I joined a couple of months back and have noticed the decline in quality conversation.
It is a great idea, but the structure is set up to promote jealousy, co-ordinated up voting, plagiarism and posting anything at a whim.
If it stays like it is it will die slowly.
It probably is a prefect example of capitalism - a system that polarises the rich and poor - people who play the system against people who want to play fair.
The world's not fair, I hear you cry. The systems we agree to abide by are decided by you. If you can't beat them join them, seems to be the motto.
Damn, we are so weak. Stand up for what you really believe in, speak your mind, fuck up-votes and likes to stroke your ego.
If anyone thinks they should be congratulated for making money by playing the system is not contributing to society or that community. They are products of the current system. It is not their fault. We are pretty feeble, greedy and jealous. I never thought this platform would demonstrate that so perfectly. It promotes the selfish side to us all.
I have even heard one youtuber trying to say to follow them on here because he manage his comments better on here, bullshit - There is just too much bullshit already. It seems this platform is actually exposing the bullshit. Maybe thats a good thing.
It's a shame a good idea has to die to expose it.
Don't up vote this post, because I probably won't up vote yours :)
