I have multiple Steemit personalities!<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

On my second anniversary of being all steemy I decided to break loose of all my old patterns and switch over to my #2 account, @frot, as my main account.<\/strong><\/p>\n

All my out of date little @sift666 rules like no bots, no resteeming, keep on following all my old Steemit contacts, and always include a picture on every comment got dropped as @frot.<\/strong><\/p>\n

But @frot is ultimately still me and after a a few months it was just like @sift666 really. Business as usual but with bots this time.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Like most of my Steemit friends, I’m watching the current debacle with the feeling that we are rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.<\/strong><\/p>\n

But\u00a0 I think\u00a0 that like the Titanic, Steemit has some problems that are far from random. Being a conspiracy theorist I have a theory. But being like pretty much everyone on Steemit – way too small to get away with discussing such things, I’m going to only mention them privately and not say peep about them on the blockhain.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Now don’t panic, I’m not thinking of going back to @sift666 as my #1 account again, and confusing you all, but I am planning to make it my #2 account, rather than keeping it perfect like a sacred cow, and give up trying to use a new anonymous account as my #2 account. That new account just got the living snot flagged out of it and doesn’t work very well anymore. And I can’t be arsed rebuilding it.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

If our future here is as uncertain as it appears to be, and I am sitting on a long established sacred cow account (I really like to sit on cows) with a dolphin sized wallet, what the hell? – I might as well start using it for the naughty stuff I want to indulge in – like resteeming some posts I like, and doing a few shit posts (such as memes and one picture posts).<\/strong><\/p>\n

Another thing I’m trying to let go of on Steemit is being such a serious fucker, if we are all getting a good reeming we might as well chill out and enjoy the ride…<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is all guesswork, and as I said, I’m not going to mention any of my theories about what is going on right now here on Steemit – but I will say this much – whatever appears to happen over the next few weeks, I will be keeping in mind the favourite elite control tactic – “problem, reaction, solution” – and thinking that our Titanic might still keep floating, just with a few extra leaks and a new captain.<\/strong><\/p>\n
