Not to worry, I have taken a look at your blog and I can see you post real content. Which is why I promptly followed you too. :-)

I was just whining in a general sort of way.

All those people going crazy to gain ever more followers are almost certainly just wasting their time. Very few people will make money here in a direct sort of way. I think it is best to use steemit as just one more social platform on which one can spread one's brand a bit.
