Don't Be An Ass

Be Good - Do Good

As I sit here in a parking lot, in Truro, only a scant few miles from Provincetown, a thought comes to mind. Provincetown is one of the more open and welcoming communities I have come across. Artists, and Fishermen, it is a place that values the hard work of others.

Recently, there has been a plummet of Steem and SBD prices. Oddly, there's also been a crazy uptick in people panicking, whether it is bailing on the platform, or taking time off, for some reason...

Also at the same time, with prices dropped, the payoffs are lower.
So, any post, and any payout is valued.
People work hard for their posts.
People spend time and energy on their creative photography, and value it.

Those that would steal an image, copy it, or plagiarize it,
are doing as much, if not more damage, during these lean times.
And stealing an image, without attribution, is wrong,
no matter whether you are a brand new newbie,
or a whale from the first week of the platform.

Steemit can use strong leaders, posting Quality content. In today's wild and hairy times, Steemit's longtime users, and whales, need to really be showing how to be a Good Steemian!
Flag Wars, Downvoting with spite, and unethical behavior hurts us ALL!
Because, the more people are turned off, the more people leave the paltform.
And if this becomes a deserted island,
then no one makes money!
No One Succeeds!

Good Steemians, Arise

Congratz, your post has been resteemed and, who knows, will maybe appear in the next edition of the #dailyspotlights (Click on my face if you want to know more about me...)Check the rules of the Daily Spotlights if you want to nominate someone!Pixresteemer is also listed as promoter on The Steemians Directory

Greetings, what you raise is worrisome. We all have to join forces to make steemit a great place. Congratulations. Excuse me, I use translate.

Do not worry, your words are fine.
It's not the words, your meaning is clear and good for us all!

This! The negativity does nothing for the success of Steem as a whole. On the flip side, every positive encounter builds it up. Cheers to the ones who are here for the long haul, and doing good as they go.

RIGHT?

be good.
do good.

Doesn't seem complex.
AND if each starts to do better, all of us do better.

100% spot on fam. People get distressed and do some drastically stupid things sometimes. I like seeing encouraging posts like these, makes me think that STEEM itself has a very bright future in the right hands. In good hands. Do you have hands? LOL Kudos amigo.

Hands?
I can't tell... there's ... wait...
OK, [Bombay Sapphire and lemonade put down] Yes,,, I see ... yep... two hands... no waiting!

Thanks for this encouragement! You're right. (don't get used to me saying that!!! hehehe) But it is so tempting to fall into bad behavior when finances are tight. I guess it's a lot like a married couple fighting when they're living paycheck to paycheck. We need to be good to each other in good times and bad. times of feast, and times of famine LOL.

hard to do. emotions do run high. but keep encouraging us, Azure Dorsals. LOLOLOL (i seriously just BUSTED up laughing at the memory of that!!!!!! oh man, 20 minutes later... sheesh)

did you say something about sims? or was that me.
