RE: Weeding out the comments RUBBISH!

in #steemit7 years ago

Reminds me of one of the first people I followed on here. He was talking about moving his family out of the city (he lived in another country) but the house he could afford sat where water ran down from the mountains. He said the floors in the house were not that level and there was a basement they could use as a studio. I go into this long post about how the water was probably attributed to the floors not being level and asked if he looked into cracks in the foundation because if they were going to use the basement a lot he should water could pour through the cracks and since they were planning on using the basement so much to check for radon gas. He commented back he never heard of that and wanted to know more. I went on about you could also look online because some area's are mapped out as having high concentrations of radon gas in the earth below, etc, etc,...and not a penny earned for even caring about someone! That was really disheartening to say the least but it didn't take long for that blog-ship to deteriorate after he ran a contest, laid out the rules, then went outside the rules to pick a winner that would have been to his benefit gaining new followers. I unfollowed him and never looked back. He was a total drain of my time.

How annoying is that @sunlit7.It is not even the monetary aspect.It is time.Time is more precious to me then gold.With my kids I barely get chance to myself.So in my spare time I put effort in comments I have made.When they are not apprecited it does get to me.Like i commented on this whales post.It was a nice post.The person commented back but did not upvote me.But upvoted themselves on their own comment.But i noticed thats all they did.Everyone would comment.not a single upvote they would reply and upvote themselves earning alot.Everyone has there own agenda.I am just posting my blogs and hope people try my recipes.Well the main thing atleast you unfollowed the individual.Clearly it was a very selfish connection.You seemed to have spent alot of time ( gold) on them.I bet in future it has made you more weary and vigilant.lol.But we will all see what are individuals driving force on here.You just carry on doing the best you can.I believe thats how you make genuine connections!👍🏼👌❤

Another thing that annoys me is when someone (more than likely a whale because of the amount upvoted) goes down a thread and gives out thirty, forty cents and because you had a different view then they or other people commenting did they give you a couple cents or nothing at all. You'd think that they'd realize that the biggest problem with Steamit and a lack of comments is because there is no debate and debate is not encouraged just going with the flow is. So they really just want to put out a post for the money and be done with it.
