were "moons" a good strategy for this sub?

ive noticed that literally nobody upvotes anything here, god forbid actually giving an upvote to help put towards another members "moons".

why is this?

do we not want others to recieve? are we really at that point as human beings where we are in such constant competition with one another that we stop giving out upvotes on a forum post due to fear of not holding as much digital assets as them? are we afraid? is it a rebellion?

or was it simply a bad choice to incorporate this system into a reddit sub? i mean, every single sub o reddit is filled with top posts with a ton of comments and upvotes of people liking stuff, but here, the only sub where upvotes are pretty much monetized.......its just a sea of posts and comments with zero upvotes. Its kinda sad that we all talk of a better future, and growth as a community, but we fail at the simple notion of clicking the upvote button for fear of what others may have.
