RE: The Scam Artists and Blackmailers Are Killing The Steemit Baby, Softly, Slowly......What We All Can Do

in #scam8 years ago

No, the focus should be first on creating quality content. However, what I see in Steemit, is that people are ONLY focused on the posts, instead of realizing this is a social network, and operates in a similar fashion as the others in the social sphere. Some people will naturally be less social than others, and if they consistently produce high-quality content, then that's fine, they can just continue doing so. Other people however I think would do better as curators and also as encouragers of others. Not everyone is a great writer, so what I was talking about is that making friends will help when even making posts. Collaborating is something I have not seen much of on this platform. Collaborating with someone who has complimentary skills is a good move. I like to collaborate simply because it makes the end product so much better. I've worked with many different people in here because it's fun to do so. Sorry if I came across as you thinking that making friends is in place of creating good content.

Thanks for clarification. But a few points to note:

  1. What is high-quality content In your opinion in steemit context now?
  2. You wrote "Making close friends will shield you from the following:

troll attacks
social attacks
bullying
scam attempts

Steemit is a lot like the jungle: groups tend to thrive, while the lone ape will be singled out and attacked."

When i see this, it sounds like a collusion is happening in steemit and is in fact real.

no collusion. Collaboration.

I am sorry but no matter how i read your words, it seems to be using your reputation and audience to put the spotlight on people around steemit without thorough investigation or questioning the perpetrator first, and then posting this in public for profit. Social attacks? bullying? Seems that this post of yours is already one.
