RE: Is this considered "Steemit Abusing"? Need your opinions.
Hi,
Thanks for your explanation. I still have hard time understanding how 300 SBD became 75. Your normal vote without their support gets about 10 but when they vote, it gets from 40 to 60. Of course, I didn't add the ones that are resteemed by you.
Anyway, I'm so glad you posted here with the matter of money.
I don't take any issue of what they're doing as far as their projects such as Steem Park or publishing a magazine, etc.
They are free to do that but the voting support is too big(as I spotted), then it creates very sensitive vibe around the community.
And that doesn't help other steemians to get motivated to write their stories.
And Steemit is about and for distributed and decentralized individuals so eventually we don't have to work for a company who wants to make their belly full first. We don't have to get to the ideal world fast, I believe, as long as everybody is offered and can get there without one falling behind(we've seen this enough around the off-line world from the past to the present). And we don't really need to have some company/power to get involved to make that happen.
I'll take a look into other subscribers' wallets and their posts to see what is the average rewards from sndbox.
Thanks!
That's just incorrect. Here are some of my other posts of last month without any @sndbox support at all (27$, 40$,40$). The one with 10$ was just the winner announcement of a giveaway.
Speaking for myself, I'm happy to be part of this group to get help and support for several projects, I want to realize, like my @creative-commons initiative, the crowdfunding of the printed version of a webcomic called Phill from GCHQ, my incentive to bring about 2k video and film editors from my Avid Editing facebook group to Steemit and organizing several meetups in my area.
I'm also supporting other members of the group with their projects and I'm trying to curate some good content for the @sndbox-alpha initiative, which upvotes content outside the sndbox incubator.
Although there are sometimes rewards at Steemit, which are hard to comprehend, I try to focus on the positive effects, Steemit had on my life. For example I always wanted to be an artist, but only through Steemit I've got the appreciation and feedback for my creative work, that I missed all the years. I've never found a more welcoming community online before and I'm pretty sure, that everybody who follows his passion has the chance to succeed here in the long run.
