Incredible Power of Giving >> We Rise by Lifting Other Dtubers and specially New Dtubers

I’m sorry no description here because I had to listen to the feedback from fellow Dtuber that no body is watching the Dtube content.

@nathanmars, the work you do to grow @dtube as amazing and I have watched over the months as people have created more content and become more engaged.

Sometimes it just requires a little patience

I am reminded of this great quote sent to me by @barge

356406255.jpg

Keep up the great work and the fruits will follow.

@kabir88

Ah yes very wise quote my friend! I agree Rome was not built in a day. I have no professional training in terms of editing, or vlogging. I am just a Mom with a silly sense of humor who is starting from nothing. I don't even own a camera. In fact the cell phone that films my content is not even mine. It belongs to my daughter. It was her 10th birthday gift. She got it at the end of Feb. 2018 and we joined Steemit on March 12! With out that cell I would not be able to make the little videos that I do make. I am not a pro and I know I never will be. And that is ok with me. I am having fun and that is all that matters to me. I really admire people like @dnews who has such an amazing skill set in terms of their vlogging style. Anyhow sorry I am talking too much I think.. it is nice to meet you @Kabir88!

Vince is and always will be a mentor to me, he’s the whole reason I started vlogging. Then there’s the whole mindset thing, I loved his response btw back to the guy I watched start off here then become inspired by watching his success.

I thought you would be rocking that GoPro Hero 5?

hehe yeah life got in the way Dooks.. you wouldn't believe all the little bumps. My health took a nose dive. I was in the hospital. My Mother has not been well.. and so on.. I think what Vince is to you.. is who you are to me believe it or not. You are the one who lit the spark. I will never forget that. We all have a snow ball effect on each other.. it really is something special. <3

You know what I actually forgot about that gopro it is sitting in a pile of junk some place.. it never got used.. we won that thing at an arcade I think back in August. I stand corrected! I own a go pro! haha goes to show how much I have been through.. not even sure where it is around here.. thanks for reminding me Dookie <3

I believe it! I am proud of it!

I totally understand getting overwhelmed with life’s complications, we must remember this is our hobby and passion and nothing more if life needs your attention then life will find a way of getting it. I do hope everything is well for the time being.

Despite the little arguments we may have had, you will always remain the first success story of #OneLoveDTube. May have been the reason it was so frustrating for me just knowing I am proud of being apart of your success I was offended overly easy, I am sorry for that!

I think you will be amazed at the functionality of the GoPro, wide shots for getting more scenery and video stabilization that works pretty well. I record in 720p 60fps so I can edit on my phone using the GoPro Quik app I suggest you check that out also, almost completely auto edits and free use music built right into the app good for YouTube cross promotion 😉... I suggest you use it in the car with a quick magnetic mount so your not holding the phone(tisk tisk) I don’t want to see you get into legal trouble over that.

This is my mobile setup... scosche suction-cup magnetic mount with the flat mounting plate for GoPro easy setup adjustment and take down. Remember to set audio on “stereo only” and video stabilization on.

Thank you so much my friend and I truly appreciate your encouragement!

Please do let me know if I can do something for you!

You're most welcome @nathanmars, I am good for now. However, there are two projects I support that could do with some more SP if you have any to spare. One is @steemflagrewards that rewards steemians for finding and flagging bad content. The other is @steemitbd, who work to help support new users in bangladesh and guide them on the steem blockchain, this helps with retention and encourages them to create good value content.

I've taken a break from my @dtube videos, but I plan to start again soon once I am back in London and get my camera all setup. I really like your #dtubesnap initiative. It seems to have captured the imagination of many people.

@kabir88

Oh hell yeah you didn’t say no comment today 💪😀😀

As a creator the engagement to me is like the fire in a steam engine (maybe a steem engine in this case) it fuels me to make more content and lets me know the content I’m making is being watched (as it’s intended for)

You’re right people shouldn’t be dropping links or unrelated comments looking for upvotes or to promote & at the moment there’s a lot to be sorted out on this platform if it is to become a viable challenge to mainstream sites. The very thing that makes this unique compared to main steam sites is the same thing that is causing lack luster engagement & people trying to cheat the system. Being rewarded for content is a privilege not a right.

I intend making a video about exactly this but going to leave it until my days off as I want to do it justice and not rush it out. I’ve got some other ideas for videos meanwhile.

Hope as well with you. Peace

Hmm, you and I think a lot alike lol

I was wondering if the new RC system could be worked with flags to essentially neutralize flagged accounts which have had their rep drop such as most spammy accounts being smaller 😉

Posted using Partiko iOS

Yes indeed we do! There’s bound to be loads of ways they can be used. @techcoderx what do you think? Possible?

Posted using Partiko iOS

I think this would be a question for @ned, I know they can make adjustment to the RC system without needing to replay the entire chain but I’m not certain they have really looked at the possibilities of using it combined with flags for spam cleanup. Essentially larger accounts would remain safe unless faced with a massive coordinated attack so I don’t see to much problem with implementing punishments using RC.

Building communities

I spent 9 hours and $100, time and energy thinking about bringing something creative to the blockchain that spurs engagement, inspired by your 7777 delegation announcement, REA[d]. Now you are saying that engagement is specific to new people and only to help new people grow? What about for entertainment's sake? I posted a link in one of your videos in a response to a reply to my comment, is that what you are referring to when it comes to posting links? @dtube didn't even like the REA[d] idea... what a demoralizing day on dtube!

Posted using Partiko Android

Don't worry my brother Nathan you probably gonna get my delegation.

I want all kind of engagement for sure. When there's a need for video response why not. I'm sure every single person imagine something new.

It was very surprising to see many new Dtuber's getting absolutely no comments and when there is a comments it's either automated ones or somebody is try to sell something.

slowly but surely the 7 people who's gonna get my 7777SP delegation will be told what to do with empowering Dtube engagement and I'll be listening to their ideas too :)

@dtube upset me today. Really worked hard on something, they do not upvote quality. I don't "need" the upvote and I have received many votes because I do this for fun. It is just hard to know what is considered quality content these days. Very sad.

Posted using Partiko Android

Don't be sad brother!

Do you remember that I got sad few months back when I worked so hard to promote Dtube in London and I got upset with no upvote from Drtube and posted the video and you and @reseller and @d00k13 responded.

Dtube is the community and there are good people out here and we'll be here with you.

If you're upset just do a quick DtubeSnap and We'll make you feel better with our comments or video response and possibly a phone call

I'm in writing creative mode right now. When you make the snaps, do you do the whole thing from your phone?

Posted using Partiko Android

I’m glad hear!

Yes 100% from my phone

I only have 7 apps on my phone and all notifications are turned off

2CA10F44-8952-4358-AC7D-5E53B1EC9009.png

Lol, I'm just now seeing this. I like how one of the apps is a compass. Is that in case you get lost? What do you use to edit, the camera app?

It was seeing you @nathanmars become frustrated with the system that made me reach out to you, I know how difficult first hand how hard it is not being recognized for your efforts.

I try take a self empowering approach and make it a challenge but at times I think it’s also just luck of the draw depending on many factors.

PS my interaction has dropped hoping you will empower someone other then myself further 😉

I’m doing quite ok where I’m at but someone like @zainen or many others I could list may really make an impact with a little influence.

My first interaction with you @zainen was one of those “I gotta keep this guy close” moments, your work has always been amazing. You have a nac for networking watching you very quickly make a solid entry. You volunteered to help with onelove how ever you could which was greatly appreciated, you even worked with @cgbartow with @cgp logos and intro if I’m correct.

Judgement of quality and completion on a piece of art comes not from the consumer but rather the creator. I consider my works to be therapeutic therefore they may as well be art.

Oops, didn't mean to send that last comment yet. 100% agree. You are right. So the question is, how do we raise our collective standards and pride in content. Also, dtube changed how they voted, I thought. Isn't there a board of people who view content and vote on it?

Posted using Partiko Android

All good I don’t mind you agreeing with me twice 😉

So the problem remains chasing the vote will only make you sour when not receiving it. I think of the vote not in dollar terms but just as recognition for my efforts in what I create. The pride in content creation and standards to go with it still remain in the hands of the creator. I take the approach of encouragement through constructive criticisms for the sake of the author and myself because I learn as much from people as I try teach.

How do we raise the bar? I believe this will happen naturally over time, as more people flood in there will be less votes to go around and that team of curators will have to become more selective thus the challenge falls back to the creator of expanding their abilities. I can see a day when even I will have to really put something amazing together to receive recognition for my efforts but that may not mean being professional with editing but for me it relates more to the layers within my creations. This mornings vlog I picked a spot so I had a fallen tree to relate my message to, things like that.

I still believe timing has a lot to do with it, if you upload in a period with many other videos of equal or better “quality” (I use that term loosely) then your immediately faced with higher competition for the vote thus someone will inevitably be overlooked. I believe there are many factors that play into receiving that vote and the focus on audio or video production quality is only a baseline, message has just as much to do with it.

100% agree.

Yes brother.The more we engage with other dtubers and help them to grow the better for our community.

I got a lot of help here because guys read about my compliant and were able to provide help. I think when people post what is engaging it attracts people.

Posted using Partiko Android

Yes I saw @knowhow92 helping you out!

I'm so happy that you're here :)

Hello father @nathanmars,,,, ?
I promised when I wanted to start posting on dtube, today I would like to obey, which is to make dtube billboards, I continue to do my best to advance the dtube platform

Keep up the good work bother !!!

Yes, I am also trying to more engage with new dtubesnaper for encourage them. Happy Dtubing.

Yes you are awesome, @hafizullah! Continue to do you!! :)

Hello my best friend, how are you, I really like the video that I made and the story is very interesting, I really like it, thank you for sharing

How did you manage to time it accurately at 1 minute? 😋

You are empowering and activating us to grow and also help one another to grow through our engagement. In no time, we Dtubers will surely grow.. :)

We know many are taking in your advice. Thank you so much for guidance.

Haha I just stop when it’s one minute and some how I’m getting better at it.

Also I realised that I can say so much in one minute.

I can already witnessing great engagement!

I’m super happy to see your engagement skills and see you growing and contributing.

Keep up the good work:)

I will give you a simple short answer. An emoticon. Coz it has been typing non-stop for you. 😁 Have a blessed day!

always love this..everyday i check out other dtuber videos and learn new things but my dtube experience is so low still now i learn too..specially your all videos get inspired me always,,i am new so i engaging always with you.....thanks @nathanmars

Learning is so important.

An active mind keep humans healthy and our engagement with other fellow human beings will let us live a healthy life !

Dtube will allow you to interact with real humans from different part of the world

absolutely! so important. that’s how we grow together. and the effort we all put in today will have a huge impact tomorrow. great message man!

I know how much you care about engagement and I had to learn a lot from you when we meet at SF3!!

man it’s all i think about lol how to keep community engaging every day and growing together. slow and steady wins the race!

I intend to start creating contents on dtube too, but I do not know what exactly I should be discussing in my videos. That has been the challenge I've Ben facing. If only someone could just organize a dtube challenge for a period of time. That could just unleash the dtuber in me. I'm always challenged by your dedication and striving to make dtube a better platform. Good job @nathanmars.

You know,

You can set your own challenge

you can self teach things

you can learn as you go with your Dtube journey.

Excuse and complaining and expecting others do something is not helpful for your life!

Expect everything from yourself and ask for help when it's necessary

Totally agree 💪🏼🙌🏼💯

Before i was like a shadow here in Steemit, Just checking others post dreaming that someday ill get higher upvotes. All those months passed there is a few upvotes i received. This was the part im missing all this time.

Engaging to other people's post, suggest and make them grow. So they can help us also. Thanks for that reminder. i remember the saying that "no man is an island". We need to explore and fly as high the clouds. 😊😊

your fellow dtuber.

Thank you for trying to improve Steem by improving on Dtube. Appreciate it

You have managed to, in a couple of days, with your initiative to shift tides in how Dtubers think/act when it comes to engagement. Congratz, and thank you!

This was a much needed change. A couple of weeks ago the engagement was disappointingly low. Now it's a whole nother story.

My first video ever got an incredible amount of love/support and I think that most of it can be attributed to your initiative to increase real, honest engagement. + the commentts I made on other peoples content made them come to my content which is nice to see that they actually care.

Thank you and I appreciate your contribution so far!

I know what you’re capable of!

Most of the Dtubers can learn from you, what is real engagement is and I’m super excited for you!

Thanks for the kind words! I definitely need as much encouragement as I can get in my beginnings. Every beginning is hard, and this was one of the hardest things I've done in a while now.

Mostly because of my broken english and bad memory. Hard to keep up the train of thoughts sometimes but I'll keep doing my best to be a little bit better every day.

I'm glad you think that way! I wish the day had more than 24h so that I can watch more dtube content and engage more. The reactions I got so far were nothing but positive and I feed of positivity as it inspires and invites more positivity in my life.

I see a real value in your ability!

Please watch video from 11 mins to 12 mins and you’ll realise something

Thanks for recognizing that!

What he said gave me a completely nother perspective on my accent and it was truly empowering minute. Think that I can now dissregard the fact I'm not the best at English and work towards becoming better at it.

I love this! This is very awesome. Looks like you have a lot of other great videos up that I need to go check out :) Keep up the good work. I try to make sure that all of my engagements and posts are productive and building/uplifting as well. Cheers mate!

Thanks a lot mate!

All my fellow dtubers are awesome too:)

Have a wonderful day and I’ll be your follower from today!

Thanks, same!! Yea I need to get involved more in DTube. I'm still such a newb for that aspect of this site. Cheers!

“In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities, but in the expert's there are few”

I’m newb for life

I have noticed a small spike in engagement among people who follow you. I think we all can make a difference by commenting great comments on people's post. I especially stuck here in the beginning because of the encouragement I got from amazing people like @kawaiicrush and I try do the same for others.

@kawaiicrush is the Queen of engagement!!

She is crushing it and I don't think anyone can come close to her talent of engagement:)

She is a GEM and I value you very highly within our Dtube Platform for different reasons and I'll tell you another time :)

I'll be waiting for you to tell me . :)

Yes and what I like is that she does it in a genuine way. Shes a star!

Absolutely right. We need to encourage new comers through our add value to them. New comers need to learn more things also we have chance to learn from them. Dtubers like our family. So must needed collaboration.

Please watch out new Dtubers and I'm seeing more and more in the last few days!!

I always appreciate you being with Dtube!

Have a wonderful day :)

let me load the video first because my phone is going to die my data is too low..

Please don’t put too much pressure on yourself

I am curating dtube every and my connections made my curation delayed..

But no worry bro i will be patient with my connections :)

Indeed, by engaging we can help our fellow dtuber's to frow up, and by helping them dtube can be a bette video platform.

And i would like to thank you also bro, for giving all your effort of engaging and support our fellow dtubers..I really appreciate your kindness bro!

God Bless!

I'm really impressed with your Dtube journey so far!!

Keep up the healthy engagement :)

I really appreciate your support bro, i will try the best i can to engage dtube..

Hi Bien! Fancy seeing you here! hehe The hair cut is lookin fire!

Hello @kawaiicrush thank you for that kind words :))

Hello boss, it's been awhile I can see you are still inspiring as always
Good job

No @nathanmars , all dtuber will definitely watch videos that contain important messages @nathanmars ... I am very confused when watching English-speaking videos without any text,,,
Likewise most dtuber in Indonesia ...
I really expect a little description of every video of people who speak English, maybe this represents the hope of most dtuber in Indonesia ...
Thank you for sharing... 😊

Many here are paying attention to Fuck all but Themselves. Its contageous.
Gonna take Lots of work to make Steemit work. And no one wants to work!...so this could take a long while. Or just miss the boat all together.

Thank you for the infomations of supporting new people like us

Absolutely Right

Why ?

those are trying to do something new and create value on this platform like me I think this initiative inspire them to contribute more

engagement.gif

I have always been a thinker. I am also fascinated by people, and all of the beautiful different walks of life. So when I see their content I literally soak it in and absorb them. I want to know more, I want to discover the person.. I need to know how the story ends.. which is why I watch until the end. And if I can't I let them know because I want to be honest with people. I did this long before Steemit on YouTube.. and there were no rewards involved there for me. I also enjoy the process of sharing my thoughts. I am a very expressive and passionate person. So being able to share what is on my mind is never a chore and always a pleasure. I really enjoy all of you I only wish I had more free time to be able to do more out here. My long term goal is to become a full time Steemian/DTuber some day. Then I can give fully of myself. Until then I think I invest at least 4 hours a day.. sometimes a little more or less depending on my editing that day, and how long the videos are that I am watching. Also a little tip for anyone reading this is that if you want to consume content and have trouble finding the time.. what I do is I open a few windows of things that I am interested in. Then one at a time while I do a household task, paper work, or even paint my nails I watch.. this way I can kill two birds with one stone. I find it makes my chores fun because I have something to listen to while I do them. Also I get to see what all of you are up to at the same time. Talk soon Nathan & to all of my Steemian friends <3

I love you guys!

Such wise words, beautiful!! It's true at the end of the day the whole purpose of community is engagement, it's the heart of growth. This isn't just a touch and go investment, when we do it right Steemit will grow to be such a powerful force! We've already been seeing how genuine engagement brings the communities together sporadicly, when everyone is on the same page it'll benefit and be sustainable for all in the long run. Love your heart mama, continue doing your thing @kawaiicrush!

Thank you @alimamasstory! Your "Mr. and Mrs. Claus enjoying the breeze I see" comment still tickles me!

Yeah, I agree as engaging is something which profits both sides the one who engages and the one being engaged because one person gets to learn something new and the other increases his/her own knowledge.
