That's what we advice our little Ohana at @steemitfamilyph to be active in the community and connect with people.
We provide guidance and some little support but we encourage them to swim out, join different groups and join contests and activities that they like to gain exposure and have authentic human interaction with people they share interests.
True it is far easier to connect with someone if they share the same interests. It doesn't come out as fake or just trying to get a follow and possible patronage.
Unfortunately a lot of planktons and Minnows in a bid to get patronage tries to force a relationship especially with dolphins and whales.
They vote beg, they ask to be followed as if it is an obligation. Fastest way to alienate someone haha.
It will take time. It will take commitment and authentic human connection before it can be established.
A lot of new ones are in a hurry to get rich and payout. It is a marathon not a quick sprint, sure some will cheat and take short cuts and it's their choice. We what we want is for people to be here for the long haul, to practice creating good content, forging relationships and be a good part of the community.
Yep and even if they are doing alright it often seems like some people just can't get enough and continue to spam in dm's their post links. It's like they are doing themselves more harm that way.
Totally agree with authentic human connection (that’s why I am answering your comment cause I feel it from you) and to that I would add: authentic content created with care not just one photo challenge after another ! Thanks @maverickinvictus. Following you 😊
Lol if you want to credit someone for that tagline thank @ashleykalila for that wonderful notion.
Indeed authentic quality content not another of the endless challenges.
Hehe :)
Hello Ashley :) Thanks Maverick!
