Play fair, be prepared for others to play dirty; and do not let them drag you into the mud- Richard Brandson
Steemit is like a new Planet, a brand new World and the Blockchain is another Galaxy on its own. Though with similar Characteristics of the World we all have been living in for Centuries and Decades, although it was meant to be a different system; a disruptive one where dozens of the real World problem could be solved through the power of the Blockchain. A system where the huge valley between poverty/hardship and affluence/riches has been bridged!
You pray for Rain, you gotta deal with the muds too; that's part of it- Denzel Washington, American Actor
Like Denzel said, we all loved it and asked for more but we also have to face some of the consequences that accompany this decentralized and disruptive benefits that come with Steemit.
This I say regarding several articles I stumbled upon last week; many Whales and Steem celebrities we all know and love are being accused and I couldn't help but sober and reflect on my journey so far in this community where Good and Evil reign.

Steem is for all and not just for a set of people, irrespective of the proportions individuals get daily but it is appalling what several people do to get more attention in terms of this "daily crumbs of Steem/SBD".
I read where a user accused Whales, call Dolphins scams just to get his or her own fair share in Steem. Does it have to be that way? Slandering others in articles to get attention and make more bucks? A fraud on Steemit is a fraud, but who gave us the right to play "The Judge, The Jury, and The Executioner" on these individuals?
We all have dark and shitty secrets, but tarnishing others in other to gain recognition and make money is as bad as the actual fraud, spamming itself as the cases may be.
Hypocrisy is one of the commonest sins in the World right from the days of old and till the present days. A cheat in the real World would call out someone buying votes or selling votes on the Blockchain Scam. A domestic abuser in real life would call out a user with multiple accounts on Steemit a thief and feels good doing so. We all have dark secrets and our dark secrets cannot be known or exposed to others!
During my stay here, I have learned to take whatever I get on my Blogs, never sly anyone restricted myself from Multiple commenting so as o avoid sweet talking and favoritism. Bad-mouthing and discouraging others to stop supporting some people is what keeps many going here, so far they get more Steem and SBD more than everyone around in their sub-groups or forums; that is their own satisfaction.
Greed will not help here on Steemit, because that amount of Steem or SBD you earn today no matter how huge it is, that is what some gets in hours, so to say; your riches in Steem is someone's giveaway on an article, so why go desperate and perform despicable acts to earn more or not let others earn more than you? The rules of life apply on the Blockchain too, if you bring people down to go up; someone somewhere will bring you down someday and soonest!
