Was it carlgnash selling this hf20 as some sort of middle class boost?

Allow me to call bullshit! It is what it is, and it aint pretty, not for new people or even established people with under or just over 500 sp. Let us take a look at a fairly new member via steemd shall we? Now imagine you join a "SUPPOSED" social media website where you can earn money for writing, and then find you can comment "TWICE" before having to recharge your RC or resource credits to make another comment, but you have to wait 6-12 hours to comment once due to making a post. gone are conversations end of subject, well done stinc, all hail stinc ups.

Lets take a look at Hive account@merbub who made a post just in introduce yourself, that took his/her rc down to 7% and in the red zone = https://steemd.com/@merbub, now what did merbub do to deserve this? made 1 post.

Now lets see how many times merbub can reply to anyone that says welcome to silenceville shall we?

Enough credits for approximately:
0 comments (2 after recharge)
0 votes (10 after recharge)
0 transfers/powerups (11 after recharge)

A welcoming platform?

Can you imagine joining this shit show right now? and not being able to reply to anyone that says hello, and when you can, after a lot of clicking due to having no idea why you can not comment, then it suddenly after 6 hours letting you, the person replies to you again, then repeat the 6 hour wait over and over again. You can forget getting new people in here now, even trying to drag people from youtube will require a gun to their head, or a hefty purchase of steem from them before they come, though with the price of steem and sbd being almost down the toilet I say good luck with that.

I have nothing left to say, honestly I can not be bothered, as now I can only post and comment a few times a day anyway, you fucked up stinc, and all the people that went along with this, all you have done is drill a bigger hole in a stinking ship, did I say stinking I meant sinking, Titanic springs to mind, enjoy the price, while it sinks with the site, bye for now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
