RE: ᔕᑕᗷ Greeters - subtopic New Comers - Is New Only Welcome If They Are on Social Media?
IIt would be nice if I receive an answer to what I wrote? Did you read it or do you only reply on an answer? I am just curious because to be fair I feel a kind of averse from the Venezuela communities against many who are not Venezuela since years, so the feeling of being left out is not only if it comes to newbies.
I also wonder why the situation in Venezuela is painted worse than in other countries or is it a habit to always mention it while others keep up the appearances or know no one cares?
How about the poverty and hardships in Indonesia where no one has wifi at home and people join steemit by using public wifi in coffee shops during the nights next to their jobs with only 2 to 3 hours sleep and this 365 days per year since years because of the hope of a Steemit reward?
How about Nigeria always in war but people keep smiling and rarely mention the situation they live in which is far beyond the pictures they show?
What about Banglades, Pakistan, China, Korea, Ukraine and the rest of Europe and the world? Do you truly believe those (still) on Steemit and we see daily are rich people investing and having a good time and are just here out of fun?
I believe we all are blind and not interested in one another and while some always complain about their situation others always smile even though they are just beaten up by soldiers for being accussed of something they didn't do (envy is a nasty and dangerous ruler).
My questions are written above but I will repeat them for you (credit to whom it belongs or?) and add some extra ones:
Do you welcome newbies or those new to the community or a contest?
Can you remember the names of those who join? Do you know anything about them? Do you show interest?Do you welcome everyone or are other nationalities ignored because to your opinion they have a 'better life"?
China, Korea, The Netherlands, Germany, Italy, Nigeria, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Scri Lanka, Latvia, Ukraine, Romania, Bulgaria, Hungary, Poland, Scotland, Ireland, Belgium, Russia, Switzerland, Canada, America, Saudi Arabia, Chile, Brasil and so on, do you know Steemians from these countries? Do you know where they write, what their content looks like, the photos they share and the circumstances they live in? Do you chat with them, private perhaps?
If not you live in a very small world of this platform just like many and for sure this blurs our vision.What do you think of the way greeters welcome those being new because this is the topic of my post! Is this the way or can only elite (investors?) join the club?
Are contests open for everyone? Is everyone welcome or are these just empty words?
Do you tell Steemians they are not welcome and ignore them if they are not in a club?
Or are you the one saying there are plenty of communities where they can post, join contests and earn Steem without going to the process of being screened?
If yes, can you tell me the names of these communities willing to help and giving the time to get used and improve themselves?Is access to Steemit only meant for those who join more than one social network like is mentioned on the" welcoming" message to the newcomers sent by greeters?
_We all lack time amd have hardships to endure and many sacrifice their private lives and health for Steemit. Is this platform worth the sacrifices? Unlike what you might have thought this is not a substitute for a job! It is risky to count on earnings that are not secured. There's no contract you signed so... Is there a right for strangers to ask newbies and old Steemians to do an achievement first before they are allowed to join?
I scrolled through your comment of over one week and noticed you did not once ask a question also your average comment is short and doesn't leave much room for engagement.
I also like to ask you if you want to grow/earn more why you don't explore different communities. Those who will welcome you, offer freedom and are supportive also you might meet new people who can help you up that ladder if that's what you want. 🤔
If writing 300+ words and" "good content" do not bring you richdom why you don't think Forget it, I write what I like and do it in my way?
I wonder what our work as moderators is
On a particular occasions as a moderator I came across two Bangalesh users who made their publication on Steemit, I check their reputation and suspected they were new, the drop-down box close to their username showed they joined steemit this month and they hadn't work on their achievement, but could that be a criteria for not writing, if as a moderator I came across this user and ask them to publish their achievement in newcomers community why does it take so long to get them verified and if they make good publication I am sure none of their post will be submitted for booming supprt till they are verified.
I feel all newcomers should have a mentor who introduced him to steemit and if they don't and struggle on their own to reach a particular reputation why not help them grow (since reputation is the evidence of committed), so I would say can someone not join the platform without a mentor and then find the place favourable, that is where I would say some rules should be out of place.
Many new users who don't know the rules come in without knowing the rules and publish AI content and instead of a word of advise first a label upon label, What differs a greeter from a moderator? A moderator can use the label effectively in a community and a greeter is on the newcomer's community.
The truth here is employ more greeter and set right ways to welcome newcomers, some of their post are not seen becsuse they get flag due to Ai and Plagiarised content since the rules is not made clear.
Do you remember the publication writing is hard?, when I saw the publication I appreciate the writer for been assertive, it is true, when I joined newly writing up to 300 words was a big achievement that is why I remain grateful to the Steem of animal community for alway accepting my 200 words and supporting me. Today I write more than a thousand words and make long comment that I sometime feel it shouldn't be that long as it is hidden by the load more button
I think we should appreciate the 200 real words than 500 words that has some words in repetition and wait for an improvement. Community and contest post with their rules ehh!!!!
@wakeupkitty
The country has taught us resilience, we keep smiling becsuse we know we can survive anyway. Nigerian content creators will say "this one shock me oh", did you make researches on us?
@bossj23 @whizzbro4eva come and take a look at this.

I don't agree. There are plenty of high level Steemians who are not committed, do not engage because they arrived with Steem! If they try to fit in into the part we move around they are labelled. No step is done to help them slowly to adapt to what we believe is good for the steem-ecosystem
Commitment shows in many ways and is measured by acts, deeds just like engagement. Dropping a comment might be a sign I am committed but if I am ignored there's no engagement. If it comes to that the xpilar bot did a better job.
Perhaps you shouldn't ask me if I did research but all those who believe their situation is always worse than those of others since that is what I want to point out.
It's not great always having to read "due to the situation in my country" we all have situations in our countries, or societies, at work, the family, at school and so on. The more I read this phrase the more I think "How long keep you blaming others for your situation, build yourself a life just like others do!"
Perhaps it is the translator or a need became a habit to mention the situation year after year? I wonder what posts would look like if we all start mention our situation. More aid or will the last ones stop reading and commenting too?
If it comes to the newcomers: no one seems to greet, greet as saying: Hello, Welcome, how do you do? Your post looks great. Wow, you even justified your post I just figured out how to do that a few months ago. If you need help you can leave a reply and I answer. No need to install Discord, WhatsApp and friends. I just hope you understand I am not 24/7 on Steemit.
I wish you fun and happy writing.

As you can see my comments are long and only a few I posted, I tagged the one it was meant for and used the hashtag #comment
For sure you can also see that my long comments are rarely (I tend to say never) are upvoted, many are not even read. Those comments take me 1-3 hours writing. The result of hours commenting is: hardly response and nothing to post.
Perhaps it is better to post a comment instead of keep it hidden!
Me parece correcto y bastante Justo lo que comenta sobre todo las interrogantes que expresa, ciertamente, estamos tan sumergido en nuestro propio mundo que olvidamos realidades igual o peores de otros continentes y la cantidad de usuarios recién llegados que necesitan el apoyo aunque sea con un pequeño voto o un valioso comentario. Yo llegue a steemit y lo primero que pregunte fue si podía escribir en otras comunidades la respuesta fue: intenta tener cuidado con eso porque puede considerarse spam incluso hasta hacer varias publicaciones en un día se podía considerar spam, jamás se me ocurrió retocar ese tema, ahora es diferente y tenemos acceso a a publicar contenido en cualquier comunidad. Pero el tema en general de los recién llegados es de atención. Me llevo sus valiosos consejos
Puedo entender por qué se dice que no hay que publicar en demasiadas comunidades porque es difícil conocerlas mejor, pero siempre en el mismo sitio. No sé por qué. Si quieres conocer gente nueva, encontrar una comunidad en la que te sientas como en casa o comunidades que encajen con el tema de lo que has escrito tienes que ir a sitios diferentes.
A estas alturas ya sé que sólo me pierdo en las mismas comunidades porque encajan en mi nicho pero también porque son pequeñas y el ambiente es más diverso.
Me pregunto porque es spam si posteas en diferentes comunidades asumo que no es el mismo texto.
También me dijeron que no publique más de una vez al día, pero entendí que esto también tiene que ver con dar upvotes. Un poco raro me parece si uso cuentas donde se postea 5 veces por día pero si les importa recibir un uovote de un SC no se.
Pjaps Steemit o comunidades necesitan un tram comentando las entradas? Esto podría hacer una diferencia y estimular a comentar de nuevo.
¿Si los recién llegados necesitan más atención que otros? Creo que todo el mundo lo hace y merece una charla. Digo charla porque no basta con dejar unas palabras.
Gracias por la charla y por compartir tus pensamientos se agradece.
Una gran noche para ti.

Tienes mucha razón, amiga, todos los países del mundo están en crisis; y ninguna es peor que otra, simplemente ES. Y muchos usuarios de esas naciones estamos en Steemit, con muchos objetivos, pero uno de ellos es tratar de asumir que tal vez en la vida "online" podamos escribir, pintar, cocinar o crear... y recibir a cambio, por lo menos, un mensaje amable. ¿Es eso mucho pedir?
