If someone of the tagged ones read this, will be a nice surprice but i bet none of you will.
I tried to hack the system. When someone told me about Steemit I was excited, a place where I can post good content and get paid with some bucks for something I love? Wow, that´s was a dream. In fact, it is a dream.
But dreams tend to stay as dreams and hardly become reality. Steemit was another broken dream for me. I lost my optimism; reality has hit me in the face and laugh at me.
That´s why I´m powering down. I know you don´t care, why should you? I´m just plankton from a communist country trying to survive, I´m part of a plague that came here just to rape the reward pool and extract everything we can. I don´t deny it, that´s a big truth.
But let me tell you a thing if you didn’t notice, not all Venezuelans are plague. I´m not just a poor Venezuelan, I´m a good writer and an honest dude (or that´s what I believe). I tried for 9 months to make the best content I can just to entertain and make people think. I made my part, but Steemit didn´t make his.
Nine months telling people stories, making good jokes and trying to educate people in vain. Hard work (yeah this is work, I do this because I like it but mostly to get some money) made for almost nothing, hundreds, maybe thousands of hours just for a few bucks. Wasted time.
Steemit will die, that´s for sure and it will die because people like me will leave the platform. Why? You should know why, but I case you don´t know I will tell you. There is no reward for quality content. Nine months for just 80 SP. Why should I stay?
If I stay for another year, how much SP will I have? 160? 200? 500? Does that worth my time and effort?
Will I ever became a dolphin? No. If I stay I will always be plankton, an underground writer trying to get whales and dolphin´s attention with good content. But that´s useless.
That´s why I´m powering down, I accept the fact that´s almost impossible to grow up in this platform unless you kiss a lot of asses. Sorry but no, I still have dignity and I´m not going to use my country disgrace to ask for some upvotes, I´m not going to scam whales telling them that I’m going to give shoes to poor people. I´m not going to make a post telling that I´m dying of cancer or hemorroids. I don’t want your pity.
I´m not the nice dude telling everyone what they want to hear. I´m tired of looking how bad content made by opportunist, asskissers or scammers get to the top Spanish trending. So I will power down.
And Steem debacle it´s not my fault. It´s yours. I made my part, but you din´t. In general, you din´t reward good content, so good content will disappear. People like me will go, leaving whales and dolphins asking what´s the less crappy post to upvote. You will upvote crap everytime, everyday, until steem price will be less than zero.
I was naive when I dream about became a dolphin, I´m sure you know by now that Steem price will collapse even more and the dreams of all will be gone. There is no future if you don’t change, and you will not.
So, I lost my hope and time, but you will lose your time and money. So keep ignoring good content creators, I no longer care about the platform, I will power down and eventually leave this shithole full of liers and beggars. I have dignity and that´s why I will never success here.
Thanks to all of you that try his best to reward good content and are really trying to save this sinking ship, but imho you should leave before we all drown.
