RE: What you should not do on Steem - Tutorial for newbies with wrong habits
heey I hadn't followed you, follow me back :D I'm giving you my 100% vote, aaand cheering the HF which gave us around x10 the power :D also THIS POST REWARDS GOOD COMMENTS! is a great way to incentivize, since it's mostly about incentives, they are chasing rewards after all, and trying to game as much as they can :) I think that is hurting the established soft "rules" here and bringing down the whole community aspect, but it's a trade off, I'm interested to see if HF20 will break the gates completely, previously I had problems with the removal of the post cap, the removal of the 30 day payout also annoyed me. Currently I'm ok with the new HF19 but I would like to see how it affects the whole, I like the fact I can give out ~5 compared to ~1.6 from before linear rewards are nice, but they bring more power into more people so flags won't be as much of a scare, since before you could downvote 5k or whatnot with just a few whales :D
I think HF19 was good for a LARGE part of the community, all those with small SP and that are probably 99% of the users on Steemit :)
I'm actually not so happy with the vote power increase, a way around giving some post good rewards, is to upvote the authors comments on that post. Something I did from time to time. For posts older than 7 days that I discover and like, I ask the author to create a new comment so I can upvote that one to give the reward I want to give. Although I do upvote my own posts, and that upvote is always 100%, I do get benefits from the new HF19, but I think this may result in the rewards to limited amount of posts. But only time will tell :)
Thanks for the follow! As you may have seen, I was already following you.
To those who it may concern: "That is how you do it! Engage, interact and you get users to follow you! Keep in mind: I didn't even think of trying to get a follow out of this conversation, I just commented since it was a topic of my interest and I thought I could add value to the post. And look at this interaction we have; Giving each other our own experiences and maybe even a tip here and there! That is how it is done!"
I do wish I could spend time with everyone I follow, but I would require some serious optimisation on my time spent steeming to do that :) do you frequent any rooms in the chat I an message you in, I think you are in the mammasittas :)
great comment and great ending point :)
Cheers!
Correct, I also in mammasitta indeed :)
sorry to bring this back up I just found a comment from a few days ago :D that's almost how I always feel and deal with the "issues" :D funny thing is that I've never flagged minnows, I do hope they see some point in being here rather than cashing out some 20$ every week :)
I will be reading your blog sometime this week :)
Thanks for sharing your comment. What you wrote is short and to the point! :)
