So using bots to downvote and censor posts/free speech isnt gaming the system?
At least Haejin adds value and gives tips for free.
I dont know what you do...

You don't know, because you're ignorant. That's not my fault.
I'm using the system EXACTLY as it was designed, that's what you morons don't understand. Eventually you will get it, unfortunately for you it'll likely be too late.
and you are arrogant beyond belief.
explain it to us "morons" then
explain the wonders of the ecosystem we are missing when this whole process seems to distract from content creation, user engagement and platform growth.
I for one came here because of content @haejin created
Only reason I came back to steemit was because of haejin. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF this Bernie Sanders is an ass.
I believe he's discussing linear rewards. And the change from using popularity of a post to determine post rewards and simply switching to SP alone basically determines post rewards. This shift which happened in HF19 allowed bidbots which had a difficult time being successful before because they didnt' always vote on popular post suddenly became viable. Thus the system very much allows a "use it however you want" mentality.
Ok, thanks for trying to explain
I am not sure what that means though :)
I just see a broken platform.
User creates content
user creates audience
Audience votes for good content
Trolls attack author
Author tears hair out
Not sure that how the use case was supposed to pan out
"Broken network," well observed -
but, only if you expect steemit to be a normal social network. Steemit designers rely on the payment system to push the platform as such, they haven't the remotest care about how a social network should be working - this isn't one.
They coded a rudimentary notification system on a blockchain, to promote their STEEM coins.
That's it, try to understand this.
So if a guy like berniesanders says he is using the system the way it was meant to be used, then I can't argue that, it would be illogical - also it's obviously a waste of time.
I cannot abide time waste, life is short and then we die.
@berniesanders, why t f don't you make haejin an offer he can't refuse, I mean do you want to troll him off the platform or just make him sort of stay in his niche ? I personally don't care, I'm starting to get pretty good at TA myself these days and I havent the tiniest interest in steemit
quite agree.
personally think the whole thing stinks. Sold my SBD and hope the whole network fails. Don't want to be a part of this sh*t
I came here because of haejin, expecting it to be some sort of an 'in' place - but it was... sterile. I'm a social media user since five years and pretty used to all sorts, but this was skeleton... however the coin options were very enlightening. I also got to know the Bitshares system, and I immediately started wondering what relationship might exist between the creators and haejin, I'm from the ad business and given to preemptively shrewd thinking.
The bernie business is counterintuitive to all that... so in a way, it relaxes me ;)
But steem, of hich many people say its "one of the coins with real substance behind it" - well if this was a sensible network startup like minds, then i would agree. But it seems they're not wasting money paying employees to actually make it work, so... it's a shell, and that makes steem a hollow product.
I held some steem last month but I'd rather deal in major coins at the exchanges for the time being ;)
so meaning if i may get you right @haejin is not wrong or what?
so meaning what you are saying @haejin did no wrong right?
So, 7500+ people are morons ! ohh man
How can you talk like this !?
It is easy to understand such a shitty site as steemit. Maybe you think you are a big shot in life because you are effective on this stupid site. Congratulations for being the biggest asshole at this shitdump.
"So using bots to downvote and censor posts/free speech isnt gaming the system?"
no that's basic capitalism. Capitalism can't function without that ;)
Really?
Dont he get paid from youtube videos?
Dont he get paid on steemit rewards?
Dont he sell "private sessions"?
Doesnt seem free to me...
besides the discounted coaching sessions, no one is forced to pay anything... his tips are free... his coaching isn't his tips...
he gets paid just like you got paid for your comment... nothing came out of my pocket in order to upvote you... yet you got paid... magic right? @phgnomo
Not magic, but still not free. If somebody recieve money from anything that is not donating is not free.
In steemit case, all the community is paying for whatever you, me, haejin, bernie writes.
Doesnt have to be you the person paying.
It may be free for anyone who reads, but someone is always paying. So, still not doing for free.
@phgnomo Oh wow really?
Well I haven't spend a single penny on him and still see the tips.
It seems free to me?
Answer me this simples question: does he recieve money for the service he provides from Any source that is not in form of donations?
