RE: Week 9 - Pay It Forward Curation Contest
I understand that completely. It can be a bit disappointing when you spend a lot of time the just start getting to know and enjoy and pooof gone. I think things like #payitforward and @aspers help a lot with the motivation to stay. That is just to name a couple a lot of projects help with that. The trick is to get the ones we like involved maybe.
That is exactly why I do the challenge. I love the opportunity to help out a bit more than just my tiny account can do alone.
Thank you so much for sharing. I am always interested in hearing from people, especially ones at my level, on the nuts and bolts of how they run their account and why.
I find moving the funds around troublesome. It is either cash some other coins or wait a week for the bank transfer. Then there is trying to hit a good price.
I see so many on here that really need a vote. You cant beat being able to hand it out and still keep it. Sometimes it seems to me like it is kind of selfish not to buy a bit so I can vote. After all it is no loss unless price drops and never goes back up.
Yeah that time thing gets me too.
I totally agree. @dustsweeper helps greatly with some of the votes, but not all. I wish I could upvote more, seen that little bit of sbd there is a motivator in its own right. Most definitely getting any amount converted to Steem is much better than nothing it all helps :D
We'll get there. We have the right thinking and determination. Average time to actually be 'influential' is about 9 months.
Well that is an interesting bit of info. So we will get together in 6 months and compare how far we have come. I just want to be "influential" enouh to pick a favorite newbie or 2 and make a real difference. My account may never grow much. I don't spend enough time engaging the larger fish.
I don't really engage larger fish. I think the largest is Asher @abh12345. He was one of the first people I found and actually responded back. I'm not sure, I think it was a conversation with @wolfhart where that was brought up.
I look at things this way...We're changing our end of the pool if we keep it up we "the minnows and redfish" will start to see changes.
