RE: 300th Witness Vote Update- Watching minnows grow up quick from their time in "the pond" aka the Minnow Support Project Discord Channel PALnet.

in #witness-update8 years ago

While this is all good and helpful.... there are thousands of minnows who fall through the cracks of the project... One does not have to look very far to find a random minnow still only recieving fractionals per vote on their posts. I get it, there is simply too much crap out there being posted that drags potentially good threads off the page within seconds of being posted... There needs to be a way for a minnow to shine on their own merits through their posts. i don't know if this means we should completely skip the first page or two to find worthy content, or perhaps teach minnows what is considered great content on here(because i know a few whales posting a ton of crypto threads isn't what i consider quality)... Personally i look to balance my clicks to both minnows and whales... but as i myself am but a minnow my vote doesn't garner much stregnth...

Well, there wasn't really much help before that was sustainable. Now there'a lot. We're just 10 days old. So, we're getting out there as much as we can. Hopefully things will change for the better. Come join us in the Discord room.

my appologies Aggroed, i wasn't besmirching your efforts and project...i am just trying to bring attention to how easily new minnows posts are swallowed up by the chain... it's like even if they are posting decent quality stuff, they're not getting any exposure.

Yeah. One of the worst aspects of this place. The interface through markdown isn't very easy to grasp either. Lots tricks one has to learn to be an acceptable author. Again, more reason why we need to be here. We're trying to flatten the very steep learning curve.
