RE: Volunteering Can Be A Double Edged Sword

in #blog7 years ago

In many cases, it is numbers that speak the loudest. Regardless of how valid a point a single person may have, the people in power don't want to listen because it takes effort to make a change. However, if a lot of people complain (even if their motives are not logical or reasonable), change will be made for fear of losing face. It is a strange world we live in, where emotions trump logic.

So on that note... How can the masses of Minnows use that knowledge to influence the emotions of those who control this platform so that our posts get more visibility?

Well, I can only think that minnows need to start supporting other minnows. It's hard because people resteem and upvote those posts in which they know the authors pull in a lot of money/visibility. It's a slow process...I know based on being on here about a month and only having 120 followers at this point. You need to just be slow and steady, then hope your followers support you like you support them. At this point, I guess it is kind of an unwritten rule.
