RE: Opinion: Upvote, Comment and Resteem Whoring

in #steemit7 years ago

I was guilty of this. When i first started i wasnt sure how everything works. I thought somehow upvotes effected your reputation. After doing alot more research i discovered this to actually be false. I no longer do this anymore.

I know that there is a getting started section after creating your account but, they should simplify it even more... phrase it more around a social media website than a place to earn money.

Sort:  

That is my issue with it, it's a social media platform first..then money maker second...at least that's how I will like to think of it :)

They need to sell it as a social media platform. Come to think of it.. just google steem or youtube steem, its always the same results. "how to make money with steem" Most of the top curators on steem posts are about making money with steem. So obviously people are going to think its a money making platform first.

That's correct!.....and this money making mentality may just blow the fun away.

100% right on the money (pun intended) :)
