“I had fired 9-millimeters before and didn't like them. they weren't as accurate as my .38 special. they weren't as safe, and they could jam. i had never been one to substitute quantity for quality, and there was no substitution for being informed and practiced” ― Patricia Cornwell
Weeding out the comments RUBBISH!
......
The other day I wrote a post about how I was struggling to continuously respond to every single person who comments on my blog posts and that I had made the decision to cut out the crap and focus solely on the ones which clearly come from a genuine place....
I also made remark of how implementing that would most likely cut my time spent commenting by about 50%. Well, I was wrong!!! It cut down the time I spend commenting by about 90% lol!
Yeah.... true (sad) story!!
As I have also mentioned previously, I was always adamant that I would respond to each and every person, no matter what... but to be honest, I am quite liking this new "entertain no crap" approach.... because it really DOES free up so much time and voting power that was LITERALLY being SQUANDERED!
So yes, it is a definite NO to spam comments from me.... and I used this GIF the other day too, but it was really such an accurate visual depiction of how I feel about this, that I am going to use it again lol....
BOOOOM!
yip, that definitely sums it up!
But seriously...
(no, I am not about to break into a Phil Collins track lol)
WHAT THE BLOODY HELL ARE SOME OF THESE PEOPLE THINKING?!
Actually... are they even thinking at all?
Me thinks not!
I mean, I will do a podcast and get comments like...
this song is beautiful
or
your photography makes me happy
or even better
your blog makes me happy
or yeeeah....
nice song, beautiful voice
oh come on!!!!!
WHAT THE ACTUAL FNCK! LOL!!!
Do these people think that I don't actually KNOW what I have published
and that I would be all like.... yes, my voice is an amazing photo?!
PLEASE WAKE UP!!!!!!!
Aint nobody got time for that shite!
What could YOU (yes, you know who you are)
POSSIBLY think you were going to gain from making such comments that do nothing other than expose that A) you have absolutely NO idea what you are commenting on and B) that you will pretty much do ANYTHING for the possibility of attention in the form of SBD.
You do realise that some of us have BRAINS right?!
And the chances of getting an upvote for such bolony... is well....
I am of the opinion that there is simply
WAY too much...
floating around the Steemit platform
(pun intended LOL!!!)
Not only from the comments aspect of things,
but in post creation too.
So, WHY for the love of green apples are we not doing more to get RID of this shite!!!!! It is spoiling the experience for EVERYONE! It is watering down all the amazing content that is out there!
Have you visited the NEW feed lately....
Well, WOW! It is a ratio of like 20 : 1
20 posts of utter CRAP and one of QUALITY
and sadly....
that "one"... gets completely LOST because it is in the minority!
IT IS JUST WRONG!!!!!
Why are we not standing together as a community
and downvoting this rubbish so that we can eventually get rid of it!
As citizens in the real world...
(you know... that one with actual people and trees and stuff)
if something does not suit us, we speak out...
We make an effort for change,
rally together and create the change we wish to see,
or at the very least, make the effort.
This is not happening on Steemit.... WHY?!!!!!!
aaaah... because people are cowards!
Yeah, you read that right! - and you were thinking it!
"The only difference is I got the balls to say it in front of y'all and I don't gotta be false or sugar coat it at all
I just get on the mic and spit it, and whether you like to admit it."
Thanks Eminem ;)
I have digressed.... lol
but you get my point....
hopefully!
IN CONCLUSION
Let's WEED OUT THE CRAP shall we!
I'll vote for that!
😎
Until next time...
Much Love from Cape Town, South Africa xxx
