RE: 300 followers NON-celebration. Please consider UNFOLLOWING me.
Steve, don't get disheartened. I'm only on Steemit a week or so and I haven't read all you have written but what I have read is brilliant. I sometimes sit and read through the old posts of the people that I have found interesting and started to follow. Maybe others do the same. Don't think you have to follow people just because they follow you... I'm totally new and I don't even do that.
On FB I have like 100 friends only... they are people I actually physically have met and are friends with. Here I'm not planning to be different... you read and vote on what u think is interesting! Stay true to yourself but don't feel like everyone who follows you does it for votes. That just takes the fun out of the community. Maybe they are like me... it takes them a while to read through interesting pieces and vote or comment on it.
I appreciate you and your kind words! Thank you very much. I believe that many of us don't understand the meaning of following and a lot thinks it as a way to game the system. In the long run it doesn't matter how many followers you have, you won't be successful if they aren't engaging!
I'd rather have 10 followers that really care!
