RE: The Steemit Etiquette Guide - (Illustrated by @klye)

@thecrytofiend Brilliant example of a collaborative post! Great content, great artwork. Sets a high benchmark/template.
I sometimes will say "Upvoted" and "Followed" where I see reputations of 25 or around that figure. I assume they are newcomers and I do it to show them they are getting some audience and appreciation for their first posts.
One feature I think could be more utilized at present is the Share button for other social media networks to spread the good news. Surely this could offer some reward incentive, much the same as upvoting or commenting wilst Steemit is still in Beta. What do others think?

Thank you so much:)

That's actually a brilliant idea - rewarding shares on different social media. I suppose the question would be where would the extra reward come from? The most obvious place would be the curation rewards - personally I think the benefits would be worth the loss but some may disagree with that.

Have you any idea how to get someone's "ear" with such a proposal who has any influence? Thanks in advance! P.S. I actaully believe the benefits would far outweigh any potential 'loss' in this scenario... more people on the platform benefits everyone.

For example, I shared your post on Twitter with the hashtag #Steemit on only one of my accounts. That's a potential audience of 13K straight away. Thanks to some bot software I have installed for Twitter, it will definitely get retweeted several times. Imagine if everyone took part in this?

Thanks for doing that. I'm not sure of a sure fire method. One way might be to suggest it in one of the responses to @dantheman's posts - but given how many people respond that makes it very difficult to get visibility. Perhaps we need the equivalent of a Steemit suggestion box with voting to see how many people agree with each suggestion? I'm sure some skilled user could come up with a simple way to do it and then if they post on it they might get some whale eyes and hopefully the team to see it too.

Man, a Steemit suggestion box What a GREAT idea! LOL...I am asleep. There's a #steemit-suggestions channel on chat. I'll drop it in there and see what happens. Thanks for your help!

@davidbrogan I'm sure someone else has probably thought of it or suggest it before but thanks.
