went? is it over?

It's interresting to see how whales feel when they are experiencing what the minnows and dolphins have been experiencing. It's like when they're downvoted it's suppose to be a bad thing but nothing is said when the new people and the dolphins have been getting the same treatment. Nothing is said *silence*. It sure is an ugly picture to see how out of touch and insensitive some whales can be.

Funny .. Leroy never gets old. :)

This experiment is an interesting one though .. as explained by @timcliff ..

I would be very interested to know what would occur in a whale-less world, with them neither upvoting nor downvoting.  If we are to have a future, we need 100s of thousands of new users, who will all have roughly the same amount of starter STEEMPower.  Some will choose to purchase and power-up relatively large amounts of STEEM, perhaps up to 10k, but in that scenario the STEEM price will have increased to a point where this would be less possible for individuals than it is today.

Anyway, let's see what a relatively-level playing field is like - I hope all whales choose to participate.

If the "experiment" had the right intentions now, the experimenter should give back to the people what was taken from their produced value (steem), but nobody can replace the damage made in Human feelings and esteem of innocent bystanders.
Me, and many common content producers on Steemit, surely are not going to forget that they were the guinea pigs for and experiment of the wars of the fight for Power using aleatory targets of any bystander.

That made me laugh. I'm not sure about this experiment. After all whales decided to remain whales. They could have powered down everything they had or at least part of it. Anyway. It's their stake.

I wasn't sure anymore but I remembered it right.
