Here is another daily post for @leomarkettalk.

After a run of 5 straight 600 comment days we were down a fair bit yesterday. Being the weekend, maybe this is to be expected.

We were below 500 comments, the first time since last weekend.

It is a new day, let us try to make up for it.

By the way, we crossed 10K comments for the month.

I have a long paper to write for class and away a lot until it's done. Good to see we hit 10K with another week to go!

Good luck on your paper. Feel free to drop a few comments when you got time.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Good luck with the paper. I hope we can have you back soon

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Knock them dead with the paper.

We will try to hold down the fort until you return.

Another weekend day. Let us see if we cannot top yesterday. We will see where the final numbers come in at. Let us shoot for 500 today.

Sorry to be absent lately colleagues. The problem with the internet has continued these last few days and it's very frustrating.


Lamento estar ausente últimamente colegas. El problema con el internet ha seguido en estos últimos días y es muy frustrante

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Tell us who to shoot and we will handle it for you.

Fire a missile at the Miraflores Palace buddy, that's where the dictator and the important members of chavismo are located hahaha.


Disparen un misil al Palacio de Miraflores colega, allí es donde se encuentra el dictador y los miembros importantes del chavismo jajaja.

Do you think it will be solved soon or do you expect it to be persistant?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Knowing how things are in my country, I think it will be persistent, but hopefully I am wrong and they will fix it quickly.

What happens is that I live on an island, and the internet, water and electricity services come from the mainland through a submarine cable and pipeline. And the submarine internet cable is the one that is failing.


Conociendo como son las cosas en mi país, creo que será persistente, pero ojalá que esté equivocado y lo solucionen rápido.

Lo que pasa es que yo vivo en una isla, y los servicios de internet, agua y electricidad vienen de tierra firme por un cable submarino. Y el cable submarino del internet es el que está presentando fallas.

Is everyone there complaining about it or is common place?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes, people complain when it is too consecutive, but they do not go to the extreme of making a major protest because they know that if they do the government will lash out against them.


Si, las personas se quejan cuando es muy consecutivo, pero no llegan al extremo de hacer una protesta mayor porque saben que si lo hacen el gobierno arremeterá contra ellos.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

So essentially its part of normal life. Don't overstep the bounds but get enough say in so they know to fix it as soon as possible.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Of the three, probably the one you want to do without if you had to choose one.

Going without water or electricity sucks.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea without water and electricity would be a nightmare in the US. I was already annoyed by a few blackouts and if you add in no water, I would be screwed.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I imagine people would riot in the worst way if this happened hehe. Here in Venezuela because people have gotten used to this, but it shouldn't be like this.


Me imagino que la gente se amotinaría de la peor manera si esto sucediera jeje. Acá en Venezuela porque la gente se ha acostumbrado a esto, pero no debería ser así.

I think most are. It is really something that is vital. Internet is close when you think about it but for a few days, it can be overlooked. Long term, certainly not.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Some people live (or lived) off the grid just for fun, not necessarily as a way of life. 🤔 Still, they (most of them) knew what to do when electricity or water supply is interrupted (and some really appreciate the their importance). 🤔🤔

Exactly my colleague. Although thank God we don't have any serious problems with water or electricity. Sometimes there are power outages but only for a few minutes.


Exactamente colega. Aunque gracias a dios no tenemos problemas graves con el agua ni la electricidad. A veces hay cortes eléctricos pero solo por algunos minutos.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Power outages for only a few minutes isn't that bad. I hope your using a labtop or something otherwise all your hard work might be gone if you don't hit the save button

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Considering the lack of activity, I think we did the best we could. There really isn't much I can put as a top level comment right now.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

No there isnt. You are right. Considering there were so few of us in there throughout the day, we soldiered through it.

Perhaps we can get a decent discussion or two going today.

At least we crossed the 10K for the month so we did hit the major goal we set for ourselves.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Lol. Does this mean we can slack off? I don't know anymore.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

LOL you and I might be the only ones who did not.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Greetings yesterday I had to share a little with the children today I am back to see what is happening in the community!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I think we were at 450 and I think quite a few people took a break. I am guessing we will have to wait till Monday for activity to start going back up.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

In my case, I just had difficulty finding under the original post comments where I can easily leave good replies to. 😀

Just make a few comments yourself. You can always post links to post you think others would like. Its a general purpose area.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Thanks for the suggestion! 😃 I already noticed that @taskmaster4450le frequently posts links to articles which might interest people. 🙂

Ask questions in those posts.

If you cant comment on the subject matter, ask a question.

That is a great way to stimulate conversation.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Thanks a lot for that great idea. 😀 Whenever I find it difficult to respond to others' comments, I would just encourage others to respond to my comments. 😅

@jfang003

That might be the case. We were slow last weekend and that is what kind of stimulated the push on Monday and throughout the week.

We had never come close to 600 and then we did it.

Hopefully we will have a strong showing.

Ironic, a week ago, 450 would have been fantastic for us.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea I ended up going shopping but I think I didn't miss much during the last hour.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

The last 12 hours.

The worse we saw in a long time.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I guess we will be around 200 by the time I am done going through everything. So maybe the 333 would be a good goal.
