RE: Ostracism on Steemit: Why or Why Not?
We vote like we usually do and filter it out I guess. What's concerning to me is if a big part of the community already react this gullible to this type of easy to judge scams or characters, how will they act to others who aren't complete morons and know how to behave and trick readers and investors.
Guess it will be a lot more controversial with upvotes and flags when that time comes.
People are on internet for years. Most of us are familiar with all kind of scams and the naive ones will learn on a way. It could be expensive but that's free market.
Okay, well that's something I don't agree on. Sure the internet is filled with scams and other stuff, but that's what blockchain is here to change in my opnion and I'm glad the community behaved the way it did.
I can't talk for everyone, but I have personally invited people to the platform which I wouldn't want to get tricked into putting money up front in the hands of a possible scammer thinking its just another open-source blockchain project that might give them a good return. We both know how most open-source projects are created and distributed to the public, we both know signing up for the Steem blockchain costs you nothing and thanks to the advantages of blockchain and its rules allows you to earn cryptos from scratch, that's the biggest difference between what he was offering and what real innovation is.
Look. You can't protect all of them from scammers. It was nice to chat with you.
Sorry but I must go to mow my lawn now. It's 7.30 pm and I have two more hours till sunset. Have a great one.
I can try.
