RE: Hello steemians, I am Deguerido Henderson and i am going to introduce myself

in #introduceyourself7 years ago

A one day old Intro post of ordinary content, with 552 votes, $338.37 made, and a 55 rating?? This is everything that is wrong with Steemit, as far as I can see. As I suspected and posted about, Steemit is becoming, or always was, a pay-for-play casino. Content is almost irrelevant.

I agree with you. This is the worst introductionpost I've seen on steemit. Not even verified!!!! 99% of the trending post is rubbish.

It's all about buying bot services to get upvotes/trending/hot etc.

The problem is also that people vote on posts to get curation reward, not if it's a quality post. If a post doesn't have many upvotes the first 30 minutes others wont vote even if it's really good. Then if someone post a cellphone photo and buy an upvote it could get 500 more votes in 10 minutes. I still believe in steemit but right now it's idiotic!

Honestly, I'm looking around Steemit and I'm quite excited to start posting here. But where is all the good content? Where's all the art?

@juliakponsford curates a list of art on Steemit, might start there. I also follow @trufflebot to get a list of (usually) quality content that didn't make the front page.
Welcome!

As one toying with the idea of throwing myself wholeheartedly into producing what I immodestly regard as quality content, I too am finding it hard to find too much of real quality among the torrents of dross. Of course one man's meat is another's poison, and nobody should be criticized for doing their best, but it does seem thin on the ground. Certainly on the Trending page, though maybe by ferreting around we'll find more than we imagine.

@mmo-mmo @realitycartoon
Should we here blame steem eco system algorithm or people in respect of this post when I compare the content quality and response of this introduction post. Such phenomenon gives slight demotivation and create mistrust between user and steem guidelines. Hope steemians will bring up more protocols to ensure quality.

amazing how a post like that exceeded what i took 3 months to build.. and still a plankton.

Don't give up hope, keep up the good content. If you are on any other platforms that you have posted on, post it here too. By the way, I highly recommned Minds.com, an excellent site. You get a lot more feedback from fellow users. and it's not set up like a casino. Good luck to you!

Stop it, you made me laugh hard.

I agree with you ..
how can this be so fast ! 🤔

Paid money for upvote bots and views....

You're right, i'm just landing on steemit and this things scare me a little bit

@mmo-mmo I agree with you. This is the worst introductionpost I've seen on steemit

the guy has a normal Bangladeshi's monthly income in his pocket now! maybe this is the beauty of steemit :)))

in a single post!
I have more than 700 posts and 4 months here and rarely I see above 5 upvotes with few cents! :D

I know how you feel. I have +200 posts, and my account has a value of $0.65. I guess buying bot services is the required step.

Maybe, or did you ever think it was you?

No I didn't. I have written some very decent content. It's the nature of the Steemit system. By the way, I am observing not complaining. Please don't make assumptions, you are free to ask my motivations.
