Reading through the post I saw myself writing this post may be 1 year down the line. This very much aligns to what I feel right now. A person without friends on SteemIT is lost in the crowd. So it is our duty to value original and effort-full content. Encourage new ones with your generous up-votes if they are focused on quality of the content.
Great thought of writing this. New joiners definitely read these posts and learn a lot.
