RE: Report as Steem Representative, 11.05.2024

Obviously the most reliable way is when someone brings a friend they know in real life.

I beg to differ here. Let the account explore the chain for a while. Let their content speak for them. If they leave the platform earlier, well it's unfortunate but a person with good and sincere content is bound to shine and get noticed. Sooner or later...

Sort:

I tend to agree here with O1eh. The onboarder is some sort of guarantor of the credibility of this account, sort of like a trustee. Unless that onboarder is a fraud and impostor himself.
It seems to me even extremely incredible that a person can easily and quickly navigate such a platform with so many requirements and rules, to make their first post well, to know where to do it, how to do it, what tags to use, without anyone helping them with it, saying: I found steem while researching altcoins on Binance. Doesn't sound plausible to me.
I agree with the rest - the account should make its own way and stay. Unconditional support by all means from the beginning, often leads to the need to remove already given votes and unfollow people. Scammers make fake accounts with stolen identities for this very reason in the first place - the urge to find new people and support from day one (especially beautiful women, this is as corny as it is effective).

Yes, I agree. Even though I was introduced by a well-known Steemian here, Hira, I made a bunch of mistakes, rather blunders. I was thinking the same: how on earth is that person so well-versed with the rules? Then, they tried to lure in the support of well-known mentors. I must say, they played really well. But it was short-lived. Lol.

Agreed!

Maybe you're right, but I can't seem to come across any newbies like that lately. Probably the reason for this is the temptation to get SBD, which is why more and more scammers started to come.
