RE: How To Get A Great Start on the Hive Blockchain

in OCD2 years ago

Yes, i have seen over-posting on blogs and in communities in particular. It's considered by many to be spamming. I personally think that if they put enough effort in and the content is fresh, then a person should be ok posting on their own blog as much as they like. However, in some communities, it's frowned upon to post too often within the community even though few i have seen have any spoken rules to that effect.

I don't think we would really want the micro-blogging style of just posting selfies or memes etc. as it would dilute the content that does have the effort and interest put in... like back in the Steemit days.

The whales do have a bit more persuasion to offer via their stake and votes for sure. I don't see anything wrong with some leadership in that regard helping to pave the way... but as long as it's with guidance. I don't like to see large downvotes with little to no explanation. Sometimes, a nice warning or correction is needed before the heavy hands come dropping the hammers down. I have been quick to pull that trigger a time or two myself but i always try to heir on the side of mercy more often than not.

I definitely agree with you about the rising tide and us all surfing those waves together all the way to the moon! Thanks for taking the time to make such a thoughtful comment! Cheers

well said - what went on there in those days is terrible - and they had a tight community that upvoted each others crap into the stratosphere - like, hundreds for a shit post (mostly a bad snapshot with at best a few words underneath) whereas you got pennies for a well thought out and researched blog.
