Well one of my real life friends, poolbuddy and also soccerdad finally did jump on the Steemblockchain!
@davolitius he is.
I do want to prove to him the power of belonging to a community and of interaction.
As you all know or don’t my average number of genuine comments per week is 200!!!!
This is how I did get many followers and friends! Or you could say that this way I have build my own community! I do want to show him, the power of this!
That’s why I will donate all SBD generate by this post to him!
So don’t let me down and show him the power of interaction!
I don’t think that I have ever asked anyone anything, besides interaction, here on the blockchain!
So for once for a good cause I will, give him a warm welcome and upvote this post full force!
I will own you one!
Keep the faith,
Peter

@davolitius trust Peter about the power of interaction on Steemit. I learned it from him and its worth it. You will be amazed to see how much you can talk around here with people you haven't met in your entire life from all over the world. That's some of the best parts of Steemit. Enjoy it!

Now, finally one of my real life friends signed up I do want to make it a little bit easier for him!

Yup, that’s how to build a strong and friendly community. Now we have something to giveaway as we grow. Doing the same thing like you ;) Steem on and keep it up.

We are just trying to do our best. People forget to support their own species. Red fishes are swimming up to minnows, dolphins or whales and just forget about the other minnows! Pity!
If all red fishes support each other also, it would be a lot easier for them to grow and it would be lots more fun!
Cheers,
Peter

I think some of the whales and dolphins are purely from their ingested fiat for Steem. Anyway, it is important for us to empower the community by consistently helping the ones just started :)
Steem on my friend.

I will, you too @kimzwarch!
The lower the burn rate it, the more niches will pop up on the blockchain. The more niches there are, the more people will feel at home and stay around.
We also, have a responsibility to educate new comers, so that they will not become the beggers, spammers and follow-you-follow-me Steemians!

What a great friend you are @fullcoverbetting. I'm supporting you! Welcome to @davolitius :) You will get the hang of things here and soon enough, you maybe "addicted" or rather it will become a part of life :) We have great people and community here, not forget to mention kindness and great information sharing! Hope you enjoy the starting of your journey! Just be yourself, everything will fall into place eventually :)

Thanks for the support @happycrazycon. It could be really dark in the first months of Steeming and I do want to show him to good way! I really wish that somebody would have done the same for me in my first weeks!
He just needs to interact with people with shared interests and then learn to understand to look further than the upvotes. Money should be for most of us, just a very nice side effect! It is about building relationships what keeps me here!
And like you wrote, it all start with being genuine!

But that will not happen soon :) Euhm I doubt that I will never reach that status, I even doubt if I ever will become a dolphin. But at least we can try to achieve it!

I think dolphin (5,000 SP ) is definitely do-able... especially with a community behind you. Yeah, whale's probably impossible at this point.

Lets do it step by step. My next milestone is becoming a minnow and for you it will be Dolphin.
We will see from there. As long as we enjoy it here, we have a chance!

Welcome to @davolitius, and good for you Peter to bring new people onboard Steemit!
Definitely, interaction and engagement is key here on Steemit, and when you do that, you discover a great community. Make posts and stimulate discussions with your posts-- ask people questions, even.

That's exact what I am trying to teach him. He was under the impressive that upvoting posts was enough but it isn't. Find people with common interests and interact with them! Don't focus on upvotes but on replies! And above all, be genuine!

Don't raise him up too high! On my first account my first 3 posts attracted nearly $3k - and then I was dropped from a massive height to earning $.01 again, haha

Really 3K?? Amazing. While I do want to support him, so that he does get rid of the steem delegation by the system. I just want to show him that engagement and interaction is utmost important. Without it, you don't make a chance or have to extremely lucky!
Just like all of us, he needs to learn to see the money part as a nice side effect!

@mancave, waaw, 3k, this is unbelievable. In this story, money is never the most important thing for me. The interaction is much more important to me. Thanks for your comment.

200 comments from less than 1k followers is really respectful. When you gain lot more followers( I am sure you will) than you will be in problem responding to all future comments :-) Welcome @davolitius :-)

Could be. Have lots of respect for the one like @tarazkp! Can’t figure out how he replies to all comments!
But I do write 200 comments per week, record is 350 🤔.
Would like to have week with more than 500!
I do expect that I won’t grow much farther!

Hi @daan
The Karmeliet indeed was mine! Greatest beer in the world.
If you want to know another Belgian check @ costanza blog also!
Also @simplymike is from Belgium!
Both from the same area, but I don’t know if they know!
I am from Limburg? You!
Will check tour blog!
Cheers,
Peter

Good choice, did a review on Karmeliet a while back! Have followed the people you've mentioned, a lot more Belgians here than I expected.
I'm from Leuven myself, just as @joythewanderer btw.

Will dig up your review. Easily drink 6 to 8 of them a week. Now I write it down, it sounds likely I do have an alcohol problem. But it is not!
Only did drink one bottle of wine this evening!
I am from Maasmechelen!
Guess there is beer enough in Leuven! To bad I did study in Hasselt and the states. My parents didn’t like it that I would go to Leuven!
Maybe we should set up a Belgian dicord channel. I know there is an all dutch channel but there won’t be much talks about the World Cup 😁

Peter

I keep on nagging that he has to sign up, so it would be stupid to leave him in the dark here.
It will give him a head start but he has to do the work! I can only guide him and ahow how a good Steemian acts!
