I have a problem with the first line and point 4.
- Here at steem we believe people are the value and we do everything we can to empower them.
- And we believe that your time is valuable so we reward you for spending it here!
While this is clearly the way it should be!!! How can you say this with a straight face when you believe in your core that flagging for copy pasting titles, voting for friends if there account is to big should be flagged and if you vote for yourself .... with your money ...... DOOOOOMMMMMM.
Steem was supposed to be this great DE-CENTRALIZED place where you could mostly do what you wanted as an author. Then when steem attracted enough users and the value went up, the greedy bastards at the top started down voting everybody over STUPID SHIT (like copy pasting titles, voting for friends and self voting) ANNNDDD everyone left ... go figure .....
If you have changed your views on flagging and believe what you said above then lose the censorship. If they have a big account and are making a lot of money who cares. What if they are not doing exactly what you want the way you and other top witness want them too, who cares.
The first thing you all at the top need to do is get ride of the free down votes. Down voting should cost at twice as much (or more) to down vote someone than the down vote takes away.
The delegated account steemcleaners needs to be more focused and only down vote for porn in the wrong area, scams and hate groups. And they don't need much steem to do that because it is very low.
My final tip is that the crypto token Steem intrinsic value is ..... ZERO.
Let that sink in.
The ONLY value Steem has is the amount of attention it can generate from its user base and the money that comes with this.
