I think we can clearly see the difference in principles between @ned and @dan.

steempowerpics (69) · 7 years ago (edited)

🤔 Yep. I understand everyone including Ned is entitled to their opinion, but he basically just STOLE $2,641.80 from the rewards pool which is counterproductive on a "declined payout post".

_{To that point please DO NOT upvote my comment.}

This is a HUGE shame for steemit? When i joined last July the phrase's reward pool rape and flagging war were unheard of. Now its rampant. I wonder, is it just that greed has risen along with the price of steem?

Bots behaving badly! ... seems a number commenting here are expressing concern, not so much on the tremendous EOS development update being exaggerated or not. ... attention is drawn to the rights and wrongs of self voting highlighting issues relating to draining of the reward pool and possible solutions threw designs of better, fairer, far more advanced systems for the curation of content, generalized models built on EOSIO's custom content framework.

the problem is that this was never supposed to actually be a blog chain but rather a mutual aid chain where people can upvote what they want based on the value they believe they will receive.

Since consensus was given to a man with no vision this is where we stand on the first use for MAS.

self upvoting is not the problem. the problem is that noone should be able to downvote without potential consequences.

remember if i didnt have stake...i'd basically be unable to build anything because ned and other whales have seen to it to scare the shit out of anyone who might upvote me.

And where would that lead us other than dissempowering people like me who actually work to get things done? :/

I tried getting the screen shot now when I heard Ned upvoted himself for a two line comment this is very bad and wickedness of the highest order..a friend of mine told me that
its bad to downvote a post because it reflects bad quality to the post ...so why down vote? If you have any issues solve it amicably because we are following your steps ..Dan keep.up the good work

thelovejunkie (56) · 7 years ago

Certainly @mosunomotunde but one thing is for sure what ever might have happened that has led to this, no matter the magnitude, it can be put behind by allowing love lead. Both @dan and @ned are two great inventors that has made this idea called Steemit change thousands of lives. I only hope all these doesn't have a negative effect that might lead to regrets later on. #LetLoveLead

I only hope @ned and @dan can see how much vision their project steemit has birthed,maybe they will see themselves in a new light. Steemit is changing the world and you two have made it possible. Love should just lead you two and help put all the bad times behind. You both are bigger and better than this. Please, let love guide you.

$0.00

j-stark (48) · 7 years ago (edited)

600$ is a pretty large sum.

And I wouldn't say this is fair in the most negligible of senses at least for the fact that he declined his payment which points quite explicitly to the fact that he's not after the cash.

But who am I to judge? Maybe there are other reasons attached.
I even just got to know that they were both having a fued. Guess I have been inactive for a long time.

By the way, I love your meme/image. It's just spot on @drakos

I can't wait for the whale complaining on eos to be similar situation. When everyone thinks the whale problem is unique to the steem blockchain. Steems wealth is similar to USD wealth distribution, with the exception of the steem owned by steemit inc. but then ripple, stellar and Bitcoin all have original creators holding a massive chunk.

I don't think downvoting @dan was right. He already declined payment and yet was downvoted.
