Why should I? There is no way for me to know if someone clicked a link on my website and then saw the exact same meme on Steemit. There is also no way for me to POLICE the public to ensure every one of them also did the same. Why is it bothering you so much that someone might make me 1/4 cent on Adsense and another 1/4 cent on Steemit?

Let's take this one step further. I have seen several other similar (not exact) posts on Steemit on basically the exact same topic (the original topic of this post). Each has their own little twist of course, but they are basically all taking about the same things, trying to come to a consensus on their view of how things should be done. Have you told them to decline rewards? If I have to police all of my posts to such extreme, shouldn't they have to police their own also? I don't think they should and I don't think I should have to either. All information is not static. It is not like taking an injection of medication, use once and the needle is useless. A body of information is added to, subtracted from, grown, expanded, tossed and kicked around with each person who sees it, taking what works for them from it. Why should you or anyone else tell me my memes have a limited life span? Even if every single person on Steemit sees my meme the first time it is posted, (that will never happen) does that render it incapable to brightening someones day a second time, weeks, months or even years later?

Plus, would you please explain to me what your position in Steemit is, what your title is? What authority do you have to tell me what I can and cannot post?

Unless the powers that be in Steemit have given you authority, you have access to the exact same mechanisms I have to control what is seen on Steemit. You can upvote, downvote, mute, or unfollow. But without additional authority from Steemit, I do give you power over me beyond what every person on Steemit has over every other person. I am doing NOTHING wrong. I am not breaking any rules on Steemit. I am not breaking any laws. I have never receive any type of notice from Steemit that I am doing something wrong.

In fact, the only people who have ever complained in any way are a couple of whales who have hundreds of times the steempower I do. Hmmm...
