Hello @unicrisx8! This is @traciyork from the @ocd (Original Content Decentralized) curation team. We noticed you shared your first post here on Hive and doxxed introduced yourself to the community - congratulations and welcome! 😂
(While you're busy doxxing yourself, if you happened to tweet out something about Hive, like you just joined, or sharing a link to this post, or something along those lines, I can get your profile verified so that curators won't be wondering if your NFT artwork is really your own. And I promise that when I follow you on my personal and HiveBlogShare accounts that I won't immediately unfollow you...lol)
Speaking of community, we have many different ones here on the blockchain, devoted to all kinds of interests. Here's a link so you can check them all out - Hive Communities. Looks like you've already subbed to most of the ones I would've recommended, but you might find these interesting as well -
Also, as Hive can sometimes be quite confusing, the newly launched Newbies Guide should be helpful to you, as it is a growing repository of useful and easy to understand posts about how the Hive ecosystem works. For instance, there's a post in the collection called 3 things Newbies should do in their first week on Hive that you might find helpful.
Please be aware that Hive is a bit different from other social media platforms since you are monetizing your blog, so it is important not to include content that you don't own without sources (and it shouldn't exceed 50% of the post). For more information, check this post - Why and How People Abuse and Plagiarise by hivewatchers.
I'm sure @solymi will continue to help you as you begin your Hive journey, but if you have any questions, feel free to hop into the OCD Discord server and we'll do our best to answer them, and again welcome to Hive!
hey @traciyork from OCD 😊
thank you very much for all the information. Been away for the weekend so I am just getting back to it. Yeah I already joined a few communities but will look into the other ones you shared as well.
And thank you for the Newbie Guide. This will definitely be helpful and I will look into it as soon as I can.
I am not planning to share content from others unless its for a specific purpose. But thanks for reminding me about that as well 🙏 will make sure to follow the rules in here
I will share this post on twitter today and maybe some of my other friends will also get interested to take a look into HIVE
Thx for the warm welcome and looking forward to creating a little bit of art for HIVE. Already got something in mind 😊
You're very welcome, @unicrisx8! And apologies for the delay - I had your Twitter open in a new tab, so I could submit the verification after you tweeted, then I saw a butterfly... next thing I knew, it was two weeks later! 😂
At any rate, I'm now following you on both my Twitter accounts & you should see a reply from Hive Watchers soonish about being verified. Nice work with the NFT Bees too! 🐝 💛
haha...no worries at all. sometimes life just leads us in a different direction 😄 thx for the follow 🙏
