RE: VIDEO : STEEMit hack, to get more views
I've notice that since the hf19, a lot o people have slowed down on the upvoting. And I guess. I understand it. But I have also noticed that mostly minnows are up voting a lot. And that's great. I don't know, what are your thoughts on that?
people slowed down in order to build up voting power so they can then upvote their own comments @ full power and get the best rewards...lol HF19!!!
Yeah. I figured that much.
It's silly though.. What was the point of the update if posts are making less now since bigger accounts aren't voting as much..?
the blockchain is coded to mathematically balance everything out, does not matter what anyone on steemit does, it's a blockchain
I see.
@sash-pacino since HF19 I personally have not been upvoting as much because I turned off any voting bots I was using. Now Im only voting manually. Which decreases how many times I'm voting.
This change has also made me interact more with the community because now I'm actually reading everything I vote on and if its worth voting for then I will also comment 99% of the time.
Yeah. There are pros and cons to everything. It think it probably makes people think more about what they post too.
Yes exactly. I now have to review everything before voting and I have not found a less time consuming way than reading every post.
It's all good, the connections I'm making with other Steemer's is well worth the extra time it takes.
Well, the funny thing, is that I've made more off of this comment than on my last couple posts. But I followed you. You seem to know your stuff.
I used an upvote bot and I can;t remember the URL to shut it off. it was one that @craig-grant recommended.
Just change your steemit passwords on the Steemit platform and the bot will stop working unless you re-enter your new private active posting key
Many of us minnows cant slow down our voting power with the slide, so we pretty much get dry fast...
Minnows like me vote a lot ... because nothing happens ... we can still see it as a 'like', as it should be. The whole monetary thing could eventually bring this thing down. I thought the idea was to bring great quality content to the internet, but it has become a numbers game. I'm only 2 weeks here and I figured this out. It's a shame this place is great!
