RE: Dragons & Whales, treasure & Steem Power.
I really like the idea and i'm sure things like that could work well. The only thing that concerns me is that the winners are chosen subjectively. Perhaps if competitions are judged by many within the community, that might make it fairer and more palatable to those who make an effort to join in but do not win.
This is true. But also a part of everyday life. We choose what we enjoy most and spend our time and attention there. A group of whales or dolphins could have a bunch of winners and write a little about each entry that clearly shows some effort.
I also like the idea that I've seen to choose one of your followers and write about them. Even if it makes a dollar and you split it with that person, it's nice to be appreciated for your effort and the community and friendships made here are what will keep people on steemit. The money is nice, but I think is a far second compared to the people I have met and become friends with.
I've had more meaningful engaging conversations with driven creative people in a little over a month than in ten years on all other social media combined. It's a beautiful thing.
I could not agree more. I had not heard about the write-about-a-follower initiative. That sounds absolutely amazing. Another stunning example of community innovation that bring value and connections in a fabulous way. Do you know where the idea originated? I love to read the post and will give some thought to participating.
I love your take. It's very closely aligned with mine.
Yes!
The post is doing what it was designed to do!
Get the dialogue started and explore the ideas!
I really like the "special events" that are hosted by big accounts who can afford to give rewards and also give exposure.
As far as subjective goes no matter what life is going to be subjective. Thats what makes beauty beauty.
I don't think subjectivity is the problem because I know there are a lot of good articles out there that people like. Its just that they are not getting UPVoted by big accounts and thus not getting much exposure.
thanks very much bendjmiller222!
