Down with the ROI Cult
A sickness has taken hold on Empire Avenue. It's a sharp departure from the kind of share swaps that have long been a fixture on Empire. This sickness says that if someone doesn't have strong dividends - the fake currency payout each virtual stock generates on a daily basis - they aren't worth buying.
Buying shares is the measure Empire Avenue uses to fill in for the faulty computer algorithms used by most "influence" grading sites across the social web. Share buy volume is designed as measure of someone's network value and the quality of or interest in their digital footprint. Buying shares had for a year been the chief mechanism of forming tight networking connections on Empire.
That changed with the rise of the ROI Cult. The Cult has people saying insane things like, "I like you, but you've got to admit your ROI sucks."
Down with the ROI Cult.
