>And if they are here why are they not writing? Can they not see they would make more steem for adding a valuable contribution to the platform?
This is your mistake. You (and others) keep insisting that only "bloggers" make any meaningful contributions to the platform. As I pointed out in my post that you said you had read (Content Crusaders), not everyone is a blogger or *wants to be one.* Some people come here to read, vote, and occasionally comment. They participate in the system - and yes, they also want to earn rewards for their activity (shocking, I know). Are such users not allowed to vote for games that earn them a small pittance for their efforts? Are you of the opinion that, if someone isn't contributing "meaningful" blog posts, they should just stop using the platform (as another crusader had suggested)?
I know everyone likes to pretend that *their* preferred content is what *ought* to make the most money and earn them the best rewards, but they really need to get over this and start understanding that 1) this place is not *only* for writers, 2) it is designed entirely around the concept of *economic incentives,* and 3) if you don't like what the larger stakeholders are supporting, you'll have to convince *them* to change or you'll have to compete with them by raising your own stake. Endless complaints won't work well. Trust me on that.
