Steem Representative Weekly Report #25 from [15th-22nd Oct, 2024]
Steem greetings @everyone from the motherland-Cameroon and welcome to my blog as I present my 25th report as the Steem Representative.
It is yet another awesome week of work with heads high while trying to scale a balance between offline commitments and business as usual on Steemit. This has not been without some hitches.
That said, below I will be talking about the different activities carried out across the platform within the above-stated period of time.
Steemit Promotion.
Some friends I had once promoted Steemit to them visited me within the week at my workplace. I was surprised they raised up a discussion about Steemit. I once talked about steeemit to them and non of them showed interest in creating an account. I will follow up to see if they are willing to fully join the platform.
As usual, facebook is one of the platforms I used to promote Steemit because I have over 2.8k followers but unfortunately, there are lots of scammers on Facebook. It makes it difficult to gain the trust of my Facebook followers to sign up because they believe anything that has to do with cryptocurrency is fake. Most of them I approached were once victims of cryptocurrency scams on Facebook.
I also used my WhatsApp status to promote Steemit and the often-asked question from my status viewers resurfaces “…are you sure that support is certain?”. I could only reminded them of the time they spend on Facebook and WhatsApp and earn nothing. They should use that time create quality content on Steemit which ofourse, they will reap bountifully one day.
Also, I carried out my usual face-to-face talk within my neighbourhood to raise awareness about Steemit and attract newcomers. No one showed interest in signup but I strongly believed that one day, they might have a change of mind.
Activities with Steencurator03 Account.
It was the 3rd week of curating with the SC03 account. I had 2 days of curating and also prepared the Google sheet for team members to use and input data for our weekly reports. For the 2 days I curated a total of 51 posts as seen in the table.
I also guided one of the team members @max-pro who is a newcomer to community curation work. He is indeed a fast learner and easily picks up when guided. I guided him to create the 3rd weekly report of our curation as community curators.
I participated in the weekly report by choosing two best posts for the week from two different authors for extra support.
Activities in Steem Cameroon Community.
It is a routine that every week we meet online and discuss how to better manage the community. We agreed to keep on with the existing contests while trying to develop new contest ideas. We also discussed having a meeting with old and new inactive Cameroonian steemians and trying to pull everyone along. We believe “…we are stronger together”. So far, some of the old inactive members are back though their activities on the platform is timid.
I had a discussion with some of the inactive Cameroonian steemians and they promised to be back actively posting and engaging in the likes of @nsangou-rudolf, and @tanjong-miriam.
As a plagiarism leader and actively fighting all forms of abuse on the community, I had to ensure that content creators create quality content free from any form of abuse on steemit. No abuses of content was recorded. We hope steemians continues to be creative in ideas and create plagiarized free content and proper use of non-copyrighted images.
I also caution steemians especially newcomers about clicking on phishing links and operating 3rd party DApps. 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.
Content Creation.
If was indeed a busy week but I still stayed committed on the platform. I created a total of 5 posts including my weekly report.
I engaged with other steemians by commenting on my posts. I equally upvoted meaningful comments.
Support Other Content Creators with @chant Account.
I used my effective Steem power of over 55k to support steemians with quality content on the platform.
I did power up some liquid Steem to increase my steem power and supported other content creators for their hard work on the platform.

Preference was given to authors writing creative and quality articles across the platform. Over the week, I reached out to 80 accounts and upvoted 107 posts with a CSI score of 14.1.
At this juncture, I have come to the end of my presentation of my weekly activities report.
