RE: Second Curatorial Report of August of Steemgrowth by Team Cosmopolitan
Thank you for the report.
As a team you definitely need to be more diligent in your selection of the posts of the week. Some are extremely weak.
It seems the #steemgrowth tag particularly is producing few posts of worth. Should that tag be dropped as a community curation tag?
Thank you for your feedback.
I intended to make a post on this issue, infact in this blog I posted yesterday, I pointed out a lot of things of why users do not get a vote.
The thing with #steemgrowth tag is that everyone thinks they're working towards #steemgrowth. Infact today, I scrolled past a lot of diary games with no whatsoever connection to Steemgrowth using this tag. People here are using this tag alot. Even when we skip alot of posts, we end up reading powerup posts and promotional posts which are not really worthy of a nomination.
I think, we need to present a strict criteria of when to use the #steemgrowth tag, maybe I'll do it myself but untill and unless it comes from the Steemit team itself, a lot of people won't go through it.
Furthermore, we'll be more diligent in the upcoming weeks and I will guide my team members to only curate on those posts which are worthy of it. I think dropping this tag altogether would also affect the users who are really focused towards the actual steemgrowth. This week, we'll try to filter out more than we have been doing. Or what the Steemit team can do is come up with a not-so-general community curation tag and maybe something specific so that users don't overuse it. But there won't be long-term change or effect until the Steemit team announces it...
Thank you for the feedback.
We will keep the #steemgrowth tag under review.
You might want to remind your team that they need to check the people as much as the posts - particularly if looking at #steemgrowth posts.
For example, taking a look at the voting of the first selected author it is clear they are not really a good candidate for a selected post of the week.
We will be more careful in choosing. We will give our best for the current week and beyond. Thanks for the great support and input.
❤️❤️❤️
Yes, I'll remind them to be more vigilant from now on. Thank you
