As more and more *"Tribes"* ramp up on Steem-Engine and Communities/SMT's loom on some distant part of Steemit, Inc's horizon, I find myself looking at how people *approach* this brave new world.

Personally? I'm thinking to pick about 3-4 Tribes that feel *interesting/relevant* to me, and then putting my effort into those. Thing is, with the amount of time I have on my hands for social blogging these days... that's really about all I can *reasonably* hope to do. Besides, why would I be doing something I didn't care about? 

Evidently, that makes me slightly *"weird..."*

## *"IT" Already Happened!*

What is *"it,* you might be wondering?

*"IT"* was the first post I have seen so far that used all ten allowable tags to simply list 10 different tribes... and thereby *completely omitting* having a tag to reasonably — or *remotely,* even — help describe what the post is about. 

Thurthfully, I figured it would only be a matter of time before we arrived at the point of such *"tag soup"* becoming a reality... with all these new projects... and I was right. Saw it coming, from *miles* away.

No, I'm really *not* so *"gosh darned clever."* I just have a pretty good grip on the psychology of *"Humans Behaving Badly As Soon As There Is Money Involved."*

And so, it was always *utterly predictable* that someone would stake their tokens from *more than ten* of their Steem-Engine airdrops, and subsequently use every single tag slot for a different tribe name, just so they could eek a few extra fractions of a cent out of the system.

Maybe I am just taking everything too seriously, but seeing this example of *"Tag Soup"* really did just make me want to slam hy head on my desk.

## *Being Idealistic... It Ain't Easy!*

I guess I must be lacking certain parts of the basic building blocks of *being human,* because I just don't *get* this pervasive proclivity (many) people have for milking a system — *a system that could really benefit them* — for every drop it contains, usually with *complete disregard* for whether or not they are (A) destroying that system, (B) taking *"right action"* as people, and (C) helping to *build* something, rather than tearing that something *down.*

Alas, I am also enough of a realist to look at the world and recognize that it's typically the *lowest* common denominator that rules the day.

*"But the system ALLOWS it!"* 

Well, then the system needs to be *changed,* because evidently people are utterly incapable of self-moderating. Maybe they need to code into the root system that you can have up top *three* tags for tribe names, and the remaining seven have to be descriptive of your content. 

Of course, it's probably very unlikely that will happen. But being idealistic and all, I can but hope.

Thanks for reading!
