Can you site examples here Bernie? My wall is filled with minnow resteems and votes. You're barking up the wrong tree here.
I think this one being in your feed says enough... https://steemit.com/steem/@timcliff/the-steem-shilling-contest-round-2-300-steem-in-prizes
Did you read the post? Do you encourage your followers to "shill" something like this, misleading people into coming here?
"Steem has paid out over $20,000,000 in rewards to users since June 2016."
So now @timcliff is a cirlcejerk? He's easily one of the best people on the entire platform. He made a contest to help get Steem more investor attention. he gave it a funny name. The goal isn't to con people over here. The goal is to make a pitch as to why they should. You should be stoked. We want people here using this. We want investor's buying the token. That's how the value goes up Bernie.
Jesus. There's a lot of people worth attacking on the platform, but Tim isn't one of them. I think you need timeout for a bit. Something has you worked up. If the boogeyman on my page is @timcliff i rest my case.
It's good to know you support misleading people to get them here, just so you can earn a little more.
Now I'm really questioning your morals...
Whose talking about misleading anyone? If the contest was some scammy shit that was "lie to investors to trick them to buy this" I wouldn't support it. It's not. It's @timcliff encouraging people to get the word out about Steem to active investors. I proudly admit I support Tim. I still think of him as my Witness mentor. Sometimes I worry you won't be happy until you've literally alienated every person on this platform.
Thanks for your concern, but I'm plenty happy.
@timcliff does literally nothing these days but put out some BS "witness report" and now this shilling contest encouraging people to go out and lie about Steemit to get a few people to sign up. Very nice of him to give back 150 Steem on posts that earn $300+ as well. Great "mentor".
P.S. - Alienating people would imply I wasn't in the first place. That's where you're wrong.
Sorry, but I've followed the conversation by this point and I don't think I understand the first sentence of your P.S.
What does that mean? Of course, if you have the time to answer this question.
I think he's saying that the top dogs on the platform shouldn't spread some sort of "everyone can get rich it's so ez" gospel every chance they get. I remember telling you to put my disclaimer in if you were to actually go ahead and lure your own family and friends into crypto at dangerously high prices after you made that post. I hope you or they heeded my advice.
If we're to be honest with ourselves there is no mathematically realistic way that everyone on this platform can make money. There always has to be a loser in an economic system, whether it be someone else paying your way, the environment that bears the burden of running a network, or tons of people wasting their time increasing the perceived investing value of a social network via their activity levels on a website or series of websites connected to a coin.
I know that you say you only take enough to have a modest living, and surely that's a more face-saving approach than those who just ransack the place willy-nilly, but by this point in the game it's in everyone's collective best interests to not encourage more people to climb aboard a sinking ship in a desperate attempt to buoy the prices so that their naive entrance into the crypto world helps soften your own fall.
Personally I hate seeing idiots get run through the meat-grinder and watching them burn what little money and spare time and energy in a futile attempt to become one of the big boys, so please don't think that spreading such delusions is good for the network or society as a whole. It will only damage steem more if we promote such garbage in the hopes of catching some financially illiterate fish. The people will thank you more if you inform them of the risks and the real costs when all is said and done.
@berniesanders $20,000,000
that is an interesting statistic.
Did you work out the percentage your accounts received ?
That would be even more interesting
Sure you want to poke that particular bear, from experience, it can be painful for a long time.
Is that not an approved question ?
