RE: My thoughts on human sharing and steemit.
Nice post @darkpurplelight
Nice post, thanks for sharing.
I have been here for just over two weeks and I'm pretty excited about the place. I'm kind of telling anyone willing to listen about it.
It's hard to get started though. After the initial flurry of welcomes it went a tad quiet. Since then I have spent a lot of time trying to get to know people and add quality comments to good posts. The views I get are disappointing and I'm not getting the amount of comments on my posts that I was hoping for, yet! It's early days and my following is steadily increasing.
I agree with you, sticking together and all working to add quality to Steemit will benefit everyone in the long run. A little help from some established Steemians wouldn't go a miss too! ;)
Cheers, Gaz.
If it weren't for a couple of people here I already know, my account probably wouldn't be worth a dollar!
I see so many that if only they would vote! If I had that power I would be making peoples day. Haven't really figured it out, I know there is a reason I'm not seeing, but it seems some whales aren't worried about commenting, voting or posting. I'm glad they are doing well, but what is it they are doing to do this well? Bots? Or are they just trading? Does it cost them something? I know abut voting power, but that comes back in a day or two.
At any rate it pays more than the others and I keep hoping. It's my only chance really. I want nothing but an opportunity to earn real money, I just hope this opportunity I was so graciously given will turn out to be the break I have been waiting for. At least supplemental income. I have faith that it will work!
I think this thing is gonna spike big one day, I just hope I have enough in by then to make something. I wonder, can we switch our sd to sp when its high, then switch back when low? Wouldn't that increase the worth? Like day trading without using a third party, just switching it around..I wonder, is that the game I'm missing?
It can definitely be frustrating, especially when you have spent the best part of a day putting a post together only to get 14 views! My last post being an example.
I've tried a few re-steem competitions with mixed results. I've also entered a competition to have a whale mentor for the month. Trial and error I guess. If I find anything that really works I'll pass it on.
The Steem Power to SBD thing won't work I don't think. Mainly because SP is committed to Steemit and takes 13 weeks to pull out.
Keep going man. Your post caught my attention as well as a few others. If we accept now that we're working for the end game then It takes the immediate pressure off. One post does badly, on to the next! Same for your comments. I wrote a massive, well thought out comment to someone's post a few days ago and have had no response at all. Annoying but move on and find a whales post to comment on. :)
Stick with it.
Cheers, Gaz.
I didn't realize there was a waiting period, I haven't tried shifting anything yet, mainly because nothing to shift.:) It is getting slightly easier though.
Thanks for the motivational words, I will never give up!
Good to hear. Enjoy the ride and everything else is a bonus.
