RE: Hive-Naija Weekend Engagement #27 - "Communities On Hive"

in Speak Peace2 years ago

This is a hard one for someone like me that goes here and there. Anyways, for the purpose of this challenge, I will just take my top three communities.

Hive Naija

The weekend engagement that comes up during the weekend is one thing that keeps me glued to this communities. I love my country, no matter you say. This platform is a place where you can find the most exciting news about Nigeria.
Topical issues makes life easier and the thoughts of other users are measured. Hive Naija rocks.

Writing Club

Here, I am angle to write without restriction in as much as I am able to translate my work to Spanish. I have created a niche for myself in writing fictions and there are only a few places here on Hive that you can post that.
The writing club gives you a title you can write every month. I remember the first prompt I had to write on #Erotica, it was hot 🔥.
Tags to be used here include the following #Fiction #writing #cervantes and any other.

Proofofbrain

This was the very first community I got to use, thanks to @kenechukwu97. He was instrumental in my discovery of the community and ever since I found #proofofbrain, I have not turned back.
You can talk on any issue in the community. There are also contest from some notable users of the platform.

Sort:  

I will check the writing club, seems like an interesting community. Hey! Can I see your erotica's post.

Welcome @mrenglish to this weekend's engagement. Please in your spare time, help like and retweet this post on twitter via the posh token comment below.

You want to see the erotica post o
Why am I suspecting you? 🤣🤣

Suspect!!
What are you thinking in your fragile heart @merit.ahama 🤣🤣

Lemme alone o 😂😂

I was suspecting you too. Hope you didn't go through the erotica yourself.

Erotica ke... Why that one? 😏

That reminds me, I want to join this posh token but don't know how to go about it

I have retweeted the post on Twitter but I didn't find the posh token comment, I had to do it directly from you tweep.

And the erotica.......... Hope it was good enough to be called erotica??

Hahaha that erotica prompt though, I couldn't believe I wrote a story on that... It was hot indeed 😅

That's what trying out new things is all about though.

Proofofbrain was once my favourite, we have break up 😂😂 but na me break up with am sha

Waitin make you break up with pob na. You know say their token will soon be $1.

Hahaha I still dey gather the coin o
I just break up with posting to the community 😅

This pob thing ehn, anything can happen anytime, so keep gathering. Same thing for dream token.

Wetin cause your breakup with proofofbrain? I still hang around there, at least to get more of the token.

I'm subscribed to Writing Club and read stuff there but don't engage much. I will check it out more now that you've mentioned.

Remember you don't have to wait for weekend engagement or contest to post in HiveNaija o...you can randomly drop posts too.

Alright then. I did that a couple of times on Hive Naija but the engagement east encouraging, so I pulled out. But henceforth, I will.give it a try.

Writing club Community is a nice one for as it is just like the inkwell Community

Wait, are you Nigerian?

Why you kon they talk like this na? I be naija to the core.

Always thought you're Bangladeshi 😩

I be confirm naija and from the big heart of the nation.

Ahahah. @cool08 na correct delta. Bangladeshi for where?

I wonder oo

I swear he looks Asian in his avatar and he used to post in bdcommunity then

Writing club are good for writers like you, even your Hive username says
Mrenglish...lol

Thanks for your comment. That name though, it means a lot of things.

Lol, what does it mean?

One of the problems I had when growing up was that I had bad English, would always use present tense for past and vice versa......

Its like this and it is the way to learn. The best is to keep on speaking it and as time goes on you will be perfect. You can see now that you are Mrenglish....hehehehehe.....

Ahahaha. It was really a tough time though but I didn't stop trying.

When you try, you know more

Oh i get that feeling, but everyone makes mistake

You ain't wrong about hive naija giving top content.. An avenue for fellow Nigerians to come together and share ideas

Exactly bro...I love everything happening in this weekend's engagement...its superb ✌

You uno. After a stressed.week.

All I need is rest and engage myself in the weekend community

It keeps me expectant every Friday. I just take the opportunity to pour my thought on topical issues. Kudos to the initiator of this agenda.

I am glad the platform exists. Nigerians are known to be everywhere..

Here, I am angle to write without restriction in as much as I can translate my work to Spanish.

Is this a rule?

I also love hivenaija so well because of this weekend engagement. Truth be told, I have learned a lot here, especially the last week's engagement, hmmm I am still processing the value I got last week.

It is a rule, you have to translate to Spanish.

Woww
Thanks for the info✌

You are welcome

You know, every community comes with a rule. In some, you can cross-post while in others they do not agree.

For instance, the ink well community does not allow any writing in the abuses of children or women, violence or blood. They also would not accept poetry, or stories that have episodes.

Wow...it's very necessary we read the rules before making a post or cross to other blockchains

Very necessary oooo. Failure to follow the rules can earn you a ban or mute.

You are right. This is why we have Communities here. Community without a rule cannot work out.

Definitely!
There will be excesses. Rules keep the community and it's users under check.

You don talk am finish

🤣🤣🤣🤣

You are right about the writing club. They give you avenue to write on any forms of story. Although it takes them time to bring topics for the next month.

Yeah, that's the only issue we have with them. They delay in releasing their monthly prompts.

Is going to two months now ND they are yet to release their contest.

I just hope that they come back alive.

I wrote in writing club once and ran away 😆 the Spanish translation wasn't easy at all especially with plenty words.

I had to do the translation for every three hundred words. That way, I didn't have any issues translating.

Yeah I know but sometimes it can be tiring.

Yeah. But the gain worth the stress.

Not all the time though.

You're right though. They recently have not been engaging on post there. When the community first come on, #appreciator was giving out quality upvotes but not anymore.

Oh well, it's one of those things I guess.
