For those interested in VR, my friend Joel signed up to Steemit weeks ago but did not receive much of a response: https://steemit.com/vr/@congregationvr/hi-i-m-the-co-founder-of-the-virtual-reality-company-does-steem-have-a-version-of-ask-me-anything
He's the co-founder of the Virtual Realty Company. I think he was expecting more of a response on his first post, so I haven't heard from him since. If you're into VR, please give him some love. I'd love to see more industry leaders on Steemit.
Ouch. I missed it. Thanks for sharing. :) I think it would have been better received if he made an introductory post. or one more detailed. Tell him to write more, I'm sure his popularity will grow.
I will certainly send him a link to your post here. Maybe that will get his attention! :)
Yeah, many people don't understand this place is about relationships and making connections. It's not just about posting something and expecting a huge payout. And yes, I agree, being actively engaged with an introduceyourself post is the best way to join the community.
Definitely not expecting a huge payout :) Was mostly just checking if the Steemit Community had interest in VR or not since Luke was explaining all the goodness of Steemit but there's not much I can post about besides VR!
Thanks for chiming in. :)
I think it will take a while for the VR community here to grow enough to support a reddit style AMA, but I'm also excited about the possibility of building this community from the ground up. An influencer here now in the early stages can play a huge role in directing the space for the future.
I would love to learn more about VR from an expert and I think many think the same. Please give it a try. :) And thanks for stopping by.
Anyone got advice on what an appropriate introductory post is? Clearly I'm doing it wrong ;)
My advice is to write interesting and important info about yourself. Add some personal believes and hobbies. Prove what you say with photos. Also, many ask for a photo with you holding a sheet on which is written "Steemit" and the date. As an example, not the best one, here's my introductory post: https://steemit.com/introduceyourself/@diana.catherine/new-introduceyourself-post-and-info-about-me-i-still-think-the-founders-are-geniuses
