RE: Aggroed's simple litmus test for self-voting: Does the content provide value to the platform?
I do agree with you about the selfish will get weeded out over time.
One thing I just want to mention: this is a social networking site...therefore, it takes time to develop interactions with others. Posting comments is one of the best ways to do that. In fact, I suggest to newer people that it is best to comment a lot more than post articles in the first 60 days.
It is how people get to know you plus you can get some upvotes that way which will help build your SP.
Thank you, that's the advice I've been passing on to any 'newbies' that I meet. I'm sure we all spent hours writing a post only to make a big fat zero on it :) It dawned on me pretty early on that if I wanted to become a part of a community, I needed to show my worth or value to others, and the only way to do that was through genuine commenting and genuine interaction with others. It's like moving to a new town; people aren't running to you, asking to be your friend :) It's up to you to go out and make them Thank you again, Cheers!
Thanks info like this really helps. It is like a sea of information on my own.
