Are you using the beta site with communities yet?

in communities •  5 years ago 

If not then you should go ahead and try it out, might be your last chance to say "I used it during the beta" as there's rumors that it might be going live next week which could be what @justinsunsteemit was referring to in the AMA.

If you want to know more what we at @ocd are doing with our community, check out this post in case you've missed it,it's going to remain pinned to our community for some time forward.

We are happy to announce that we've grown quite a lot so far into one of the biggest communities, the earlier you start your community the better! We're also offering users starting communities that align with our curation some curation starting help, so feel free to reach out to us on our Discord and we can talk more about your idea, its potential and how we can help.

Head over to the beta site and check out our community and the rules (and subscribe ;)), don't worry though, if you post something that doesn't belong there we won't be muting users instantly or downvoting but give you a warning or not curate your post which could give you a hint since we're currently checking and curating all posts posted onto our community, along with the Steem Gaming Community and SteemDevs. We're looking forward to adding more in the near future to our curation roster and of course we are also curating posts outside of our community which are added to the daily @ocd compilation posts which will also get pinned on the community page. Other than that we're also attempting to incentivize engagement by giving out the ENGAGE token which can be found on steem-engine, once you reach 1000 tokens you can start giving them out to other engaging users as well. Don't try to abuse this feature though as we have a blacklist option because we want this distribution to go as well and to as many deserving users as possible while we're planning on evolving the token in the near future with SMT's. :)


Join the other 913 active posters and the inflated rewards due to the price increase of Steem lately and post your original content in OCD and tell your friends about it. Sharing is caring! Talking about sharing another thing you can do is share your or another post you really like onto Twitter, add a link to the tweet under the post in a comment and we will be curating it higher than we would have initially! Doing so with a steempeak link would also be great considering they have guest accounts and Steemit may not need the extra traffic anymore considering Tron might start marketing it themselves. ;)

Let us know if you have any questions, right now we're mainly curating english posts but looking to add all languages we were previously curating back as soon as it's easier to filter them out in the community.

See you there!

Something I noticed about the steemit beta. Posts shared there does not reflect on one's blog on the steemit alpha web version.

Yeah, this is a good thing imo, if you want to post about something that fits certain communities you're not bound to have those posts appear on your personal blog, if you really want you can resteem them or check the next filter that's called "posts".

It's a bit weird having to Resteem yourself but seems to work alright :)

there will be an option to chose do you want to post it on a profile too. think steempeak mention it somewhere.

Better than 100 random korean posts daily.

Noted. However, I still think it would be nice if it reflected automatically.

Yeah it was weird that he said it was going live next week - when he keeps having to delete his tweets for the wrong information :D

I have been posting using the tag and also from Steempeak, not so much directly through the Beta lately.

You gotta admit though Steem is one hell of a rabbit hole for any newcomer, hopefully he learns to be sure of what he has bought before he decides to play the social game further on Twitter.

ACCURATE. I think back to when i joined and how ignorant i was. So many dapps and games now to get involved with

A rabbit hole filled with quite a few snakes and foxes :D

Might be fun to see where it all leads, or a disaster.

Same here, been using Steempeak and browsing tribes through the hives. I'm loving it. The ENGAGE is great too. I'm thoroughly enjoying rewarding people who I see constantly engaging with thoughtful comments, as well as some comment curation too. Awesome stuff!

!ENGAGE 25

The Engage is fun and I think it does add value to someone who receives it. Thanks :)

My pleasure man, yeah it's definitely fun. I'm not sure what is more fun, receiving them or distributing them. 😃



@tarazkp you have received 25 ENGAGE from @futuremind!
View and trade the tokens on Steem Engine.

Just a heads up @acidyo in case you missed it. There is a Steempeak beta site as well. :) https://steempeak.com/hive-175001/@steempeak/steempeak-beta

Much prefer steempeak beta 😉

Cheers, didnt even know the site existed, what rock have I been living under? Heading over to check it out now...

The increase of users who register and post on the platform will increase more and more. At some point it will be difficult to take care of all the posts. Will there be help from other whales or will you inevitably use a lower power vote? Congratulations on the excellent work you do. In this way you encourage people to write more and better

Sometimes. I hate not seeing my own content on my blog over there. Looks like a ghost town.

Good stuff @acidyo,

The OCD team always raises the bar for the community. I think the ENGAGE token is definitely one of the most useful tokens currently for rewarding engagement.

I use Steempeak for browsing the tribe, probably because I'm just so used to it and it's the best browser frontend there is currently, imo.

Keep up the great work!

Really good thing that you will curate also other languages! SteemiTron ON!😁✌️

SteemiTron ON!

Too soon, lol.

Facepalm!

Hell yeah! I'm also trying out the beta version of SteemPeak which is utilizing the communities aswell.
So far I've posted in the OCD hive and the Steem Gaming Community hive but I'm always on the look for other interesting hives that might trigger my content creation (in a good way).

I had a look when it came out but dont really have the time to get to involved at the moment 😣

Just started using them—too early to draw any conclusions, but I like it so far!

Every day, I'm trying to post via OCD Community. I'm glad this beta site really cool! Booster revenue payout.
Thanks a lot @acidyo

Not yet.

While looking through my Communities feed on beta steemit, I discovered that I'm some communities I saw "GUEST" even when I have subscribed, what could be happening?

Besides, does posting to a community accrue the community any benefit?

Posted using Partiko Android

No benefit right now other than activity as in the screenshots above. There are some ranks that can be given out to subscribers but we haven't started using them yet.

Thank you. Another question I'll gladly ask is does editing the post in another steem interface affect community curation?

Really? I tried it a few times but haven't got to fall in love with it.
