RE: The Simple Solution to Hive's Biggest Problems - Removing L1 Content Rewards Completely
Every time I see this come up, I'm reminded of that kid in school that brought the football. All the kids are excited, enjoying the exact same playing field, playing by the exact same rules. But the kid who brought the football gets pissed because things aren't going his way. The quarterback doesn't pass him the ball even though he wants it. So he takes his ball and walks off the field. Ruins the fun for everyone.
Interesting how your analogy revolves around one person expecting to play by different rules because he's got the "capital." The difference is that on Hive, there are a few people who have more power than 90% of the userbase, and the top 20 (decided by that stake) can change the code at will.
Or other times I see this come up is when folks around here are more or less annoyed with the arguing. 'Reward disputes', whatever you want to call it. So it's noisy, they're sick of it, so they act like bad parents. One kid is pissed off about something, so the parent comes in and takes the toys away from all the kids. Now all the kids are upset because the parent didn't have the patience or know-how to settle the dispute.
Another interesting analogy - since there are no parent figures for Hive, the folks who are theoretically in that position (the witnesses) are largely silent on most of these topics, are actively persecuting users, or are speaking out - and far from the top 20 because of it.
Also, you're hinting at deplatforming me and converting my investment into something I have no use for. Forcing me to start from scratch. Forcing me to buy some unproven token. Forcing me to go work within the confines of some segregated community out there in the internet hardly anyone knows about. I didn't work for nearly six years just to have it all taken away.
Nope, not recommending anything like any of that - don't know where you could possibly have gotten that.
Nice attempt at victimizing yourself though.
These rumors of stripping the base layer, pulling the rug out, and fucking people; I'm not for it.
Rumors? Pulling rug? You're talking about something unrelated to my recommendation.
You say layer two is the answer and you don't need layer 1.
No, I'm saying that's the only way to save Hive - to keep the focus off Hive and the asshole's who run it.
Some why not practice what you preach and embrace the solutions already in place?
I have for a long time.
They made VYB a downvote free platform and what did you do Kenny?
Nothing, because I will not be using L2 tokens either. I am not adding to Hive any more.
Powered the stake down handed to you, and now in the process of dumping it.
"Handed to me" - your bootlicking is hilarious. I've been curating, organizing, promoting, educating, and creating content for almost 6 years.
You get handed an opportunity that helps solve your personal problems, something you even claim is the solution, but in practice, you piss on it.
As I've made clear many times, the downvoting/rewards are not my problem with Hive - they are a symptom of the problems with hive - Centralization, no shared values, and a broken model: dPoS.
Kenny. I'm not going to sit here and argue with you or put up with your spin and talk in circles.
I'm not interested in what you're talking about. At all. NO. Not interested. You can sit here and insult people all you want and enjoy this tantrum you've been having for weeks now. I don't want any part of it.
The only asshole trying to run things around here, is you. You can shove that arrogance of yours up your ass. Laugh at me and mock me all you want. It slides right off.
Literally no point in listening to anyone who only sticks around to say they're leaving; won't be around to help clean up the mess they made if they get their way.
Acting like a big shot and champion of the people yet the reality is you go from this:
Sitting there collecting auto votes to the tune of 27259 HP (source) from virtually no audience for half a decade, easily placing you in the top 360 earners of all time somehow like some statistical anomaly. All while operating @tribesteemup utilizing a generous delegation from a whale, which manages to extract a whopping 225120 HP (source), that you're now funneling into https://peakd.com/@kennysgaminglife/wallet to what? Feed a Splinterlands gambling addiction of sorts? I don't know. I just see the money flying out the door.
All this massive downward spiral, completely destroying yourself and the community built around your curation guild front, over a few downvotes that you freaked out about one day.
I don't know where your head is at bro, but your behavior is hard to watch. And I hate it that I can I see right through you.
I've been here just as long as you. Been downvoted. I've seen a lot of freakouts and meltdowns. Seen a lot of selfishness and plenty of fakes. And I've also seen a lot of folks bounce back after a having a bad day. But you're pointing your finger at everyone and everything, except yourself. This is hard to watch, but I can't help you. You were inconvenienced and now your 'solution' is take it all away, from everyone. This is fucking bonkers.
