RE: Why Does Steemit Feel Like A Cult

in #steemit7 years ago

I ran into a jerk yesterday, spreading negativity, who then downvoted 138 of my comments -- so, it's not all roses: https://steemit.com/life/@libertyteeth/hey-everyone-i-ve-got-my-first-steemit-stalker

Personally I'm recovering from multiple concussions and as a result tend towards irritability, but I'm doing my best to avoid letting it show through in my communications. I did get frustrated one day a few weeks ago while trying to program (it was my career; I can't do it any longer, it's tragic), here's that one: https://steemit.com/life/@libertyteeth/this-fucking-sucks-i-can-t-do-shit-crying

One bit of advice is to format your text into paragraphs. Also, click the "Markdown Styling Guide" to see how to use bold, italics, strikethrough, etc -- as well as headings:

This heading stands out and breaks up walls of text

Looks like a grammar checker could help as well -- several words are spelled correctly, but used incorrectly.

You gave me a business idea: start a Steemit proofreading service, where for a small fee, like perhaps 0.1 SBD/word, I'll proofread and suggest changes. Pricing it's the difficult part -- needs to be inexpensive enough for people to want to use it, and expensive enough for me to want to devote time to it. Perhaps I could hire employees... (And yeah, I know I'm dreaming as the concussions prevent me from doing much of anything productive, at least, for the time being...)
