RE: Education For 'Follow Me & I'll Follow Back' serial comments

in #steemit7 years ago

No beating around the bush with you is there? haha
I think for new folks to the platform they need a little education that this does nothing for them at all but it's the ones who are constantly at it.
I even had a girl message me on discord chat app looking for a follow....I just facepalmed myself

You’re right. Truth is that when some1 posts this kind of comment I check his account (long live Blockchain) and when I see that he has done this 25 times in last 30 mins I flag him… For me this is like basic level of intelligence that one has to have in order not to perish on this platform. The knowledge that you at least have to try to contribute you know… It’s clear that such a person has done no research at all about this platform and is here to receive easy rewards and transfer them into fiat right away. This I think ultimately hurts the site because it loses value in peoples eyes when you see some1 like that actually receiving something

Completely agree.
This is the type of BS we don't want coming over to a platform like this but I think it's inevitable in a way because there is money involved.
It will be interesting to see what, if any, changes will be implemented onto the platform to combat this.
