@trumpman @drutter, people complain Steemit doesnโ€™t communicate but when they do they get trolled, I do agree it shouldnโ€™t have been pinned but in reality steemit.com is owned by Steemit Inc so they have a right to pin their own communication. Look at least they are trying, I appreciated the sentiment, most companies that care wish their customers a happy holidays.

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย 

I agree that we should all come together on this wonderful holiday. I believe it could all be part of the Festivus holiday where you "air your grievances". I myself think that we need to all come together so, from the deepest part of my soul, Bill, myself, and horse face would like to wish you all a

Is it a treason to be jolly?

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย 

No, not at all. I am still out shopping for Bill though. I asked him what he wanted for Christmas and He just said HOE, HOE, HOE so I think that means he wants a Santa outfit.

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย 

Bernie told me Bill was looking for this kind of hoe.

Do you see any meaningful communication? All I see is blah blah blah with no action while they continue dumping their stake. To any logical person, this " communication" looks as a last ditch effort to not cause panic as they exit with the maximal possible profits. Meanwhile Ned has dissappeared after breaking his scheduled appearance TWICE. Trolling is the least their "communication" deserves.

I have had many people not show up for important meetings and court appearances. Most of the time they have committed suicide though. It is very strange how that keeps happening.

You didn't asked me, but wishing Happy Holidays near (a few days before) Christmas (on 2018.12.21) is meaningful enough for me.
I am not a staff member of Steemit or anything similar, but the payout is declined on this blog post. And as I see, the payout is declined under every post of @steemitblog.
So what are they taking here? Why are you talking about "exit"?

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย (edited)

You have no clue, do you? @steemitblog is one of many unnumbered accounts STINC owns. They flood the market with their ninja mined stake for the past few years.

Yeah, 70% of them got laid off. Happy Christmas from like 3 people who still work there.

I bet the dollars from the millions of steem they sell every month for the past two years ( without having anything tangible to show for) on the exchanges are not "declined" though.

I think this is a very positive greeting!!!
Nothing wrong with it and a whole bunch right with it, in my opinion!!!

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย 

right on @thecryptodrive ,i think they should pin as long as its not "daily" updates. I see a lot of complaining but i don't see a lot of onboarding major accounts by people who claim to have the marketing skills.
But well, people complain on a downvote on stackoverflow and spend 30 minutes explaining how to pose a question instead of using their supergeekbrain to answer it in 5 seconds.
As do the utopian "rules" on how-to-tutorial
humans ...
they can't be helped
steemit could have very well thrown in the towel by now, scrapped the money and left everyone to dry, filed for bankrupcy and get zero liability on anything.

But they don't , so i do agree, doubleplus points for not caving in and swimming upstream in the middle of a shitstorm on planet Crypton.

I betcha fiver if the price were to rise to $10 again people would still find something to complain about.

i'd say just keep going and whoever doesn't like it : there's always fakebook, you get an unlimited number of likes per day so people just post to watch their own feeds mostly imo.
And more : other than steem, flixxo and (if they come through) BAT there's none where you can step-in for free. I don't know of any fora like this running off of eos or tron or vitalsky-coin , ... maybe they exist but i'm sure the ETH won't come for free daily like it does here.

but it doesnt ??!?
orley so what do you call 10 100% votes a day ? those are vests in steem you give away and get for free, dearies.
I'm in to the very end but i hope this is just a bump and the phoenix rises stronger.

... i usually don't even react to all that crud because i dont know what people who are ranting actually accomplish for the chain themselves but in this case

well i didnt either, i just wanted to say i still believe and i agree with what you say here.

Steem is a decentralized blockchain and no one should have the authority to pin posts and have any kind of advantage.

steemit.com however is a centralized interface, and they can do whatever suite them, and i for one kinda neutral about this, i don't like it neither dislike it, but if you don't like it, you can use another interface.

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย (edited)

...or we can complain about them making user-hostile product decisions. โ€œYou can use something elseโ€ does not make one immune from critical feedback.

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย 

its their company ... steemit is not the blockchain , you are posting and reading on the application maintained by steemit.inc , they have every right in the world to pin whatever they like on top or bottom . If i were to complain about anything its why they're not lobbying for ad-money but i can think of a reason b/c i have the same problem : independence, they dont wanna leash themselves to having to explain yearly to the board.

No one's stopping anyone from writing their own program to run off of steemchain. #Busy did it , #musing did it , #steemstem did it ... anyone who wants can write their own pin-free application but as the americans say
"those who can, DO ... etc..."

I love how most of the flags come from leechers of the platform like high level users with barely more than 500 sp or users heavily relying on bid bots to get votes. Protip:It's Christmas guys, go suck some more whale dick and maybe you will get some more generous votes.

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย

Really rich, coming from the guy who upvotes his own comments. I flagged because your little rant doesn't contribute anything. Sure, you can have an opinion about Steemit pinning this message, but you don't have to be a dick about it. Merry Christmas to you too.

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย (edited)

Flag removed since you are not of the leechers I mentioned. My apologies. But still, yes I can.

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย (edited)

Same here, but because it's Christmas :P

Edit: And because your self-vote percentage actually isn't bad, so I don't mind that you upvote some of your comments.

At Christmas time do they have eggnog flavored bukkake? Also any advice on getting rid of stretch marks on my cheeks from the whale dicks? Maybe coco butter? It worked on my wife's stretch marks after having the baby.

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย 

Have you tried to use other dapps instead of Steemit.com? On @partiko, @esteem-app Surfer, @steempeak etc. you wont see non-sense like this pinned.

IMO it's better than complaining about something you dont want to see anyway. It's not like Steemit.com has the best User Experience too.

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย 

It's unclear why this shitpost-by-definition needed to be pinned and all users notified about it. Spam shouldn't be encouraged.

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย 

Exactly

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย 

Oh Ebenezer, behave!

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย 

Heheh, merry Christmas!!

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย 

You are using their front-end.

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย 

yeah you are right. Which I guess makes me a customer. Last time I checked, customers do have the right to complain :)

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย 

Customer that never buys shit.

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย 

"Customer that never buys shit."
He (and all of us) are buying 100% of what they're offering for sale.
Claiming we don't have the right to complain is indefensible. The site is profiting off us, the content-creators. If we aren't happy, we'll take our investment (and content) elsewhere. The site should care if/when the content-creators aren't happy. Please stop trying to silence people's opinions just because you disagree.

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย 

"Customer that never buys shit."

Yes he has no stake in Steemit, none of us do.

He (and all of us) are buying 100% of what they're offering for sale.

Please elaborate.

The site is profiting off us, the content-creators.

How? There are no ads, no revenue being created off of the users using Steemit.com daily. Not only do you (and most of us) get the account created for free, you're also surfing the blockchain and hosting images for free. They aren't packaging your activity and selling it to the highest bidders like most other social media platforms do, cause it's there for free to grab on the blockchain.

Sure you can say "their stake would not be worth as much if the users weren't here" but that brings in a lot of other factors.

Again, I'm not one to try and silence when users of a site want to complain about things, but his tone sounded a lot more like an idiot acting out on being mad cause things weren't delivered in time and it may have effected the value of his investment.

Please stop trying to silence people's opinion of other people's "opinions" because you disagree with me disagreeing with theirs.

Using words such as "silencing" and "censorship" on a blockchain is equally as dumb.

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย 

Nobody claimed the users of Steemit are OWNERS of Steemit, with stake in the company. Silly strawman.
You're trying to discredit someone's opinion because you disagree with it. His opinion is valid, as are all user complaints here. If the site wants to know how to provide best for its users, it will listen to complaints. People aren't complaining because they hate the site and want to destroy it. They're complaining because they love the site, see its potential, and want things to improve.
You coming along trying to claim people have no right to complain about Steemit's problems is nasty. They have every right, and Steemit's ownership would be wise to ignore you, and hear the complaints.

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย 

Oh for sure, I think it may be too late to complain about this particular site, though. And if he used another one he wouldn't have to get annoyed by the pin.

But typing a comment like that and getting a big account to upvote your own comment is much more edgy. Look at all the controversy and attention he got, woo!

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย 

I guess we have no right to complain about Facebook? ;)

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย 

I'm just saying the front-end doesn't even take any beneficiaries so you're not really paying for anything.

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย 

True. But like many other 21st century products, the most important resource we invest in it is our time.

ย  ยท ย 6 years agoย 

Yeah but it's not like they are abusing your time in ways that other platforms do, such as feeding you ads constantly or selling your activity of the time you've spent.

Maybe we all should have a break from the online addiction and the Steem drama.
