To Downvoters and my ex-followers, I&#x27;d like to continue my blog

joshman 5 years ago

There's not much for me to add to what the other commenters have said here. Many of us have been hoping that people in your situation will draw from the reward pool less, and concentrate on more on raising the value of steem. You and some others have so much latent ability to do so through your stake, it's more sad to me than anything else when this potential isn't achieved. I believe that one of the primary methods we can all accomplish this is through supporting new and undervalued blogs, not by directing the majority of support to established orcas and whales. It's true there is value to individuals such as yourself holding large amounts of steem, but there is so much more value in getting more of the reward pool to smaller blogs to energize them to keep posting more content, and even possibly purchase more steem on the open market. Any number of the commenters here could help you both maximize your curation rewards, as well as your impact. I've always had the impression that you want to be a positive force, but it's easy for all of us to get locked into old patterns, and that's understandable. I would only suggest before making any hasty decisions, that you experiment with adjusting those patterns and see what happens. You might actually be pleasantly surprised.

No votes are going to broncnutz and cryptopassion anymore so you can cross this out. I like jrcornel posts so yes I upvote. Then you have my self votes which I think is still okay isn’t it ?
So you have 25% left on 3 people and the rest on other people. 75% of my upvotes away not through autovotes (taking away my own posts) is still not enough?

75% of your upvotes go to 15 people ! What about your split ? And you get Steem from being a witness so you don’t need to upvote yourself.

Do you think it is fair to give 75% of your upvotes and witness rewards to 15 people most of which are your friends or projects such as @curangel ?

I don't think anyone wants to stop you from writing. Your posts and pictures are really nice, and the insights into Buddhism and your culture are very interesting! I don't know anyone who disagrees with that.

It's only the vote trading that triggered the downvotes. The rewards on steem are split into content and curation rewards for a reason. Your stake gives you the option to earn with curation, while the other half is intended to help other creators grow. If you are really serious with stopping the reciprocal voting and starting to support smaller authors I will take care that the downvotes I can control stop, right now.

Voting randomly is clearly not optimal, so if you find the time it would be awesome if you spent some time to look around for what you would consider good content and support those creators. There is a lot of spam, plagiarism and other unpleasant stuff, which makes that really time consuming. That's why I created curangel and delegate most of my stake to it. You probably have mostly seen it as leading the downvote trail that hit you, but the original intention behind it was a lot more about the curation (hence the name). We have a group of about 20 people looking around all day to find quality content which deserves support, and 80% of the rewards go to the delegators. The other 20% are for the curators, which are all small accounts themselves who are here for the content. There's no share for me or the other admins - it's all about supporting the creators and curators of content which may help steem to grow its userbase again.
Delegators have the option to submit posts which received bought or traded votes for downvotes, because that needs to stop for steem to be able to grow outside of the circles of friends of investors.

Of course you can power down and do with your steem whatever you like. I just want to show you that there's alternatives. As delegators to curangel, we still receive about 8% APR, and don't have to worry about what we vote - maybe that's an option for you too.

Whatever you decide to do with your stake, and that of your other accounts, please keep posting! Don't give up on this platform just because the long-established practice of selling and trading votes is finally not accepted by everyone any more. If we all work together to help newcomers grab a foot, all our values will rise a lot more than what you could have earned with rewards in the past while the price kept dropping.

If you do a little more research, you will see that those "15 people" are the ones Haejin/Ranchorelaxo constantly downvotes with both accounts at 100% regardless of the content. Most of those votes are to counter this childish behaviour.

I'm number 9 on that list. I think you can see why:
Screen Shot 2019-11-05 at 23.01.59.png

This has been going on for more than 2 months now and it's the same for most of the people on that list. Before then I never got a single vote from curangel, and I have no idea who is running the project, so your assertion that we're "friends" isn't true.

I suggest everyone calms down and think before they type these rants

I was pleasantly surprised by changes made to steem once i got back after a while. The truth is there will always be two sides of interest but we as community nees to find a sweet spot. I as a content creator stopped creating content not for the rewards being too small, but for disproportion of rewards on bad content and content you could clearly see people put their hart, time and talent in. I allways liked content that @slowwalker posted and never gave it a second thought about his voting circle since i would receive a meaningfull upvote from him now and then.

As for the content discovery it is still quite hard and time consuming to find quality content since trending is more of a randon thing, search by topic or keywords still does not work you can search tags... Let's say i wanted to find skin retouching tutorials... bad luck. With the introduction of tribes i believe the majority started using tribe tags for obvious reasons.

I believe we will not see efficient curation until we have a proper content discovery mechanics.

Please keep posting and stay on Steem. I enjoy looking at your daily posts. There aren't many English blogs sharing great photos of Korea.

I don't think you should vote for random. You should vote for blogs and posts you like or follow voting trails of people you trust and respect. It is your right and opinion.

If you don't want to get downvoted, it is important to discuss details with the people downvoting you, since it is their right and opinion, too. I guess they will stop if you have an understanding together.

I don't think you should power down. Try changing your voting style to see if you are happy with the results. The price of Steem is too low right now.

I think if everyone has a discussion, the community and atmosphere will improve. When SMTs arrive we will all be ready.

Please continue your blogs @slowwalker, and even self-vote as you don't post that often. It's just the vote-trading to a large degree that many disagree with and it needs to go down. If we can get the average rewards even of the most popular people on Steem to some regular levels that look reasonable to outsiders Steem will still be one of the best platforms around compared to the peanuts people make on Medium and that other one I keep forgetting the name of where you can tip posts in different crypto.

Anyway, I love to hear that you will focus on curating smaller users, thank you for that! Distribution is important, there are coins like Stellar where they give away most of their supply and they still do well in marketcap. Steem is a different beast but we can only win if we stop focusing on our STEEM ROI but instead figure out how to increase the STEEM value.

Yes, 11% of my votes go to curators of OCD, especially since dumbasses like you have been retaliating on them due to OCDB downvotes and they are now barely making any rewards without my vote considering they are over 15 curators sharing the post rewards.

How much money the same people give you is exactly what you're supposedly fighting. How many different profiles you have, how many users are held in the same voting circle. Stop writing posts and have your lobby group support new users.
Now you are doing Power Down, surely it is a new tactic for you to be voted the same group of people as a successful blogger. As much money goes to you through various projects and votes, you honestly need to support the small users because all this is just your game.

I will not vote you anymore which is a shame and cancerous to Steemit in my opinion. I don’t blame you if you want t power done em and then dump coins when the prices rises a little, at least you will have them liquid to do so. This place has be come to centralized and a few dictators now decide who is god and who is bad because they have the power of massive delegates. It’s a shame because I feel people like me and you along with many others help keep this place alive with good content, not some bullshit activfit post or battle scores from drug wars or Steem monsters.....real content that helps bring users. Don’t vote for me anymore either because the fanboys will downvote both of us no matter what we do. I deleted every person on my voting bot, quit voting myself once a day and stay still hit my posts with downvotes. It’s a small group of people not control this platform.

Perhaps your idea of "good content" differs from others. As I have to constantly remind people, despite have some amount of SP, you are NOT ENTITLED to rewards from the reward pool. The only time you are "entitled" to rewards are AFTER the 7 day voting period. AFTER the upvotes. AFTER the downvotes.

You also have a vile attitude and personality. You probably encourage people to dislike you and downvote you. That is also their right with their SP, is it not?

I encourage you to not power down your stake. Instead of powering down would you consider delegating to other communities? I am sorry to bring this to your comments and it sounds like I am selling something. Many communities could benefit, including the community that my wife and I have founded here on Steem. It is called Innerblocks @innerblocks. It is focused on first hand experiential content, and people owning their experience and building themselves.

Steemit is bottoming on alexa ranking, more people like this are being discouraged. More people are reading this and specially our members from Asia.
If they confirm this as censorship on bloggers freedom I will think on what side of steemit history you want to be.
This trailing downvotes together against one account like @slowwalker account in my opinion is massive abuse and spamming to his account. His account was attacked for weeks and months as bullying abuse of downvote.
I hope @slowwalker continues to be part of steemit community if downvote censorship lobby allows .

@slowwalker. This is really good to hear that you are considering new ways. You are trying to break from your circle that you created over multiple years. Admission is hard; rest is easy.

I enjoyed your writing over the years but never liked the vote trading. So even though I liked your content, I nominated you for downvoting. I am glad I don’t have to do that any more. Hopefully.

I have substantial stake in steem now. And I plan on increasing my stake substantially if people in the platform are creative and understand decentralized governance. Because without governance we have no hope. If people like you change your ways, vote for small users, follow a curation trail, not only you will help the steem blockchain but will earn a good 7-8% passive income for your stake. If anyone wants more that’s greed.

Now if some of your followers like @dobartim @broncnutz @oldstone (which is you) @vlemon @kingscrown etc follow your footsteps; we will move collectively in the right direction. I can easily bring in more investment (real ones; not the puny things which we call stakes here) which will help with creativity and innovation.

Let’s hope 2020 will be good to us!! Cheers!!

Apologies for upvote but this @flysky is a pest ;)

Trailing downvote lobby nullifies @slowwalker posts and you taking credit and you are proud that another whale post is destroyed??

Does steemit community allows him to continue blogging?

Is it simply bad because a "whale post is destroyed" or "just a post"? Are you considering content of a whale more important versus content of someone that is writing an in-depth post by heart investing e.g. 3 hours and to land at 30 cents - someone that might be new here and not a whale? Someone that might add much more quality but simply has not the connections to whales?

so is it more important to protect people that are whales vs onboarding new talents that create absolutely fantastic content? Tell me!

Do posts from whack.science like this has a value of $ 10 each? Many of these posts are supported instead of quality posts from new users and there is a psychological inconsistency.

We all want Steem to grow, the number of users to increase, but when downvotes are used by a group of people who vote for the same people or the same people vote for them, then the number of users cannot increase.
So the whole support system is unrealistic, the point is to create a new model and rules that will be a combination of business and social network.

Instead of increasing website traffic now, traffic is dropping. New users see empty posts, see that many quality posts have no reward, and then quit writing.

Steem production should be stopped instead of downvote. It is better to introduce a rule as a software solution that you can vote once a day for yourself or 10% in total, that you can give the same people 100% once a week, etc.

I wrote a lot of posts about it but I got downvotes, everyone repeats only downvotes as an ideal solution and we all sink with it. He gets some downvotes and then he get an offer to give them Steem Power, so that's a really appropriate proposal.

When small users are so protected when they are so important, why no one ever asks them what they suggest is good for all of us. We need to be consistent with our words, leaders always show with their personal example and I do not see honest leadership or real and good solutions in the team that presents itself for the main characters.

Ugly words and attacks will not do any good to anyone, so only we can together make this place an oasis for all users, bloggers, investors.

It is important for us to understand that no one wants to lose money, everyone wants it to grow, but it is not fair that the main players look for excuses by convincing others that someone is bad and the same people are doing much worse things.

My upvotes are automated to counter retaliation downvotes, and if those aren't enough I follow curangel (where the major part of my stake is delegated to - it would be everything if I wouldn't need to counter those). So it's up to those retaliating who I vote for. Its also not adding anything to the rewards of these posts.

You can like jrcornel posts without giving him more rewards than 10 other people combined.
I personally consider one self vote a day, 10%, as acceptable. If you change your voting pattern as significantly as you say, i will take care that you won't get any more curangel downvotes. 25-30% for yourself and your friends is the line I draw when figuring if I deny a downvote or not.

When you invite your child to be a part of Steemit, your wife, brother and family to invest money, then it is normal to support them. There is no logic in voting random for new users unless there are such rules that whales do not post, that voting is restricted - that you can vote the same person once a week, etc.

The very logic of the social network is disturbed because this is a combination of business and social network. But when someone propagates something new and does not do it themselves, or says that it is the only good option to give downvote then it is not good for any user.

We need to find the right and better solutions, everything else is a struggle for power and this is what is discussed here in the post.

There is no censorship, and you are not "prohibited from writing" whatsoever.

Hi @slowwalker

I started to follow you because you published an article about your mother and her paintings, this article is very heartwarming and I love it.This should have happened two or three years ago, I started following your post after that. And I especially enjoyed and learned a lot from your series on Buddhism.

I have read almost every article you have written, but since English is not my native language, it is difficult for me to make some comments. But I still think we're good friends, at least I think we are.

I set up automatic upvote to your posts, but I never expected a return, nor did I care about the gain or loss, just because I like it. Although sometimes I'm happy when you upvoted on my posts.

I hope you to stay here, continue to produce excellent work just like before. We can't please everyone, It doesn't matter.

Maybe one day I will be under pressure not to automatically upvote your post, but I hope we will always be friends.

When I can't vote for whom I like, When I can't vote for myself, when bloggers say "don't vote for me, so I don't get flags" that means there is no democracy but dictatorship which is against law. Why some bloggers like @whack.science vote for himself and don't flag Him? If selfvoting is prohibited than "flag him" also. If You flag him for selfvoting than I will believe You are righteous but if You don't than this is called VIOLENCE. Someone can get health problems because of Your constant pressure...

This what is happening on Steemit is called violence, threatening & is crime.

When You force somebody to do something what You want Him/Her to do ( and He/Her is not doing anything contrary to Steemit policy ) according to law is called violence & violence is against Human rights...

Hi there. I think it's great that steem allowed you to keep writing day after day for three years, congratulations on that one, not a lot of people can say that about themselves.

So, you will start powering down instead of staying powered up and voting for other people? After months and years of getting rewards (at what price point did you bought steem by the way?) you decide you no longer want to keep writing just because your rewards are going down?

You just said rewards are not important for you, but you decide to power down once you see your rewards go down? 🤔

Nobody is prohibiting you from writing on Steem...

Again, it's good to see that after a long time you have decided to vote on other people, that is really the new steem way! Sad that you are powering down but it's good news you are spreading your votes.

Unfortunately, on Steem, a post is more appreciated and gets more attention if it gets higher rewards/upvotes and there is a valid reason behind this thinking, most of the people have been mainly attracted towards Steem to get rich or to get handsome pay outs or if we think it not at the extreme but moderately then to earn an average income and it is still possible but that's another discussion.

My point is, other than above mentioned concept, Steem is a place where anyone can write whatever he/she wants within, IMO, ethical limitations and it could be a master piece even if it doesn't get higher rewards.

Heya @slowwalker - I was thinking a lot whether I should add a comment or not here - simply because it would maybe get me into flags from both sides (or better three sides) but anyway.

It would be a shame to lose you. Your topics are interesting, the rewards per post might be too high compared to other content creators but this is a community and obviously you create a fanbase of people you exchange help. All the others that downvote benefit from the same attitude.

While I am not a fan at all of the downvote regime towards anyone using a bid bot by @acidyo and also @pharesim I certainly appreciate the point they come from. Both try to do sth for the community, if I like this or not it might help but at least they have a stand now.

I do not need to love all their actions to still have respect towards them - personally I like both of them, also @anomadsoul.

What striked me a bit here was that you get support with spam comments by a certain group I had some discussion nearly two years ago which is the family of shit posters around @dobartim @aidasfg7 and @flysky. When I had some flag engagement with them some good folks warned me to not take it to the next level as these guys are not only spammers and shit poster but also dangerous. Hence I stopped.

Following the comments on that post really shocked me again - no one with a usuall mindset could even consider to take these guys srious no matter how much SP they have now, not asking how. So in a nutshell I like your approach to vote smaller people here but please keep your SP for that and stop voting shit.

First of all, we don't know, secondly, your comment has nothing to do with the nature of this post, it is clear that you have been indoctrinated by the same people who attack the slower and us. I do not understand who you are to judge whose post is good and which is not. It is clear to me that most people who give minuses speak German, but I do not want to believe that this has anything to do with national backgrounds.

Everyone has the right to talk what he thinks, to write what he wants, to bring his friends and to invest in Steem. I do not vote on a national basis, I honestly do not belong to any lobby group and I respect all those who write something.

If I liked your posts I would certainly vote for them, and I guess it's normal for me to support one post from my wife, my brother and my son? If you don't like my post then don't comment because your inappropriate comments have nothing to do with my posts or this post.

Hiya - so your circle of voting is wife, brother and son? Good to know - all understood, hence I still think anyone else here has the right to comment whatever they want and in terms of voting (I have not downvoted anything of you) anyone has to do what they feel fits to their mind - some do it to protect reward pool, some with other reasons.

I also appreciate slowwalker a lot!

What you mean? By whom?

it is clear that you have been indoctrinated by the same people who attack the slower and us. I do not understand who you are to judge whose post is good and which is not.

Well, isn't this a free zone without censorship, why you call me out as inappropriate? And you consider Germans or German speaking guys to be the downvoters - I certainly can tell Germans are not very top on that.

If you don't like my post then don't comment because your inappropriate comments have nothing to do with my posts or this post.

I am not god but everyone can judge what they like, agree? No matter which deals and cooperations they have with big boys and girls! I could become a whale here within a minute immediately - but I still have this naive mindset of the platform become a good community by itself - this requires great members, great Apps and on the platform side also good content (while I am not sure this is the deciding factor of the steem blockchain to become successful).

I do not understand who you are to judge whose post is good and which is not.

One thing we think is the way of newsteem movement.
If we force someone to stop writing blogs for the reward with mass downvote,
it is not different from the strongest censorship, in my guess.

It really is totally different from the strongest (form of) censorship. The strongest form of censorship is preventing someone from publishing anything. That is the strongest form of censorship in existence. Steem has nothing of the kind.

Disagreement on rewards has always been an officially sanctioned reason for downvoting. Stakeholders collectively decide how much any given post should be worth in rewards. The #newsteem movement that was given rise following the adoption of the Economic Improvement Proposal two months ago has made use of the free 2.5 full downvotes available to each account. In my opinion, the result has been a drastic improvement of content quality in Trending.

That said, I have seen cases retaliatory auto-downvoting that has totally wiped out the earnings of some Dolphin-sized upstanding bloggers on Steem. That is reprehensible. The community should step up and heal those accounts immediately. Your situation is completely different as your rewards are still in the tens of dollars per post.

You say your rewards are proportional to your stake. Your rewards are still pretty good even after the downvotes. Another way to earn content rewards in addition to author rewards is curation rewards. Your stake is so large that you have a good chance of earning good curation rewards under EIP that introduced the 50/50 split between authors and curators. Because you're a whale, you will be able to earn several dollars with the click of a button if you have liked a post you have just read.

Do go on posting about Korean history and Korean temples. There absolutely nothing wrong with your posts per se. Because they have been exceptionally well rewarded, they have regularly appeared in Trending for years. That has drawn some downvoting simply because people have differing opinions on how rewards should be distributed, large ones in particular. In spite of the downvotes, your author rewards have still been very good. By curating content you find valuable, you have an excellent opportunity to do your part in making the whole platform more valuable while making pretty good money doing so. Your stand a lot to gain from that since your stake is still very large. Good luck!

That is nicely said. Censorship in fact. The reason why it is , is the fact that downvote lobby specifically go after people of their choice. You can see for example how they destroyed oldest bloggers post of @slowwalker if you check his post it was abused by negative mentions and massive sp downvotes months and months by same group of lobby group.

I don't know what happened here because I am not very active on Steemit (I am a small potato as well). HOWEVER, I have learned about lots of information on Korean through your blogs since the very beginning days that I entered the steemit world. In my opinion, you are the best writer who are continuously focused on the Asian culture and really do a great job. Please enjoy your writing! Look forward to see your works in the future.

Hello @slowwalker happy to see again. I read your post and I'm glad you are willing to help people like us. I exactly faced what you said in your post. I recently being active in this community. I was exited to earn steem after seeing people earning 100$ steem per post. As results I started to copy content from internet and got mass down-voted from other people. Didn't get second chance to correct my mistake that for plagiarism , people react like this here. Anyway, I learned my lesson. keep blogging. Happy blogging.

This mode is utopia, there is no freedom of speech, no freedom to vote, no freedom of thought, you simply get the minuses for all the options.

Until the negative campaign changes, nothing will change significantly, this is more than an investment.

You're on to something here. Your blogs are very nice and I see you engage with your readers. It also seems you're doing important work of documentation. I appreciate that - I do a bit of that myself, but not on your level, so I know how hard it is actually.

However, like you've noticed, Haejin/Ranchorelaxo is using your blog to farm rewards. He's using you as some kind of human shield, since most people won't want to flag someone with your large stake, and quality of blog. The community is standing up to him and unfortunately your blog is getting hit as a result.

@slowwalker it's really sad how things are on steem right now. I don't know if to say am unlucky or now? Before i managed to get a vote worth
Worth $1 the price of steem was around $5 I wished I have just 10 steem which can solve some problems for a local girl just $50. So I started posting but nothing came out of it. I never gave up. I started getting support from friends at that time the price of steem dropped drastically and with my 1099SP which is work nothing. Is this bad luck? Please don't power down everything, we need people like you here. Thank you

dreamryder007 5 years ago

The cost to run steem is less than 1 penny per steem. You comment would suggest that you are happy with that price point. Since running something on steem is all that matters....

I would suggest Steem could be more than it is currently but not without a change at the top of steems food chain.

I have always agreed, for 3 years, that Steem is massively missing out on potential due to mismanagment and lack of organisation. I was just highlighting that your suggestion for a project that is better than Steem is actually one that is a Steem project.

Actually, I will keep posting no matter how much reward I get. Exploring Buddhist culture is one of the greatest joy in my life. Perhaps I will get high rewards for a few weeks continuously because powering down takes several weeks. I'll continue to post even if the reward reduces after a few weeks.

I received many downvoting for a long time. I've been got so much complain that my posts are not worthy. How can I keep writing when they continue to downvote me for being too rewarded? That's the reason why I am powering down(, and keep posting)
Downvoting prevents authors from receiving rewards. Of course, I was rewarded a lot despite downvoting. But it is undeniable that there are bloggers who have not been rewarded because of downvoting. Why is it wrong to call this situation as censorship?
Actually, I admit the situation on my blog and will do what I can. I think you're the one being sensitive.

The ones who have the most Steem Power are exactly the ones who support you. When I vote for you, then I have minuses, and when they vote for the same people, they say that I do not know what distinguishes between a good post and a bad post. Then you have offers for your Steem Power, I don't think this has anything to do with logic, they talk but they don't do what they say mostly.

If you say your opinion then they attack you again, and you have chosen the path of love, to take off your power and simply not have the power to vote randomly 1000 people, it is clear to me.

Your posts are beautiful, I follow you wholeheartedly and would like to meet you.

I wish you all the best, see you at the top.
