This clown that thrives on blind faith followers couldn't reply to me on his post where he described the 5 simple keys to steem success. So even though I know I'm outnumbered by brainless desperate half wits I'm calling him out, if only for my entertainment. Maybe one lemming will turn around..
Below is my response that he hasn't replied to, let's see if this gets his attention..
#1 it's a pay to play system and investors will be rewarded... Sounds about right 🤔 Not the dream that was sold that created 31,000 dollar make up tutorial posts back in the day but it's definitely the only path forward now. Gotta lock up that investment for over 3 months and pander to the others of the same ilk.
I'll buy steem when I see the return of life changing pay outs and I'll lock up steem power when I'm convinced it's not a ponzi scheme that's dependent on convincing people that a hodl ecosystem that has collapsed in on its own weight has any semblance of a sustainable model of social stratification...
Patience is definitely a must so I'm in agreement with your bookends, I show up everyday to troll clowns..
Now ask yourself just how much one needs to invest to make curation actually profitable? Also explain how auto voting on trending posts is the key to curation success and how by engagement you meant to say kiss ass and never offer anything that doesn't shill to the desperate blind faith followers..
Please define success? For the majority it would be having steem be a legitimate source of weekly income that puts food on the table. Step 1 of your plan doesn't allow for that, so clearly your view of success is coming from a perspective that can afford to be an investor.
OK cool, now ask yourself what other crypto investments force people to hodl and not have any ability to hedge their bets by trading outside of an ecosystem where step one is apparently investing is the key ? I'll wait........ Patience you said right?
The cheerleaders are one of the most entertaining aspects of this experiment in monetized social media.. Wouldn't success come from attracting people outside of the ecosystem and having a decent enough economy to faithfully facilitate both investing and real time earnings? Since that latter isn't even possible without a major investment and one must then be adept at manipulating the market through self voting etc I'd venture to say there are some major flaws that no half way intelligent investor would be inspired to partake in such a scam..
But what do I know right?
@clown why don't you follow your own advice and powerup your 12k liquid steem 😂 What audacity you have to post a guide to success that you don't even follow. You and your kind are exactly the scammers that help destroy this place with your lies. I can't call you an artist because you're not even good at it. What's possibly worse than you spreading your bullshit is the hordes of people kissing your ass and resteeming for an upvote I guess..

Well I came here because I was on medium and got no traction even though I’m a contributor one some of their biggest publications lol, they would even curate my stuff without me having to submit but there really is very little engagement on their platform it’s all a bunch of writing snobs so when I got here it was a chance to actually get people to share their opinion on my views which is what I like
The problem I see in blockchain is you get people who understand tech, people who understand money and people who regurgitate the rhetoric of either of those two expert fields
In 2017 everyone was a winner I mean I bought XRP, SIA, BTC, ETH, XLM, and made a killing on all of them lol! Some people did it with steem and are living on past glories
It is mathematically impossible to get a decent ROI on STEEM at the moment and you have to be honest about that!
Crypto and steem especially is held by people who either have no income or looking to supplement income there are very few who could afford to invest and leave it there long term!
The only way the chain will have value is if all that hard earned steem that’s dumped on the market is picked up by institutions looking to build on the platform which we might see with SMT
I’m bullish on steem don’t get me wrong but I’m also realistic, everyone has a cheer leader even Bitconnect and the US dollar to Enron lol pay no mind to panders

This Jessie will stick around and to see whats going to happen, SMTs created by institutions that have or can at least attract communities seems to be the logical focus.
I just was reading about the delegation trust, and it's quite breathtaking realising the scope of what's already on the table. The governance aspects can really make your head spin..
I was mostly inspired to post this one sided fictitious dispute due to my bewilderment that so many accounts here are not like you and I, in that the last thing they want is to hear an opinion or have a discussion. This begs the question what's their intent here? So, being an inquisitive prick I felt I'd force the issue.
This guy is just one of many, they seem so robotic and lifeless, it irks me.. I mean I understand I'm acting entitled to assume anyone should respond to me and interaction isn't compulsory buy FFS this place is boring enough as is. As I said I just read about delegations from stinc and the community interplay in that process. I suppose a silver lining is I'm completely devoid of any interest in big internet or social media so here I am spending my surf time on steem. It would just be great if I didn't see the fervent alignment with these pandering for pennies posters...

Lol well not everyone who creates an account everywhere is going to bring with them some sort of personality that clicks with you!
I had these same internal gripes and then I realized well this place is so small you’re going to come into contact with users you don’t resonate with and only once we get more users can we drown it out
Put enough people in a room and they’ll gravitate to those who will be their friends too little and the relationship is forced and quickly strains
Those people are allowed to pander for pennies everyone has their space! I normally unfollow if it gets too much for me!
With regard to institutional money it really would take only $20 million to remove all liquid steem off the market which is actually ridiculously cheap if you think of the amount of RCs that company would then have to onboard users and do whatever they want on the chain
The way I see it is they’re going to augment into a decentralized WordPress and if they can pull it off a dollar or even 10 dollar steem wouldn’t be too far off!
What would interest me is if it can become a scarce resource how the lease and delegation market will work!

All valid points with the personal stuff, I do unfollow but lo n behold it's such a, small ecosystem it's bound to get resteemed by someone I follow. You're right though they all have their place and I should appreciate the inept as in theory my success should be easier to manage if the competition is incompetent, biased or uninformed..
The movement into a decentralised word press would be most welcomed by me! Something will have to gobble up this steem...
I hinted at tau yesterday, are you at all familiar with their project? I'd be interested to hear your thoughts..
As always I appreciate your more seasoned shall I say mature approach to steeming... I should probably just get an alt going for sheer entertainment purposes and let skram focus on not being a shithead..

Tell it how it is!!
The thing is, this kind of opinion is not specific or exclusive to Steem.
It's the same kind of bullshit espoused to anyone looking to make money from spending their whole day on social media.
Forgive me if I say I make more money per hour in a job I love than anything any Common Joe could hope to make in that fake world.
And I think if you actually looked under the hood from these folks claiming to be making money through social media, you may find something else anyway.... I know I few of these scammers -- they get rich from selling you dreams of getting rich on social media. ;-)

Yes indeed, this is definitely not steem specific, it's only that steem has a good gimmick going in that it's the same old shit but packaged with glossy new trending words.
But, yes I totally agree and good on you for doing work that you love. My old man used to always say if you find something you love to do that pays you will never work a day in your life..
Cheers and enjoy the weekend or if you work enjoy that as well!

We're a tough crowd, but fair.
Folks that don't appreciate honest opinions won't like it much here.
To me that is a good thing.
Too many people in protective bubbles trying to shut us up, so they can pump and dump, imo.
Hold my beer while I get some popcorn.

I love beer popcorn and of course drama. It's funny how easy it is to get people riled up here, even when they might sorta agree they'll still want to fight lol..
I just put my perspectives out there and while they're not bullet proof nobody can tell me I'm totally off base, of course they'll try.. thankfully I'm not a professor of steem and have other things going on in life, I'm not here just to be an antagonist or protagonist, we seem to lack much in the way of a middle ground..
Plenty of popcorn to be had if these free flags start flying..

My idea of success would indeed be 'having steem be a legitimate source of weekly income that puts food on the table.' In fact, that's how the platform was sold to me back in the spring of 2017.
I've been feeding at the trough ever since and I reckon I will continue to feed, as I really have nothing to lose lol. While I can ill afford to shovel much money into it, I can spend time here, and find I enjoy it, for the most part, though I no longer expect it to be my path to retirement (cough cough).
My posts don't amount to squat and I am curious to see how the curation angle will work out. We'll see in a week's time, I guess.
Welp... I better go get my blab on!

Yeah you have to be a lemming to think that buying into, posting, commenting and curating would ever 10x your profile, but who tries to argue against an undisclosed multiplier, because after all 10x is not 10x the steem or 10x the rewards, but I'm sure you factored that in before you responded.

Alright well I'm not sharp enough to follow your sarcasm or what your point is.. Their post was how to be successful, I'm arguing to define success? Not about ROI

You're arguing that this place is a scam, that that guy is scamming people, and maybe now you get it because you aren't even sure what you're arguing about or that question was a typing error, and what you're arguing about ain't "define success", that's a cute thing though that you dedicated a half a paragraph to but which was there seemingly for you to say that steem is like other "crypto investments", hinting at pyramid/ponzi schemes that force people to lock in.
Your keywords are:
Schemes, scams, the circus.

Ahh OK yep basically, thx for helping to clarify my vision.. I'm stupid and think steem is stupid, carry on.. No need to waste your time on me just the same as I shouldn't bother with Mr. Fuch
Did I say circus? Oh clown I suppose that could just be a creepy party clown

No, I never said anything about what you envision, did I. I said that what you were arguing was that this place is a scam (that no intelligent investors would take a chance on) and that he's scamming people, and that you did make a passing query about the definition of success on your way to argue that this place is a scam, but seemingly now it's so petty and meaningless that I dare not waste more time on it.
