RE: I feel like Steemit is my home. Is it?

in #barrycooper8 years ago (edited)

You started the conversation with a warning that did not apply to me. You stated "Recycling content like this will quickly get you off the radar of all whale bots." You implied my recycled content would not do well. In my defense, I explained why my recycled content was an exception and mentioned the post already had 200 votes. I asked if 200 votes was good because I didn't know if this number of votes was a sign of a successful article or not. You replied, "What is and isn't "good" is completely subjective." I waited for you to say something else but you never did. Although your comment is true, if you were being sincere you would have expounded instead of leaving me hanging. Since you knew recycled content could repel whales, than you would know if 200 votes was good or not. Now that I've learned more, I realize 200 is good. By you not recognizing this, I considered it smart aleck so I ignored you. All that said, I respect your willingness to clear things up and to compliment me for the first time. I also respect that you didn't ask for any money. If you did, I would have paid you but I would have lost all my respect for you and ignored you from now on. I'm glad we worked this out and I look forward to our future. Peace and love.

Wow, this is something I have literally never seen before on any social media. Only on steemit have I seen two people who misunderstand each other, work each others differences out and see each other on eye to eye.
Blockchains creates honesty, no false personas, which is why I officially love steemit.

@ntomaino & @barrycooper, you guys are awesome for expressing how you truly feel in each one of your responses. It's easy to feel attacked by someone over the internet and you guys worked it very constructively, Cheers!

Cheers

No worries -- it's easy to misinterpret ones intentions via text.

Let me know if you ever make it to the Bay Area. It would be great to grab a coffee and connect in person.

I commend you both for working this out the way you did. We are all learning and Adam Kokesh's first post on Steemit today talks about this thing we call LIFE! I prefer to read these type conversations. There is a time and place for everything, sometimes a simple "F-You" is appropriate. Those 4 letters are quite powerful.
