RE: An idea to try and Welcome First Post Bots & Info Bots - Maybe OK on new users 1st post?
it also sounds like the user could be overwhelmed by information and get the feeling that blogging here is very complex.
That is the idea, overwhelm them with information in the first post they write on STEEM, It is very complex blogging on STEEM. But it is better that all communities and services and witnesses get a chance to give their information to new users instead of 1 or 2 bots.
If there is a reason and a time to spam, it is on new users first post no matter what they write about. The hope is that education will make steemians better from the getgo and we need to spend less flags and support less policing efforts.
The social Network exists outside of the blockchain, and why invite them to 1 community instead of 40 communities so they can start interacting with people from day one with a steem etiquette that each community has.
SteemSpeak is a community with free speech and explicit content and adult music
PAL is a community so family friendly that nobody swears in there and mixed music
steemit.chat is a default community for steemit.com users where the earliest users rule and no music
etc etc..
This one message would also be tightly reviewed to not allow any information of scamy sort or misleading intents.
Well, of course. An alive community looks after everything important, making sure disinformation and spam scam are weeded out.
Yeah interaction with communities from day one sounds excellent and yes we have to take initiative to get higher user retention indeed. I think it is very low atm and I would say that this is an good idea that will help new users to orientate and stay with SteemIT, lets see what can be done!
