Types of followers / Does the number of followers matter?

Hi Steemians! I've made a short list of the types of followers that we can find on steemit. Obviously it's not an exact list, it's a satire. I hope you enjoy the publication.

Followers

That big and fundamental part of this social network and many others, are those people (or in some cases bots) that in some way or another are interested in our content. Many of these people follow us for different reasons either because of the quality of the content or because they are interested in what we can publish, as a satire I will leave some types of followers that we can find in any social network and of course, in Steemit too .

The dramatic follower.

The one who according to his publication the end of the world is closer than we think, is always there to the expectation of a moderately shocking news to inflate it and make it look like the greatest tragedy of the universe. ~~Winner of an oscar~~

The annoying follower.

Post about 7 entries per day (or more) and asks you "kindly" to vote and comment, practically as if it were a contract, but it is not enough to say once or twice, it is responsible for reminding you more than 5 times During a good time, like those vendors who don't accept a "no" answer.

The troll.

A typical internet user who doesn't give a damn about you and your publications just wants to highlight "Trolling" commenting anything out of context. That the post is from a person who could create a solar power plant with a cigar and a stick? - That was what I did when I was 5 years old. - Your mom. Or any other comment distorting or diverting attention.

The spy

It's on the web as a spectator, it connects several times a day every day but it is there, just watching over which panther hunting its prey or in this case a whale, hopefully votes and comments selected posts...

The one who tries to be funny ... but he's not

This isn't like the troll, this tries to make good content, perhaps humor but somewhat ... different that only makes fun of himself.

The cool follower.

He always has quality content and posts few times, his posts are very elaborate and he doesn't pray for followers, he post and leave (like Obama in the GIF.)

Reflexion

What I'm going to do with the title question is what's the use of having 1000 followers if none of them are interested in your content? If they are only there because you looked for them with the "follow me and I follow" or praying for them, what is bound is will never be good let everything flow. Personally I prefer to have my few followers, but that they are the ones who interact and participate of their own volition, not expecting to receive interaction after that like a kind of unwritten contract. I will vote and comment on the posts that seem interesting, it's a somewhat different platform and the money usually tempt us to do any amount of things, but integrity and quality are not bought. As a last one I would like to know What kind of follower of the above do you identify?
