RE: The Secret To Success On Steemit: It Isn't Posting Article or Re-Steeming (For Dolphins And Minnows)
This is great discussion man, I do think people underestimate the value of a good comment. That's always my advice to new users. I think you hit the nail on the head about long and quality comments.
I think it's important to leave them on things your passionate about and interested in, it will come through.
There's nothing worst than lame comments on all the whales posts, use them to add real value to the conversation and open discussion.
"Good job, interesting read" are always so lame.
Thank you for the comment @phelimint.
Obviously, I agree completely. Quality comments show appreciation for the work of the author. I surmise that most of the comments you refer to are by people who do not even read the article. I mean seriously, I can read an article on a subject I know nothing about and at least re-phrase something the author wrote. Not saying that is a quality comment but it does at least show I skimmed the article.
There are a lot of vote seekers...those who troll comment sections seeking upvotes since a lot of authors reward those who comment.
Yeah don't get me started on the damn vote seekers, I can't believe the bot algorithm that make comments on some posts, they somehow extra some text from your post and reword it as a question or soemthing. It's getting to be so much.
