RE: ~ How many more surprises will Mercury give us? ~

in #space6 years ago

I could still have more, there are a few more vote buying services.
My ultimate goal is of course to have a good community of friends and followers and not have to use those services. But unfortunately that has not happened yet.
So for the moment I will continue to use the services that I consider appropriate to publicize my work.

Sort:  

Yeah, I disagree fundamentally with their use but understand why people do it.

Do you think it is a good thing that authors may use their stake to place their posts / comments above otherss irrespective of quality?

Of course not.
The quality of the post is what gives value to our beloved community. That in my opinion is not debatable. And it is precisely what we all have to fight against. But that doesn’t mean that the creators of quality content, we can not advertise our work.

I reiterate that this is my personal opinion, and as I have written before, not something that I consider to continue doing indefinitely. If not as a powerful tool to give visibility to my blog.
Of course I would prefer to be investing my SBD in Steem instead of having to use it for this purpose.
