New community goals rules and guidelines
The problem of activity has been on my mind for a long time, most people come online create their post and then drop it in the channels. This does not work as they are asking for support, but not showing any support.
The primary objective it to help the community grow together and get everyone to support each other.
The biggest change:
- Support will be given to those who support the other members within the community, this means that comments will get higher weighted votes than posts made by the same user.
- Comments will now be voted on. Quality will be assessed before votes are given.
- Channels will be divided, strict rules will be applied so make sure to check them out.
support_proof channel:
Drop only the name of the person and if you have commented or upvoted their post. The more support you give the more you will receive. This will be checked daily, comments on posts will also be checked (so make good comments)
Promotion channel has changed:
- Now post and comment channel
- General channel
Division of channels:
- Posting and commenting channels are now divided between all the sub-communities. Thus each sub-community will have their own post and comment promotion channels.
- The rules will be strict as to allow proper function of these channels.
Rules:
- You can either drop your link of either your comment or post in the specified channel. ONLY ONE PER DAY.
- There are multiple post and comment promotion channels, make sure to use the one assigned to your sub-community or the main one. ONLY ONE OF THE CHANNELS.
- If your link is found in more than one of these channels your post or comment will simply be missed by the curator. THERE will be NO RE-SUBMITTING.
- Comments on the same user will not be voted on, each day comments must be on someone new to get your upvote.
If you are struggling with these new rules stick to the main post and comment promotion channel and be active in the community by supporting others.
New Goals:
Commenting is one of the best ways to meet new people on steemit, it is also one of the best ways to make friends and get followers.
- Teach users and members how to be active and get the most out of steemit
- Help them help each other, this forming a unit of friendship and support
- Get users to be more proactive in the community and steemit in general
- Help users understand that their support means something, even if it is small
For any suggestions on way to improve the system please test it out and give feedback on the next community post. If you have any questions about the above info feel free to ask or make any suggestions.
Support the community makes everyone happy these new guideline shows more community
this is the thing we need to do and its make community more beautiful more beneficial .. i am here for support this community although i am also a new member .. you are going to very good work .. upvoted @dragonslayer109 upvoted @mrblu upvoted @funtoz
This is good improvement, commenting is another good way to support one another, recently, I found out that commenting on other people’s work generates more rewards to me than some of my posts, it doesn’t stop there, constant good comments on other people’s posts can force them to visit your own work and support you too.
Life is all about give and take.
Good post @dragonslayer.
This is a great initiative man!
Yeah i really agree with you @dragonslayer its goes beyond posting a post i see steemit community as a humanitarian support grand wre Wat ever u put is Wat u get back.
When you visit people's blog and upvote dy post others too must one day do so to u thanks for sharing
Post resteem @japfive
HEY @dragonslayer109,
These are the changes I have been looking forward to in all the Discord servers concerning Steemit. I have been preaching this gospel for a long time. I even set up a challenge (#Hug-Challenge!) that helps people to do exactly this sort of thing. Thank the heavens that you have adopted it.
Its really an amazing way. We gain support by supporting others too. No man is an island especially not on Steemit. We all need each other to succeed. This way everyone benefits...
Thanks for the beautiful works you are doing to promote Africa and her citizens via Steemit. Cheers brov.
#Hug-CHALLENGE!
We have done something like this is a smaller community that I am in and I decided that it was time to test it out here. Only time will tell if this is going to work well.
Yeah brov, It will definitely work well for the serious people. The spammers, scammers and trollers will just quietly remove themselves... Cheers!
It will definitely work. It is a good idea.
Well as I can read all the rules are sound nice but I don't understand how do you manage the upvote of someone. Like if I would someone and also helping peoples to grow but even after that if I am not getting a upvote on my post but would be the solution you have for this. And the concept is really great and it seems like that I will be making many more friends there and I really appreciate that you start something like that.
I agree with funatoz.
Thank my friend
Instead of you getting an upvote for your post you will get it on your comment. As the new system on steemit is linear it would be the exact same amount as what would go on a post.
Ok I want to bee the part of your community so what should I do .
Where are you from?
Hey my friend I am from India.
@funatoz, currently the community discord channel is exclusively for Africans, with time this may change. @dragonslayer109, I hope this my info is correct. Thank you.

Nice post. Please follow me, upvote and comments on my post. just like I did.
not gonna lie that did fry my brain a little reading this but i think i get it....
Steemit chat is just one big spam bot for me at this point but will stick it out and try to make friends...Atleast with the Sa group for now... thanks for trying so hard
