# 975 - End

avatar

Yes, it is the end!

I had a few problems with some so-called authorities here on hive and the result was that these "authorities" and their minions downvoted all my last seven posts to zero.

First they stated: "First 30% of the post is recycled spam from the previous post". As you know, when I am showing a series (Canadian Wildlife or Ships on Coins, for example) I always repeat the first sentences so that a new reader can understand what this series is about. I told them, to no avail.

Then they stated: "Remaining 70% is recycled copypasta from the incoherent source provided: "All info below comes from the Royal Canadian Mint's COA (Certificate of Authenticity) of this coin and from the book Canadian Collector Coins, vol 2, 8th Edition, by M. Drake."". I tried to discover what was the incoherence, but they simply repeated that it was an incoherent source. Maybe they don't know what the word incoherence means...

In our exchange of words at their discord, they said: "Why do you think that effortless spam posting should be rewarded $15-30 per post?". I finally understood. My posts usually received around 10 STU from upvotes, but this post https://leofinance.io/hive-167922/@ronavel/970-canadian-wildlife-part-48 was "blessed" by two whales and the total was above 25 STU. It went to the Trending Posts, they deemed it "effortless spam posting" and their minions simply reduced all my rewards to zero.

Finally, in yesterday's post https://leofinance.io/hive-167922/@ronavel/974-canadian-wildlife-part-50 I made several changes, highlighting the sources, eliminating the introduction and not copying a single word from the sources, as they told me. I thought this would make that post a NOT "effortless spam posting", but I was wrong. Their minions downvoted it to zero without even reading it.

That is a clear example of the word abuse!

I hope @guiltyparties is reading this.

I would never judge of worthiness an article about brain surgery, for example, and I can't believe that people who cannot differentiate the reverse of a coin from its obverse would be able to judge the worthiness of my articles...

This rant is not about the value of the downvotes, it is about the abuse, bullying and the menaces of blacklisting. I am too old to accept that an ignorant kid will decide about how and what I will write on my posts.

So, my friends, @ronavel is leaving hive. This is my last article here, but to those who like my posts, they will continue on steem, as I have not stopped posting there.

Thank you, all!

What a joke! Even though I have not commented much I have always enjoyed seeing your coins my friend. I hope you will pop into the ssg discord now and again to say hi. Take care and see you Steem.

Like @summertooth says, I'm not a big commenter on posts, but I do always read the groups posts (eventually). You've been very consistent with your blogging and found your niche on the #hive blockchain. I loved the anticipation and seeing what amazing coin you would be bringing us for that day.

Stay in touch, and hope to speak to you in discord soon.

This makes me sad. No matter what some folks on this platform think, I and the rest of ssg/sgs know you bring huge value to the sinking ship that is hive. Much love and respect to you. It is hive’s loss and our loss to see you go.

In this case Steem wins! 🏆

I started to post some rather pithy memes concerning Justin Sun and the New Steemit. Apparently I really pissed off all of the witnesses on the "decentralized" blockchain who in their collective wisdom wiped out my ability to post and blocked all my prior posts. It is good to be a rebel!

Wow eh, so much for censorship free platform! Jeez Louise! I left my stake there for now and I vote like an asshole before the bid-bots comes in but besides that blah. That place sucks now but I see it being popular with Asians. Not dead just not a place I like to hangout anymore, really really awful to see what came of it but at the same time I'm thankful we separated when we did and will never regret moving over. Either way it will never be perfect for everybody
