RE: Why I won't vote for you if you offer me something in return

in #rant8 years ago

As a newbie is so tempting for me to shamelessly ask for promotion, but it seems so unprofessional to do so on steem. This site is unique in that it rewards courtesy and respect. Including self respect. I'm resteeming this as a reminder.

Sort:  

Wow, I just put 5 cents on there! My votes are getting stronger! Was only 4 cents yesterday. Anyway... I just wanted to give you my (5) cents and say that I agree with you. However, as a newbie it is painfully difficult to make any meaningful progress unless you find a caring dolphin (or better yet a whale) to help you along. There are several I have discovered that will lend a hand. Spend lots of time reading their posts and become engaged with them. Make thoughtful comments and they just might start looking over your shoulder and nudging you in the right direction.

I like your name :) (and your comment)

Thanks. I appreciate that.
I wrote how I came up with my name in my latest contest, if you are interested.

Shamelessly self-promoting is fine as long as it's relevant or in an appropriate place. Going and solicitating on someones post however is disgusting.

That is what I would call shameless self-promotion :)
