RE: Where has the steemspirit gone? Pressing the 'reset button'.
After all the initial enthusiasm about a new site the original purpose can get lost. I suspect a lot of people came here full of hope to earn some money, but got disillusioned. I think we need either ways to ensure everyone can earn something or to have other reasons to be here. Good content is one reason and a fun community is another. So let's keep it fun and informative. I hope we can bring in more cool people next year to build this site into a real power on the web
Have a great new year
Thanks for your comment, @steevc! I totally agree.
But as long as people focus too much on the financial aspect, they won´t ever succeed. That´s my point of view. If you really try to improve yourself, show patience and consistency, the rewards will come automatically. But nowadays people don´t have that patience anymore - they wanna press a button and change the world / become rich. Neither virtual reality nor reality work like that, but people are none compliant in that sense. Instead of learning from failure, trying to self-improve, and develop, they become angry and start criticizing the whole system.
They will all come back sooner or later - and bring some friends :-)
Have a great start into 2017, too!!!
