This is coming from a pained heart, writing anything good of high quality on platforms like steemit and sportstalksocial is becoming practically useless this days reasons being that:

* you don't get value for it

* people don't even read it

* when they do, they don't give appropriate reward.

It's so disheartening that a platform that flauts itself has being one of the best article rewarding sites is not really all that. I have already made my peace with steemit.com a long time though but when tribes were all introduced, I felt at least this will help trim down the numerous articles posted on the site on a daily basis as users now have their own niche to fully focus one, but guess what? I WAS WRONG..

The first few weeks of the introduction of sportstalksocial.com, it was gloomy and kinda of lovely due to that fact that votes was now showing on posts, people were being recognized for writing good contents and getting rewards, but then all of a sudden, that stopped. The reason for this is because:

* Most users have their own team that they upvote on a daily basis.

* some people just invests in multiple accounts and upvote their own posts.

The implications of this two actions are that quality posts will drastically reduce because people won't stress making a great post when they know that they have a sure and bankable team Ready to upvote all sort of undervalued content they are dishing out. Coupled with the fact that upvotes won't leave the squad created.

It's bad for the sportstalksocial.com platform, it should strive to stand out from the crowd but I guess the owners are tired of doing their job.

That all I got to say for Now.
