RE: Task Token: what is it for?

in #palnet6 years ago

Hello!

The tasks given are mostly incensitive to participate / mingle with the community, and to meet / get to know the content of other steemians. It attracts your attention on what they want to do / what's important for them (some need more upvotes, some needs more comments etc) so it's not your typical do-and-be-paid task thing.

It's mostly an incentive to get to know more people on steem, and what they do. Partiko isn't particularly good for posts of 1500-5000 words, which is usual for a webnovel for example.

I'll look at my tags, though those are the communities who support me the most for the moment, I'll try to figure out how to make the tagging better!

Thanks for all your advice and tips!

Saw what @arthur.grafo is posting?

I joined @marchmadness and indeed found out there is a max if it comes to Partiko and words but you can still use steemit.com

So people ask for upvotes like in steemengine or what you can automatically arrange via steem-bounty.com?

I wonder why people are more willing to actively join this site as for example a redfish league or minnow league or community.

Perhaps you are right and it works but still it takes a lot of time, which is an investment.

You don't mind to upvote something you don't like?

Thanks for taking the time to explain this further. Perhaps I can have a look if my connection is better.

There are actually two types of contents that I upvote.

The first is content that I like, and the second is content that I don't like, but which the author has obviously put efforts in. Because I may not like the subject, but I appreciate that the person has put efforts in creating content that holds a certain quality. It's already hard for people to grow an audience, and even posts which have a certain quality won't even reach 0.10 STU.

In some ways, it's even more discouraging than getting nothing because it means that your efforts are "only worth so much" and kind of devalues the person. To me, it's one of the reasons that some people just rage quit Steem, along with Steemit"s attitude of playing against Steem's interest. Their regular dump devalues steem, and it somewhat kill us all at the same time.

That's why, no, I don't mind upvoting content that I don't like. Upvoting is more a matter of supporting a person/blog in its entirety, than specific content. It's not like a thumbs up in facebook, it's a matter of saying people that their best isn't "unworthy" and a meager attempt at respecting them as a person.
