RE: Steem Basics: Why Steem is an Application-Specific Blockchain
I see you've been a user of this blockchain for over a year. Thanks so much for participating in our experiment and contributing to the discussion!
If it isn't outright cheerleading, its passive-aggressive responses that don't help anything.
If you believe in Steemit, great - because I prefer seeing both sides of the coin, instead of just posting snarky replies.
This monoculture needs a reality infusion.
You say "I prefer seeing both sides of the coin", but you throw only tails. My bet is on the truth lying somewhere in the middle of your extreme negative position to those in the "outright cheerleading" group, as is usually the case in these type of arguments.
Another way of saying this: money talks and bullshit walks. If you're so certain of Steem's inevitable failure, you surely must be shorting the hell out of it, yes? If not, you aren't really convinced of the certainty that you're trying to convey here.
Thanks for making my point for me.
Wrongthink gets penalized, shouted down, dismissed.
This monoculture needs a reality check. Luckily the market is good at providing it.
Hey, I'm open to debate about the true value of Steem or DPOS in general. That said, the debate is DOA when all you can provide is an argument against POS and then retorts against valid arguments that point out certain safeguards that DPOS provides over POS along the lines of "Wrongthink gets penalized, shouted down, dismissed.", which aren't really retorts, if you catch my drift.
It's more changing the topic, which makes it look like you don't have a valid retort.
Moving the goalposts, eh? Fine, do what you want.
My final retort will be when the Steemit blockchain seizes up. Keep on pushing the hopium, because its not going to make a difference.
Thanks for proving my point. Ya got nuttin', punk.
People are so funny when they're wrong.
Keep diggin' that hole.
Wrong about what? About you trying to slide your way out of a rational debate with loads upon loads of self-aggrandizement and enough trolling quips to sail ships? I think not.
I think I squarely drove that nail in on a single, graceful blow of my hammy-ham-hammer, Sam I ammer. Not really though, my real name is James.
Thanks for the pointless time-waste of a discussion, though. Truly. I am forever grateful. I will share the story of our legendary blockchain encounter with my grandchildren and I'm sure they'll pass it own to their own. And on and on we'll live, if only as an exaggerated tale of two foes. It's something.
