They are not offended, they play the offended to get the support at their side. It's all part of the game (manipulative behaviour, playing the pityful and insulted one.) There's a name for it, it starts with narcis... (not the flower) and it's easier to blame others than react like an adult. Spreading doubts, fear with a big smile is a tactic..

No matter how we see it, the main problem is what is promised to those who are introduced, and there's no awareness if it comes how this platform works and why should there be if votes are delivered on a golden plate and there's no need to post anything valuable?

It's hard to answer if you do not represent Steemit Inc. and try to build something.
