General Complimenting Guidelines

In order to improve the experience of our members, here are a list of guidelines to help you make better compliments.

  1. Empathy - remember that you're mainly here to provide understanding and support.

  2. If applicable, acknowledge that the person is going through a difficult time. If they've been through a similar experience before, it's excellent to acknowledge that they've already had the strength to get through their ordeal before. If they haven't, acknowledge that prior life experiences can help, that they're not alone, that have a support network, etc.
    Additionally, if applicable, acknowledge that your experiences are not identical to theirs. No two people have identical experiences, but they can still provide some sort of emotional support.

  3. It is useful to look into a commentor's prior post/comment history to get a better idea of where they're coming from. If you find a golden nugget (such as a comment indicating a moment of personal power), this can definitely help boost someone.

  4. Don't necessarily give advice. You must know your own limits. If someone's asking for professional advice, and you're not licensed, don't give it out. If you can't give advice, that's completely ok. Remember that people will primarily come here for emotional support.

  5. People may come here with insecurities about their physical appearance. Make sure to check out their post history - if it's full of similar requests, be wary of continuing a stream of superficial comments. It may not be healthy to propagate their insecurities in this manner.

  6. If you encounter someone expressing extreme depression and/or suicidal ideation, please refer to these guidelines (they're similar to these guidelines, but should be followed more strictly).

I love to 😜 sounds interesting.
How do I join you?
You guys have a discord?

Oh, I meant joining the Hive community as a member, right here!

The Reddit and Discord communities were taken over by poopyheads. 😉 Although we can always create new ones based on this new version!

I subscribed on your site, is that how I join? Is it ok to do any kind of post there? And in swedish or english? Or both 😁 lol
That Will be my first then.

And I so love the idea of giving out Great vibes with compliments 😊
It made me smile when you came to me and I know it does to others to.

Sorry to hear about discord and that poopy head 💩
But If you ever create a new server.. I be there 😁
I practically live there as all my friends are there, and I am judge in some contests and all is discussed there.
Thank you for inviting me and I hope I did right to join.

Happy Saturday 🤗

Yes, thanks for joining! With your vibes, I know that you're a perfect fit here.

And yes, please do post however you'd like here - English, Swedish, and any other language you can think of using. 😉

The rewards won't be high as of yet, but I'll keep working to grow this community so that it will have a financial incentive as well. You'll shortly see a post from me introducing more of this concept in a way that I haven't seen implemented on Hive yet! 🧠

Sounds really interesting 😉👍
