit. More farmers than writers and painters). Many successful sites where you even pay membership. And they are by writers, to cite one example. But more value is placed on the art, the writing, what they do. The quality of the content. What do you think happens when an artist comes in and sees the mess of what is commonly voted on. Demotivation, the real artists are almost all sensitive. They get very frustrated. How many thousands of accounts are abandoned?
And the best thing I've seen is what you do, promote dialogue. Vote for comments of value. They should, always, follow your lead. Contests. Interest. Criticism. Dialogue.
And answer in a clear way the doubts of the communities. I know very successful platforms, which despised the user and today are wandering ghosts.
PS: Clear about what the platform is about. Art. Farming. Social networking. Casino.
I have no idea what the platform syands for. I ask it since years what to promote. I've been asked as a writer, but many who arrived during/after the hardfork spread/heard a different story (dropna few words or picture and you get paid. No one said it had to be original, mentioned plagiarism, AI, and so on.)
If it comes to it it's for investors. The rest is to make it a bit more interesting. It could be more, way more but not if no one cares or wants ro invest in a platform and the future and everyone relies on a few to act and fill all the wallets. Why should those few do that?
