Hello, Hive! Introducing the ScrapandSalvage community

in Scrap and Salvage2 years ago (edited)

My name is Chris and I am the @wannabescrapper. When I came to Hive I was trying to find a community that I could post my scrapping videos to and was guided to @ecotrain. It was great. Not that there were a ton of other scrappers or anything, I couldn't find one, but there was a group of people that were trying to do their part to help the planet.

Then Alex left to pursue his life. Good for him, I say.

So I started struggling again. It was suggested by several people that I start my own community for scrappers and at the time I didn't even want to think about it but as I got thinking about what they were saying, it started to make sense.

I was looking at it like I needed to have a huge stake and a means to incentivize people to want to scrap and salvage things. I thought I had to have a dev that would automate things like curation but they were saying "Just start the community and post to it."

That felt kind of lonely but I kept thinking about it and figured I might as well. There might be someone like me that gets here and figures there are no communities so they don't bother doing anything and just move on to Reddit or wherever. That's worse than feeling lonely, IMO.


So here we are. I will use this account to build and reward the members who post to the @hive-172022 community about scrap, salvage, etc. Because I don't have much stake yet, I will be using ecency points to try and boost the quality posts that come in.

I personally like videos and step by step photo posts but I also like creativity so you do you. Everything will be manually curated by me until we have more interest and members that want to get more involved. I'm hoping that @steemmatt will join because he does amazing things with the "trash" around him. Go check out his posts for some inspiration. I'm sure there are others as well but we need to find them first.

So there you go. If you want to learn more about scrapping and how you can help the enviroment while putting a few bucks, pounds, or pesos in your pocket, leave a comment. Even if you just know someone who is into it but not on Hive you could show them some posts from the community and maybe they would see that they can hang with likeminded people and earn a bit of crypto for their time. Make sure you emphasize the "bit of crypto" part. We don't want people shooting up the place when they don't get rich in a week.

Take care, my scrappy friends and remember, it's all weight in the bucket.

Nice, I think just getting going is good, you can incrementally improve as you go. 3speak is also gonna have communities etc etc so as things grow you can build a whole connected network. !PIZZA

Yeah you are one of the ones I was talking about. It just makes sense. I sometimes get too involved with the thought process and don't look at the simplified possibilities.

Ola @scrapandsalvage, Welcome to Hive!

Excellent introduction.

Here you will find a very healthy network.
Where you have freedom of speech and receive a lot of support for your effortin creating content.

Where you scrap? My family is good at scrapping as well.

I'm in Northern British Columbia, Canada and that's awesome that they are scrappers.

I am learning to forge a round and bar soon as I get mats for molding sand.

Welcome to Hive. Take a look at this guide:
https://www.proofofbrain.blog/hive-150329/@leprechaun/the-absolute-beginner-s-guide-to-proof-of-brain. It's a about how to use the Proof of Brain interfaces for brand new users. Much of it applies to Hive at large.

Jesus I can't believe you spent the three hive to make a community you mad bastard. That's a pound of copper right there.

Now who's mad? A pound of copper is like 7 hive.

Nice pair of toes in the photo there man. hahah.

Hi man, you look so happy and also look so kind. I also want you to know Im new here too, so in case you need something or want to ask something please I always open to help. 24/7 just go hit on me in case you got confused or anything, so many people will come to you saying almost the same thing especially when you still new, but soon as a week has passed you will understand why.

so please you can check my post as an example or maybe an inspiration too. follow me for more info, I promise I will keep my followers in touch.

dont forget to mention me to your next post

thankyou ,

Thanks but forgive me if I'm a bit skeptical about your intentions. It seems like you are just combing the #introduceyourself tag and putting a stock message up for everyone asking them to follow you and mention you in their next post. If you had actually read my post, you would have seen that I am not entirely new here but created this account to run the community I just created.

I do like how all the girls, you call them beautiful but the guys you change to cool, happy, talented. How does someone look talented? That's something I'd love to know for when I am hiring.

Anyhow, good luck with your life here on Hive and do yourself a favour. Start meaningful conversations and actually get to know people. It will get you much further than trying to mass produce friends.

Cheers!
