RE: Hello steemians, I am Deguerido Henderson and i am going to introduce myself
A one day old Intro post of ordinary content, with 552 votes, $338.37 made, and a 55 rating?? This is everything that is wrong with Steemit, as far as I can see. As I suspected and posted about, Steemit is becoming, or always was, a pay-for-play casino. Content is almost irrelevant.
I agree with you. This is the worst introductionpost I've seen on steemit. Not even verified!!!! 99% of the trending post is rubbish.
It's all about buying bot services to get upvotes/trending/hot etc.
The problem is also that people vote on posts to get curation reward, not if it's a quality post. If a post doesn't have many upvotes the first 30 minutes others wont vote even if it's really good. Then if someone post a cellphone photo and buy an upvote it could get 500 more votes in 10 minutes. I still believe in steemit but right now it's idiotic!
I agree with you friend
Honestly, I'm looking around Steemit and I'm quite excited to start posting here. But where is all the good content? Where's all the art?
Maybe in #art?
@juliakponsford curates a list of art on Steemit, might start there. I also follow @trufflebot to get a list of (usually) quality content that didn't make the front page.
Welcome!
As one toying with the idea of throwing myself wholeheartedly into producing what I immodestly regard as quality content, I too am finding it hard to find too much of real quality among the torrents of dross. Of course one man's meat is another's poison, and nobody should be criticized for doing their best, but it does seem thin on the ground. Certainly on the Trending page, though maybe by ferreting around we'll find more than we imagine.

Should we here blame steem eco system algorithm or people in respect of this post when I compare the content quality and response of this introduction post. Such phenomenon gives slight demotivation and create mistrust between user and steem guidelines. Hope steemians will bring up more protocols to ensure quality.
there are many such posts, his is the target coz of bad english, nothing else.. SAD
Not quite sure of your meaning, but thank you for the comment.
Remember, life owes you nothing. Always remember that.
I think you are confused. I never said life owed me anything. My point was about random mediocre posts being elevated via paid bots, on a platform that pretends to be about original content. I am quite aware that I can pay a bot and do the same. Thank you for your comment.
There are many "random mediocre posts" here on trending page, by the whales. No one has the guts to tell them anything as everyone is afraid to get flagged, and many ass kisser of whales out there..
Yes, unfortunately that is how things are set up. Great if you want to 'invest' in bots & whales etc., not so great if you hope to have success based on good content.
yes, the world is not about good or bad any more, its about the crypto/bank balance..
Or you should be a really good ass kisser.. ;)
Haha perfect pic. Exactly...
No, he's a target for fucking sucking. Utter garbage.
Means people here on steem values dramatization and scandalous posts. I served my all energies to ensure quality and attraction of my this introduction post and what response I had. I guess I am good in english Thats WHY?
@ironclad010 i I read your Intro post, very detailed and comprehensive, a good quality post.
Thankyou for kind words :)
amazing how a post like that exceeded what i took 3 months to build.. and still a plankton.
Don't give up hope, keep up the good content. If you are on any other platforms that you have posted on, post it here too. By the way, I highly recommned Minds.com, an excellent site. You get a lot more feedback from fellow users. and it's not set up like a casino. Good luck to you!
Stop it, you made me laugh hard.
I agree with you ..
how can this be so fast ! 🤔
Paid money for upvote bots and views....
You're right, i'm just landing on steemit and this things scare me a little bit
@mmo-mmo I agree with you. This is the worst introductionpost I've seen on steemit
the guy has a normal Bangladeshi's monthly income in his pocket now! maybe this is the beauty of steemit :)))
in a single post!
I have more than 700 posts and 4 months here and rarely I see above 5 upvotes with few cents! :D
I know how you feel. I have +200 posts, and my account has a value of $0.65. I guess buying bot services is the required step.
Maybe, or did you ever think it was you?
No I didn't. I have written some very decent content. It's the nature of the Steemit system. By the way, I am observing not complaining. Please don't make assumptions, you are free to ask my motivations.
