" Upvote and follow me,I refollow you ,I upvote you back" . The new hateful tendency on steemit.

in #steemit8 years ago (edited)

 Some of my posts will not be interesting or too long or a very high quality maybe, but I like to write about the foods I eat and cook at work, the things I love, the places I visited, my thoughts on some psychological topics, my experiences, my point of view about tv, foods, art, history etc.... 

I write about everything,  i want to say something ? I post it. I like to be able to express myself on everything and when I write i try to give to the others an idea of what i like and also i try to express myself, also if my english is still a disaster and i am not a writer so my post are not perfect or high quality, i write them with my hearth. . Lately I have noticed a certain tendency that I find hateful, some even without reading what I write, commenting on "Follow me. I'll follow you up or upvoted, so upvote me back ", without being really interested in the content of my post. 

So I do not like it and I do not follow anyone who writes to me so, I refuse to upvote and follow just for giving an upvote and not because i like a content . I do not like this kind of spam, because yes, i think this is spam. In my opinion  it's ok leave a short comment or invite me to follow you,  if you write about things that i like or if you think your post can be interesting to me, but i hate receiving spam.

 I Will not follow someone just because he followed me without having a real interest on what he/her write or post, just because they want more upvotes that leads to more money, it is not an excuse for spamming wildly.  I know we get paid for our post but i like write them and i feel offense if you do not read them and you upvote them just for receiving back other upvotes. 

This is not a promotion of your post and your blog , this is spam ! 

So please stop, this is not a competition to who have more upvotes and followers, maybe it's a competition to who write or post more interesting stuff,  do not comment with spam please , it is really annoyng!

The feeling is mutual. Its nauseatening when you come and find on your wall that follow me and i will follow you thinking someone has passed by to give a consersion or disagreement to your post. I think steemcleaner should be cleaning all those post

Im happy i am not the only one that find these kind of comments annoyng ^^

I am not sure this follow me and I'll follow you scheme is really efficient or useful. What is the point of having 100 followers that will never read or upvote you? I don't mind having fewer followers if they are active and read what I write!

You're right

ok, I'm agree !

Newbies are trying to get as much followers as they can. I think they even don't really care to check answers to their "follow me"

I agree your opinion. upvoted and followed you!
If I write good post after, you can come my site :) Thank you!

I think at a certain point this is understandable, but for minnows it's a great way to increase your follower base while also increasing theirs, at tuna or whale level it's a bit sly, but i don't think these things do more harm than good for minnows.

It's cool that you are so active on Steemit. You know, the main part of users stop being active after a week on Steemit. Please, type all thoughts coming through the mind, I like them!)

Yes, i like steemit, i started it last spring, i like posting stuff, i do not know why people quit after some weeks, i think this is a smart platform.

+1 uppvote and follow from me

upvoted and follwed you waiting for you to do the same

Just upvoted you upvote me as well thanks! :)

done :)

You've been upvoted, followed and resteemed even though your punctuation, spelling and grammar are atrocious. Have a great day!

yes i write it immediately on a moment of " Anger" .

And of course im not an english speaker, i studied it just few years but i try to do my best, i will improve. steemit help me in that case ^^

"Follow me. I'll follow you up or upvoted, so upvote me back "
I really hope this won't be the new myspace. Do you remember that times? So scary.

(complimenti. sei sveglia!)
