Steem Representative Weekly Report from [1st -7th May, 2025]

Steem greetings, @everyone, and welcome to my blog as I present my weekly report as the Steem Representative. This is yet another week for me to report on my activities on the platform for the week of 1st to 7th May 2025.

It was another week of work with heads high while trying to scale a balance between offline commitments and business as usual on Steemit. This was not without some hitches. I had to seek alternative means to stay active on the platform as usual.

That said, below I will share my different activities carried out across the platform within the above-stated period.

Activities in Steem Cameroon Community.

It was a new week with new energy and we had to meet online to discuss as usual how to better manage the community account and other matters. We continued to urge everyone to motivate inactive members when we come across them to come back and stay active. We believe in the slogan “…we are stronger together”. I discussed with several inactive Cameroonian steemians and I made them understand the impact they can bring for us to build a vibrant community on Steemit.

It was also an opportunity for me to talk about new features on Steemit to @pchords4 who promised to be back fully and he dropped a post announcing his coming back active on the platform. Here is the link to his post https://steemit.com/steem-cameroon/@pchords4/i-m-back-for-good

So far, some of the old inactive members are back though their activities on the platform are timid. We tried to encourage them to see the need for us to build a stronger community together. I continued to hold one-on-one discussions with some of the old and new inactive members and they assured me to be back. I'm still to see them take action and keep to their promises.

As a plagiarism leader and actively fighting all forms of abuse in the community, I had to ensure that content creators create quality content free from any form of abuse on steemit.

I continued to caution steemians especially newcomers about clicking on phishing links and operating 3rd party DApps via Discord. This is because they risk losing their Steemit accounts to hackers. I also informed them about “account recovery” within 30 days if not they stand to lose the account to hackers.

I continued with the mentorship of some newbies via Discord on the importance of being consistent, creating quality content and most importantly engaging with other users via meaningful comments. I cautioned them to also refrain from using AI to create content because we have a zero-tolerance policy towards AI users and plagiarists. I encouraged them to constantly power up steem to increase their steem power and support each other.

Contest

This is week 6 of the act of kindness contest on the steem-cameroon community to enable users to create different dynamics of content. I sponsored the contest with 10 SP. This will be a weekly contest.

Steemit Promotion.

The present economic situation in my country makes it difficult to get new users on Steemit. However, I continued to use my WhatsApp status to promote Steemit to my contacts. During this week’s promotion I was not able to create any new account but hopefully one day someone will find interest in creating an account.

Content Creation.

It was another week for me to share content on diverse topics on the platform. Below are some of the content I shared.

I equally engaged with other Steemit users by commenting and giving feedback on the posts.

Power Up Liquid Steem

I powered up some liquid steem which enabled me to add my SP to support other content creators on the platform.

Support Other Content Creators with a @chant Account.

I used my effective Steem power of over 68k to support steemians with quality content on the platform.
