RE: User Authority, Resteems and the Drop-off. Stop your friends from trying steemit.
Ironically there are quite a few early adopters I remember who did make money hand over fist at first; constantly powered down and cashed out, saw their payouts slowly reduce down to a trickle; then left, complaining that those with influence were 'doing it wrong'.
This is after they themselves had foregone any opportunity to wield said influence.
Which is great, it's part of the way the system was designed.
Keep hold of your stake; or regret it later.
It’s kinda crazy to think where those people would be now if they had stuck around and stayed powered up! Like you said though... it’s all part of the circle of life around here.
I do wonder if some of those people ever pop back into Steemit to see what’s happening and kick themselves for cashing out when they did. Who knows. 🤷♀️
Well, they may still have no regret, it depends on individual. People power down for different reasons, only those who hum about influence are hypocrites.
