I no longer complain about what you say, which, by the way, is true. The last time I complained it took me a long time to recover, hehe.
So now I see things and I better let them go. That's why I get discouraged and go away for a certain amount of time so I drain my complaints for a bit and then come back.
Every day I leave my 10 votes, comments and forward posts. It's ten times a day and I don't see in my notifications where my ten forwards of my posts are.
Living in the complaint or learning to live? Shakespeare would say: to be or not to be, hehehe.
It's a bit of figuring out but you can see at steemworld.org/gertu who you voted for and commented and who voted and commented to you and you also see your posts and payouts.
Unlike others I don't look too often I don't see any point in it since I cannot change it anyway but if on this platform and rarely active, never comment or reply there's no reason to complaint. We both know how difficult it is to be noticed (you do good by the way).
And a break I had too and more than one in the past years.
Well, my friend, you are one of the few people left from the past that kept us together for those contests.... Do you remember? Of course you remember!
We worked hard and we were always saying the same as now, vote, comment, give votes... after having more than 4 years on this platform, we still say the same thing.
No, friend, no. I don't mean to see who votes for me on that page,(steemworld.org/... )
I mean that I realize that they don't do it. Most of them don't vote. Those of us who do vote get out immediately in the notifications. My voting power is small. All my power is invested to win steem. and the little I give daily with 10 votes.
Well I'm glad that even you and I keep commenting, that's why it also drains some power, hehe.
Yes, we are draoned with everything we do whichbmakes me no longer post daily everywhere. It all takes SP, time and energy. I hope a part is happy we still keep this platfirm alive.
Not much has changed during all those years although back then we had good commenters unlike those who came later. It's post in the hope to earn. Without comments it's no social media. Would that large group care? If the tower tumbles they find a new place to drain and wreck.
I think about setting auto votes but it will be hard if I need it to upvote those joining contests.
A happy day friend, no gardening the sky looks black.
🤗🍀♥️
I don't know how you do it. You always say you have a bad internet signal but you are so many places, with so many comments and so many contests. You are so quick to write accurately, to comment, to push people to keep going. Thank you for that.
The comments are now very brief, except in cases of users who do like to comment, most are very poor, almost always a thank you and leave. They almost never respond to a second conversation.
I hope that at some point the taste for commentary will increase.
You know that now that you mention the automatic votes, in hive, I have to marblely, with automatic vote since before he left. It's 0.2 points of his vote. Too bad she didn't do it here, hehehe.
I wait a lot, write offline, there was a time I scheduled, and if you look closer you will see that plenty of my contests do not always run, but are also late at times. I no longer care about that,t and if it comes to responding, I take what is most important first.
I use different connections to get in, plus I know at certain times the connection is sooo extremely slow that not even a translator or messenger works.
After all those years, I learned tricks and I don't sit and wait, but do something else if internet lets me down. I also make notes what to do first, who can wait or is no longer worth commenting.
If you want to be updated there are only a few places where you should check and can read or also leave a comment. For the rest I do as much as possible what I mainly like.
I agree the comments are very poor and a lot has changed. A few months ago, I had a great group of commenters, but many only speak with me or within the small circle so this means without me (not informing/writing) it is...silent, which says a lot about the users of this platform).
How are you @grebmot? I didn't forget you but I am a bit more offline (read: a bit is way more). Spring is hopefully near (it's windy and cold here).
I hope with you the comments and replies (without a reply there's no engagement) will increase but I also learned that if this isn't the case, it's better to invest in those few who lie to share and chat. I no longer see any point in a high CSI by upvoting everyone just because of keeping a fake show going on. This is a hobby friend, and a hobby should be a fun time, not a struggle and a source of stress.
Back then, setting auto-vote was easier, I believe it was gone for a while. There are different methods although I am not able to use them all (I tried Fanbase of the community Italy but I can not make Whalevault ru it keeps saying I didn't authorize although I did), xpitar has one I used (the old system) but it kept voting on the same person and draining my SP so I had to cancel it (and even changed my keys because of a bug, very stressful). If #miner-wewrite passed, I will set auto-vote with help of a Korean site. That one works, can be it doesn't have all the extras the Italian Fanbase has but at least I have something. And you are right, if absent or giving up on Steemit those who stay still receive an upvote which I see as a nice gift (and who knows you even earn during your absence by voting).
Have a good day friend, trust me 3-5 comments to different/the right people or at the right places are enough to have interaction.
Oh, haven't been writing at all, but I was lurking here and there. Mostly been working out and growing my hair out. I should start writing again.
You can take your time but it would be nice to read you. How come you notice you are mentioned?
I keep it open in the background usually and check stuff periodically.
