• Being friendly is good.
• Making new friends is good.
• There is no such thing as too many friends.
• The community makes the rules, meaning we ALL make the rules.

You are free to compliment people online, but you are not supposed to say the same exact comment to hundreds and hundreds of people because that is against the community rules. All you have to do is try to use more words and repeat phrases less.

You have to try and understand that there are malicious people out there who do not have good intentions, and they use copy-paste comments similar to the ones you posted, but unlike you (you are a great guy) other people may not have the good intentions you do and they may want to manipulate people so they can get more steem credits, etc. (didn't you bring up capitalism earlier? Haha)

No one is saying you can't have friends or be friendly, quite the opposite, I followed you myself and I would love to be your friend. We are just trying to figure out how to make this website the best it can be, and that means we have to watch out for people who post the same comments over and over.

Please try to be slightly more thorough when writing your comments, so the automated systems don't mistake your posts for spam, and try to read every post you respond to before you respond because that way you can give more thoughtful comments too, which will make people happy and then you'll get even more friends!

I hope this helps! Go Joey!
