Killing A Shit Post With A Shit Post? By Cus Cussington

in #writing7 years ago

Welcome to this edition of the Complainer Guy. I'm Cuss Cussington and I will be your complainer. Please do pardon the French and the charming graphics.

Let me begin by just saying, Crap. All I see is crap, and by that I mean, shit posts. For example, someone posts a meme and because of a bot, they get a decent payout. While another slaved away for hours, days, weeks, months etc...trying to feed you quality content. Good Ol' quality with its golden seal of approval is left to die a forest searching for upvotes. These bastardly deeds threaten the ecosystem of steemit in my most brazen and humble opinion.

Why may you ask? Well philosophically speaking, shit posts water down the value of content here on steemit. "Why is that my problem, I just want to make money", you might say. Well, all we want to do is make money for our posts here on steemit. Yet if we water down the content with shit posts then steemit becomes a zest pool. After a while, you get a flood of well...shit.

Maybe a person gets a single "voteru", as thanks for participating in today's hunger games; however, that equals to zilch, nada, no-thing. Considering the amount of time it takes to create something halfway decent, it bugs me and it should bug you too. We should boycott, but we won't because Cash is king...or should I say steem dollars?

When Some Memer Bro gets a better payout, we should at least complain, a little.

Writing Rick and Video Valerie, suffer for their artistic endeavor. To have it beaten by a one-liner on a picture is a travesty. Albeit that meme probably wasn't even created by that Memer Bro in the first place. Not that we don't appreciate Memer Bro and his meme's; however, that should be reserved for places like Imgur and Reddit. If those communities want to pay out a hundred smackers, then let them do it. This is steemit land of quality content, right?

So, all we've proven here is that Steemit, is the land of the bots. In fact, if you're new and know nothing about bots nor care too(probably because you desire to post quality content)you've just wasted your time.

What a sham and what a shame, right?

In closing don't post hoping for money, unless you're BOTTED up. Because then you're golden and all your shit posts will make money.

Wonder how I can make money from this shit post, with bots? Seriously, I'm not using any. Erggggh!
