Exactly 8 days ago I've started adding the 'palnet' tag to my blog posts. Unfortunately, I don't have that much friends who hodls a significant amount of PAL stakes so I only got around 2 PAL for it (better than nothing I guess XD).
To make things more sad, I have to give up half of that 2 PAL tokens to the curators of that post T_T. Don't get me wrong though, I am not complaining and I understand why there is a need to return back something to curators but it's just that after being on the Steem platform for a year and a half now, I realized that almost 90% (or maybe even higher?) of people here no longer curate blog posts from strangers and will only upvote stuffs from their circle of friends who also reciprocates them with a sweet upvote. So... XD
This is also the reason why I am afraid of the coming HF21 where they propose to change the author reward from 75/25 to 50/50%. I really suspect that if ever they implement that one, a lot of suckering up and ass-kissing towards big stake hodlers will happen and not the intended "exceptional quality blog posts gets a big vote" (not that it isn't happening now but I suspect it might get worse).
Anyway, I might have went off topic and ranted too much so back to my sweet 1 PAL token. XD
I've decided to power-up that sweet 1 PAL hoping that it brings me good luck on the palnet.io platform. XD
