I completely agree, although IMO people are not newcomers anymore should get the same kind of support. And somehow I feel this is something we’re not really doing enough about to make that happen. Yes, once you reach rep level 50, you normally have the basics down. But there is so much more to SteemIt than just the basics.
One day, I’ll find a solution to keep supporting those people who grew too big to get to receive that extensive newcomer support, and are expected to make it on their own once they have a reputation between 50 and 60.
If I’m really honest, I do feel a little lost sometimes. Of course, I’ve had a chance to build an amazing network of friends, and we support each other as much as we can. But sometimes I really miss that long line of newbie-supporting initiatives that were all eager to teach me the ropes around here. Because although I have a rep of 57, there are plenty of times I could really use such a huge backup.
But I’m trying to figure something out to make sure that people who leave official newbie-hood will not be ‘abandonned’ and have no other choice than to get by on their own.
It might take some more time, but I’m trying to bring back a little balance :0)
