Here’s a polished British English translation of your text, maintaining the tone and nuances while adapting it naturally: --- **Did you see what I saw?** I thought I’d take a look around the communities I’d joined, and wow—people, it’s *dead* quiet. Not just in terms of comments, but many communities are barely active anymore. How come? Is everyone being lured to the same community with promises of upvotes in exchange for delegating all their SP? I came across the exact same thing in one of my communities. Let’s face it: everything is done for money and... empty promises. Do you remember **"Ladies of Steem"**? A year ago, it was a thriving community where @patjewell worked herself to the bone. And oh, what a fuss was made when the handed-over community was suddenly reclaimed. Who was behind that again? Hands up, please—and the spoils (read: the community’s earnings) were divided among the moderators. Patjewell left, but not before being abandoned by the very moderators of *Steem For Ladies* (who left her doing all the work alone for days on end). They knew better, *so much better*. Now, it’s been eerily silent for a month. Only one person posted six days ago. I’ve looked, but strangely, I don’t see any announcement that the community is shutting down. **Ladies, is the grass greener, or have you all vanished into thin air?** Did anyone even bother to say the community was closing? I wonder what the Steemit Team— sc01, sc02, and everyone who "mediated"—thinks about this development now. *Job well done?* A strong community destroyed in no time? I’m *dying* to know, but chances are we’ll never get an answer. And of course, I’m just *that* nuisance who dredges up old drama and dares to bring this up. Is this **"what goes around comes around"** or the result of terrible management? I think if you can’t run something properly long-term (and there are *plenty* of those), you should count yourself lucky if you find a fool willing to work themselves to the bone for it. I wonder which community will be ruined next. Almost makes you think it’s a strategy by a certain group. Crazy huh.
