I tried to read some comments to maybe change my initial perception on this post but nothing changed.
This post screams "Self-centeredness" and "Entitlement mentality".
So because the system had been favoring you in the past, it should remain the same way? Did you even bother to check out the reasons for the "experiment"?
Sure the experiment in itself is flawed but the results are there for everyone to see (positive and negative)
It doesn't have to degenerate into a war of Content Creators vs Commenters.
Who are the content creators and who are the commenters?
The whole idea is to encourage more interaction between members of the community. All along, my upvotes added nothing not because they were totally worthless but because the way Steemit is set up, when some people vote, it reduces the value of mine.
The MAJORITY of people were complaining about this and it had to be looked into.
Just because you got into the good books of some whales (and they are way below 100 in number) doesn't mean everything was going fine for the other tens of thousands of users out there.
If you think leaving is the best answer to this, so be it. You have all the right to make that choice.
