How many of you, "faithful voters" , are actually alive?

avatar

It is an idea that has been around for some time in my head. Personally I recognize that it is something that does not worry me too much but, really, it is something to think about.

I have spent more than 33 moons in this ecosystem and, during all this long time I have somehow connected thousands of people through the STEEM blockchain.

So much so, that I can boast of having a few dozen of faithful and unconditional followers who, because of the possibility of automating and scheduling the upvotes, upvote me continuously regardless of the so-called good quality of my article.

Of these dozens of upvoters, most of them provide me with very low benefits since there are many who have decided to leave and power down their accounts leaving them in pure automatic activity of just upvoting.

But there are some who really disappeared without a trace, without warning and even without giving signs of that.

These followers did not power down but they have not published anything, not a single comment, not a sad comment, or a shy transfer to any place...

Some, even stopped publishing in the times in which STEEM was quoted above 1 USD...

Oh shit! those were good times, right?

There are people like @cstrimel or @dailyrunner who were even good partners and active members of my @runningproject project. They wrote good articles, encouraged newcomers, grew up as bloggers ...

These people, as I say, disappear without any warning, nothing ...

But they keep voting for me ...

What happened to them?

Why haven't they returned a single day since their departure?

What happened to them?

Why didn't they do power down?

I wonder how many of these faithful voters are still alive really...

How many of you are ghost voters?

Unresolved questions and doubts...

Thoughts?

Maybe I'm under other tags or usernames, but you really know who I am.

I'm pushing STEEM hard as ever my friend.

All the best and I hope to met you n person soon. 2019 has been a 'quiet' but mind-blowing progress year.

Hey, @whatsup here.

Just curious how this is political, I noticed you used the Point tag.

You are fully right, I shouldn’t include this tag despite I thought it was not only for political topics.

A lot grew tired of the hardforks and moved to weku. Only the hard headed, simple, or masochists remain.

I guess I may be partly of all three, because I still hope steemit does well!
