Wow thanks for that info! I am actually South African but I don't live there anymore.
I left the country before Starbucks was introduced to SA. Was just curious to how much it is. Still quite expensive but guess people are crazy for it. I prefer the smaller more personal cafes.
I prefer the smaller cafes with fewer people and less hype. When I live now they are everywhere. You can find some sort cafe almost every 500~1000m lovely place.
Nice to have a fellow South African in the group. That makes 3 of us!
Yes I agree, thanks for the cool info. Where do you live now? Following you
Currently in South Korea, really nice here! Fast internet and extremely low crime rates! Lovely place! I want to follow you but the account and bot is set up with tracking followers, so as soon as you reach 50 Rep you are being followed by @make-a-whale
Thanks for your reply. I have heard great things about South Korea. One of my best friends at college in the USA was from there. Her boyfriend was this black guy (black mom and Swedish dad) who had this sign above the door of his dormitory room that I think said something like " I love Sue" in Korean.
His girlfriend's name was Sue. Well, probably not really "Sue" like that but you know often people from Asia have to change their names a little. Just so we can actually pronounce it if we are from the West and use Roman letters!
Again, thanks so much for your help so far, I really appreciate it. My post today got to 1.99 USD within 44 minutes I was quite surprised, here it is if you wanna check it out. Any feedback would be immensely appreciated: https://steemit.com/mba/@pjcswart/maritime-chronicles-episode-9-a-rather-peculiar-industry-12-minute-read
By the way, congratulations on reaching 50 rep with this account, you are moving up really fast. I think 2 or 3 points within one week. I am noticing other people's reps more now because I want to up mine.
I am on 49.8 right now. I am glad that @make-a-whale is gonna follow me automatically when I reach 50, so I don't have to apply again I assume. Thank you so much!
You are most welcome! Glad to have you as part of the team.
Korea is a really interesting place with interesting people. Their names are sometimes a bit strange and sometimes very beautiful. I also bet you that girl made that sign for him since Korean girls can be very possessive and jealous over their partners. HAHA
I went over your post, the quality is good but the really large letters make it a bit hard to read, maybe scale it down a bit. The rest of it was good. =) Keep it up and you will see the increase and rep payouts.
Rep get's harder to get the higher the number is. I think from 55+ it gets quite tough...
On antoher note, your spot is still reserved and sure you will be at 50 Rep pretty soon! Since you are not in the voting list yet and can't interfere with the bot I am running I will upvote your comment. =)
Did you set up your steemvoter? Have not seen any votes from you in a while, I know Steemvoter can sometimes act up a bit. Just want to make sure you set it up right. =)
Now that I think about it you are absolutely right, it was his girlfriend who made the sign. I think she made him put it above his door every time he moved to a new room in the dormitory too. We used to change rooms every year. It probably said something like "Sue's Property" or "I Belong to Sue Only". They are married now, Sven is a maths teacher and Sue works for a Law Firm.
I can't tell you how much I appreciate your honest feedback about my post. Crazy but I was actually thinking along similar lines when I was increasing the font sizes. In my head I was like, "Why am I doing this?". :-) But good to get some confirmation, thanks. My rep keeps going up pretty fast at the moment. I am on 49.9 now.
Thank you so much for reserving my spot for me. It means a lot that I don't have to worry about the fact that there are only one or two spots left. By now probably zero spots left! And of course thank you for the upvote...always much appreciated.
Not sure about steemvoter. How do you set it up, can't remember if I have done it yet? Can you send me the URL?
Wow, they got married!? That's awesome! She really held on to him, Korean girls are awesome to date, a tad bit dramatic sometimes but always interesting.
Yeah man for your posts, do what feels right. If your gut tells you your font is too big, listen to it. =P Still, you are new and learning so keep posting and testing the waters with every post you make! You will see improvement with every posts.
See your Rep will be at 50 in a matter of upvotes, hehe. Will include you in the upvote list.
Here is the link to set up your steemvoter. Let me know if you have any further questions or need any other help. https://steemit.com/guides/@gingerninja/a-minnows-guide-to-start-using-steemvoter-com-or-and-how-to-setup-rules-to-automate-some-of-your-posts
We are currently at capacity, with a few members still reserved. The bot is still being a pain in my behind... will do some manual voting until I can figure it all out. Currently waiting for the creator to help me with some bugs it might have.
They got married yes. I love those guys. Both of them were arguably my best friends in college. Throughout college. Great people. Funny that you say dramatic. Would you say that about all Asian women? You seem to know a lot about women.
Again thank you so much or the constructive feedback on my post. Totally helps I am so thankful.
Thanks for including me in the upvote list. I am following a lot of people at the moment. I hope that doesn't dilute my potential to up my reputation somehow.
Thank you so much for that link @make-a-whale. Lemme see if I can do it. OK cool get it done, I have faith in you! Cool.
