Can't believe I have to hijack my own top comment to address this, but here we are.
A certain well-known Steemit user flagged my posts with a few of his accounts. Instead of communicating in the comments section or reaching out directly, he chose to take money out of my pocket.
I'll make it simple for you people: I am creating this program to make money.
Yes, it has the peripheral benefits of 1) improving the content on this site, 2) distributing the reward pool more evenly, and 3) paying users a respectable amount of money for their contribution.
But I designed it like this to gain popular support AND to provide a longterm solution to problems that are not going to be solved by technical changes any time soon, if ever.
I'm doing this for money just like the rest of you.
I'm just smart enough to know that if I figure out a way to make money that also helps you make money, then you'll help me put it into action.
If this program is not profitable, then there will be no program.
Do you want it to happen? Great. Then you need to communicate that to .
My stance is clear. I've laid it out in two long posts that explain exactly what I'm going to do, how I'm going to do it and the motivations behind everything. If you agree with me, then it's time for you to step up and make your voice heard.
If you don't speak up for yourselves and these posts keep getting flagged, then there will be no program. You will all keep the system the way it is. Nobody will read your posts. You won't make any money and you'll all just stay as frustrated as you are now.
Meanwhile, witnesses and whales will keep making lots of money and the gap between you will widen every day. Initiatives like mine are the only chance you have of making reliable money on here by creating content.
Maybe you want to negotiate, ? Make an agreement? Give some input on the program? Suggestions? Talk like two adults instead of just trying to impose your will? Up to you. You know how to find me. I'm all ears.
