RE: POLL: Is Steemit what you imagined it would be?
I do not vote because people work. I don't see Steemit as a job. It is social media meaning you should be social. So if I upvote it is because I like what is posted + the person.
It is not motivating to keep upvoting those always ignoring me, never replying and keeping all votes to themselves.
Why should I work hard, buy Steem to give my higher votes to those who never care to do anything back and write what I do not like?
For me, Steemit is a job; I dedicate time and effort to it, so a vote is a kind of payment for me.
You know I'm a sincere man, and I'll say this gently, but I'll say it: They're your votes, you decide what to do with them, and I decide what to do with mine.
If you create a poll, you expect responses; if not,¿ why create it? My answers are always honest, and they always will be.
I Feel you shouldn't feel entitled, you saying an upvote is like a payment for your hard work, honestly, it doesn't work that way, being a newbie and getting an upvote is by luck or because a person genuinely like your post. An upvote comes from people that connect with you through commenting on a post or by upvoting others, if people see you on their notification they recognize you.
We need true connections to get an upvote. From what I understand, steem curators work so hard to get higher SP, it's not that easy, some buy this steem. After all this stress you think they can just upvote you with nothing in return?
People do things for you to get something from you, it's GIVE and TAKE . I'm actually worried because I upvote people but on my profile it is written that my vote worth $0.00 .
If people see that you don't upvote others or comment on people's post , what is the need of upvoting you, if you can't GIVE.
If you are only here to RECEIVE , I'm sorry it will be a longggggggggggg journey
I wish you the best, I understand you take this as a job but you need to be open to interact with people and make friends so that when they see your post they will recognize you and upvote you as a friend
@wakeupkitty.pal you are absolutely right, you are one of those that inspired me to keep writing for myself, I once felt like to quit just the @lupega is feeling right now.
It's all good now 🤝
We all need at a certain time someone who inspires, but ...those who love to write, will always pick up the pen (or type).
It is true that without connections there will be no one upvoting you, only by coincidence.
Let me tell you about the community CCC the former name was: Curation Circle Creed. The idea was we all upvote another joining this community and posting creative content + commenting. This means we all grow. A good concept, that didn't work out.
In the end only a few upvoted everyone and the rest never did. No matter how good you write, most people will never upvote or keep upvoting someone they do not know or like. Why not? Because 97% will never take the time to read the entire post, think it over and next reply and upvote.
If it comes to those claiming this is a job then I must say most of them are terrible employees with sloppy work, which I would never hire.
Let's all go for a #betterlife and be happy if someone comments, replies and upvotes.
(If you are only here to RECEIVE , I'm sorry it will be a longggggggggggg journey) I don't think you've looked at my profile before making a comment like this.
(If you are only here to RECEIVE , I'm sorry it will be a longggggggggggg journey) You are very wrong, Felipe has helped many of us, he helps me, he lends my mother 200 steem WITHOUT a guarantee of return, without even knowing her, only because it reminds him of his mother who died and he seems to remember constantly, he is one of the best people on Steemit, you have to inform yourself well before attacking people and even more so Felipe, many of us here appreciate him very much.
I would like to see you give 100 steem to a user who is sick, Felipe did it and does it, or maybe 10 SBD to a user to buy food, he doesn't even give you a negative vote ,If I give you several, you deserve them.
Downvotes are meant for plagiarism, spam, scam...
Please, take the time to read. No one said @lupega is a bad person. I also don't believe his personal life or what he misses or thinks should be shared by you.
Let's all try to go for a #betterlife. You are free to ignore or mute fellow Steemians.
He deserves the negative votes, I already issued them and I don't want to talk about it anymore, Felipe does not deserve any attacks, we are very fond of him, he is a good boy.
Ok , From what angle are you coming from? Does my comment look like an attack to you??
Please read it again
From my notifications, only your name appear to me 5x
You keep down voting my post
Stay out from my post and comment
Peace🙏 @dim753
I dedicate a lot of time, day and night to this platform and unlike most I do read and do write personal and longer replies. Still, I do see this as a job. A job should guarantee me a certain income, which it doesn't. I can not even buy my groceries let alone the rent of my house.
Where did I say I do not expect or respect responses?
How come you refuse to read what I write? My answers are also always honest, also if it comes to what I wrote about upvoting many while it isn't the other way round.
So this means: those not voting for me are according to you:
What is left for option? Let's see: they are not honest and abuse me and the system???
