RE: Which #STEEM Discord communities are you a part of and why?
Hello my friend! Wasn't for sure actually what you were referring to? Something I said? Or someone else? Or the post? Please let us know won't you? Off topic... loved your post about the Steem Torch Experiment ... I was passed it... little while back. I remember the GinaBOT notification! I was like... did I win the Steem lotto!
not you nor the author, i just consider this type of post a cheap type of shit post. its been done, and by the same person a few months back. i value content that has depth, originality and creativity. simple as that.
I'm sorry you feel that way my friend. I felt it was an excellent way for everyone to share and learn about what communities they were in. Maybe be that one post that someone said, "hey! I never heard of that group!"... Pivotal moment, that changed someone's life? I'm just always focusing on spreading positive energy... I guess I never felt anything bad about it, and love @jaynie to death!! Thank you regardless for clarifying my friend...
i just consider the topic something one might see in word of mouth discussion in voice chat, considering this topic is done to death there. do we really need it in a post where it might become obsolete within a few months? all so one person can get a few steem for 5 minutes worth of work? here's a better idea. make it into a channel in your server, where people drop links. this information should be free access. if i wrote this post, at the very least i would have sent the rewards to null.
I write minnow tips, and help new people all day long here, @torico. Few noobs I talk to have ever heard of discord and do not know what it is. They cannot even get to it to find out what it is. Some are afraid to click the links since they are already so overwhelmed by STEEM.
This is a good chance for people to tell what they like about certain channels in there and why it's good to join them. I am not a heavy user and found two in these comments I will investigate.
If you do not like a post, you can just move on. No need to be mean when someone is trying to help.
I understand fit, however the way to help is not to confuse people more. This post will be of no help to a user because it does not explain discord, or servers. it just lists off a bunch of servers with scant reference to what they are. I've worked with new users as well, one on one and in chat. I know exactly why they get confused so I try to be as simple and concise as I can. throwing the names of servers and communities at a new person is not helping. Explaining how discord works, how steem works, what the function of a server is, THIS is what new users need. discussing what a server focuses on and why, this is useful. Giving them a very short list to start with, or asking them what theyre interested in and suggesting a match is helpful. This post is not geared towards new users.
If someone is trying to convince me that something i see is a glass, then it ought not to have holes in the bottom.
I'm working with people on STEEM how have no idea even how to get to "chat" nor do I have any idea what that is, and I have been here over two years. I will send people here to take a look at the topics and comments to see if there is anything they are interested in.
As usual, I will tell them to go to the blogs of people commenting here that they would like to meet, drop a comment on a good post, follow, and grow their circle if they can. I wonder if they will see you as a welcoming presence here. Time will tell.
Ive been on steem over two years as well, Ive written posts about discord, how to's of steemit, server guides detailing over 50 different severs. I have a library catalog of posts on topics that new users ask about. Im active daily in 5 servers and belong to at least twenty others. I would not send people to this post for the reasons stated.
Do you tell not people to comment when they do not like things posted? Hopefully not. Commenting where you do like the post is more productive.
