Everyone Remove @TheMarkyMark as your witness!

"From what I heard is your post landed in their tribe which a tribe has every right to get rid of content that doesn't line up with their tribe."

and what tribe is that? My post that they originally downvoted had NOTHING to do with whatever they were promoting, I never mentioned "stem" or "stemgeeks" until AFTER they started downvoting me... So what is this "tribe"... oh right... downvoting farms.

Your post landed in their tribe?

Either way, these initiatives failed 2 years ago... they tried to do the same thing by trying to heavily regulate tags and that failed completely for this reason: People getting justly angry after whales downvoting smaller accounts... that's why there was a HUGE exodus of Steemit users leaving the platform a year ago.

Not sure I remember that. I know there were whales flagging people in the beginning .

Steemit's value is insignificant and we don't earn enough to make more because this system isn't new user-friendly unless you pay into the system...

It's always been this way not much has changed. You've always had to buy in and get SP to make it worth your while around here.

You're repeating history with this "STEM-tribe" bullshit.The 'tribe' is actually the perfect name for these things since this entire site is built on tribalism and favoritism and people upvoting all of their friend's posts and comments while downvoting the dissenters or people with concerns.

Nah, tribes are fine. They give reason around targeted, niche content and people can earn based on their interest. Actually, they help with nasty whales as the tribes themselves are self -regulating based on their own rules. The downvote you got didn't make you loose any Steem, it just hid your post from the tribe.

We also have Steem communities which is turning out to be a really good thing. Again, the only reason you were downvoted was an improper tag for a tribe. You can just use "tech" next time and everything will be great.

These douchebags don't control the term Technology. Why would you guys allow them to do stuff like this...

Any tribe can have a tag that pays out in that particular token now.

I don't know you can take it up with the people who created the tribes. I'm just letting you know what happened. You can believe me or not. Its fine.
