RE: Poll: Flags or Downvotes?

in #poll6 years ago

I've seen post raking in hundreds for minimal effort that I can't agree with but I am not going to downvote them or flag them if I could because I see people with large amounts of sp doing the same exact thing. I see people who work really hard putting out some fantastic stuff making a small sum on each post and it really isn't fair to them either but in all due fairness I don't want to get caught up in some battle I am going to lose by confronting the person who flagged them that they just did the exact same thing. It's actually easier to talk to the person whose raging, I've done it before and it worked rather well...but it's a never ending cycle. I don't know what the answer is to be honest.

There's a guy on here who I seen on trending page once and decided to follow. At first it was okay but it basically amounts to the same thing and sometimes it's only two, three paragraphs, once I told him it looked like something he wrote on a napkin after a performance at a bar. He makes hundreds of dollars doing a Daily Affirmations by Stuart Smalley type stuff....I've seen authors on here writing intellectually stimulating stuff of much better caliber then his making less than ten bucks a pop yet months later someone resteemed one of his articles the other day and he's still raking in hundreds, and he has his groupies with their hands out, it ridiculously unfair to the more talented who treat the system fairly but aren't, in my opinion, being rewarded the value they deserve. Everything just seems out of balance.
