RE: "Dear Dawne" Live Today! - Who Are You Following? And Why?
First of all great work @goldendawne - am I supposed to post questions here? Oh yes!
Two questions:
Firstly - do you think the 'four times a day' unwritten rule is an acceptable ethical limit for someone who typically does info posts and video posts (I have to exclude art and maybe food from this)? I mentioned this as I actually recently unfollowed papa-pepper as I noticed he always maxes this out. I also found some of his video posts in the past to be of quite low quality (rambling and just annoying). Personally I think most of the people who post under the data-analysis tags and post something of real quality involving real work (e.g. @miniature-tiger) have just got much more integrity - they seem to say to themselves 'I'll post once or twice a week BUT ONLY IF I have something worth posting... Papapepper (NB he's far from the worst offender and I'm not @ him because I don't think his posts are THAT BAD, it's just that he's mentioned above) seems to be in the 'I must churn out 4 posts a day' category.... That got him an unfollow from me. I don't need these people clogging up my feed! Personally, I'm thinking twice a day max.
Secondly, what do you think about 'good curators' getting large (>$20) upvotes from their curation accounts for all of their posts, some of which are bit naff (e.g. $20 for live streaming gaming on DLive). Is this acceptable, fair game if you like for their curation work? Or is it generally frowned upon?
Thanks @davemccoy for the post!
Ok.. here we go...
Ethical.. well that depends on who you ask. There used to be a four post limit on steemit but that isn't there anymore as a rule. If you post too much, people may tend to overlook your posts. Some days, rare occasion, I have been known to post up to four times a day but it has been a LONG time. I usually do one, maybe two, a day. I have so many projects and curating that I do that I am limited on time to make quality posts and I will not post just to post.
I'm not exactly sure what you re referring to when you say their curation accounts. Do you mean curation accounts like OCD, curie, etc or if someone has their own bidbot? If you can clarify, I may be able to answer better.
Hi - thanks for the reply. As to no.2 - the example I saw was of a generally 'good curator' who works as part of sndbox being upvoted >$20 from sndbox for their livestreaming of games on DLive... I think they maybe on an autovote from that account, but it riled me a little bit to see that happening.
