I’ve had very few actual debates and mostly just scammers respond.

I have people say they can’t afford electricity, that I’m a bad person, that I’m a scammer, that I’m selfish, that there is some giant conspiracy, that they don’t have time to make good posts, that they need hive to pay for their server maintenance and they don’t have time to make a proposal.

It just seems like a scam. What the hell is going on here?

HIVE is not free. We sacrifice capital appreciation in exchange for content with the HOPE, that people will write things they like, and cherish the HIVE they have earned.

That formula is broken. It’s not working as designed.

People don’t care about HIVE. They think HIVE is endless and abundant. That this is sustainable.

It’s not 🤷‍♂️

And I’m not making “rules” this not being sustainable is just math.

Most people here legitimately believe HIVE is a faucet and it will never end.

I don’t know who the hell told everyone that. It’s not true. It’s never been true.

This whole thing is like some mind virus / psychosis.

We sacrifice capital appreciation in exchange for content with the HOPE, that people will write things they like, and cherish the HIVE they have earned.

and not just that but that the content brings people from outside of hive to our front-ends, something close to no one even bothered to try ever since posh. That is quite literally one of the main ideas behind the author rewards pool.

instead we get autovote farming, vote selling through delegations (@eds-vote and many more potentially), authors earning rewards for no effort they'll have a super easy fun time dumping cause they got it for free, etc.

There is real value in HIVE. And a lot of good things have been built around here. There are a lot of solid projects. HIVE is worth cherishing in my opinion.

People don't have to do much at this point, they just have to actually CARE about the ecosystem. The problem is, caring about something is way fucking harder than not caring. Like they are polar opposites. They aren't even comparable.

The whole point of crypto "was" to get money out of tradfi and into a “more” democratized digital world where commercial banks and central banks don't just control us.

People on HIVE do the opposite. They live off HIVE and just sell it constantly for fiat.

They think fiat is worth more than HIVE. That is crazy. So crazy I just don’t know what to say.

yep they don't value it, a lot of it is due to this whole stigma around downvotes and some treating it like it's the end of the world and whoever does it is an awful evil person even if they have the best intentions around it. I don't know where that stems from but looking at the defenders on goodbye posts of accounts like freecompliments it's easy to see how easy it is to shun those trying to do good with downvotes while taking the easy route and protecting anyone who gets downvoted no matter the actual reasons and how they've been getting scammed for years by the very person they're siding with in that post.

It's time we normalize downvotes and while I may no fully agree with some of your delegatee's downvotes I welcome the initiative as long as it's done in good spirits.

I don’t agree with all of their downvotes either.

But that means it’s working. They are different people than me running the accounts. If you disagree with some of them, I think that means they are working correctly.

I have the master keys right now so I can turn anyone off if I want. But I don’t know who is controlling which account.

So even if someone wants me to change something, I would have to go in there and do it, I can’t ask the person to change what they think.

I kind of think that’s how it should be.

Cause if they know that I know who they are, they are more likely to vote based on what I do. I don’t want that.

If this works, what we should end up seeing is antiabuse and opinion-voter vote against me on some things…. 🤣

It's a fresh idea so I can't hate on it, just important to keep an eye I guess so it doesn't become personal/malicious when you don't know who's behind it and if they may be targeting some people based on previous history of their real accounts etc

100%. It's not fool proof. Nothing is perfect and it does have pros and cons.

I’ve been keeping an eye on them and will continue to do so. It’s a privilege to run one of those accounts in mind. It’s a lot of responsibility but can make a big difference if they really do care about HIVE.
