#ORIENTATION - A GUIDE FOR STEEM BEGINNERS - DOS AND DONTS

in #dtube8 years ago


Hey Steemians! Hey Dtubers!

I realized that if you are a newcomer to the Steem universe, there are many many questions that might be difficult to find the answers to.

That is why I have decided to periodically do an orientation video - to explain how Steem works, the different ways to be a productive Steemian, and general etiquette - basically all the things it took me months to learn when I first got here.

I will be doing this sort of video regularly with updates and trying to explain as best as I can in one video all the frequently asked questions and not so frequently asked questions. If you know of some newbies, or people that haven't figured it all out yet, send them on over - it's a win-win!
If you liked this video, be sure to subscribe/follow for more tips, and also leave a comment below.

For any questions you might have, please contact me on the Dtube Discord server. https://discord.gg/dtube

I recommend watching this video if you are new on steemit. I'm on steemit I think for 1 or 2 weeks and just now fully understand how the community is working and how you are supposed to help build it. And believe me, being a part of the revolutionary change is a good feeling, that is if you believe in steem and the possibilities. Thank you @Maneki-neko for posting this video ;) I hope many will see it and build this community the right way :)

Great comment, thank you!

This video has been of great help to me and I just joined steemit a few minutes ago. Keep doing what you're doing.

This was unbelievably helpful. Sharing with my friend who also just joined steem!

This was a great video. Thanks so much for popping by my intro post and sharing it. You have a calm voice and it was easy to listen to your video, explaining some of the many things new steemians (is that the term?) need to learn. All the best to you!

This is a good video for all people who are really starting on steemit or DTube from zero. I really hope that the biggest part of the community is playing fair and respecting the rules. At last respecting each other is one of the most important things when living and working with other people. Thank you that you took the time for us newbies :)

Haha Well - hope is good! Thanks for watching!

Great advice but once you get to know a bit about someone it's different. I think it's ok to alert a musician to someone hosting an open mike for example. My max voting payout is 0.02 and it goes down to 0.01 by the time I hit 60% voting power. Yes the Whales are attractive for their vote payout, but that also means that as a Whale you quickly get surrounded by a certain type of people.

Absolutely correct.
Yeah this video is for Day/Week One Steemians. I think many things become apparent after a certain time frame. Really, its difficult to even compose a video like this and I will have different versions of this vid in the future, because there are SO many little aspects to Steem. However I figure with all the people now joining up, this would be a good way to increase the value of content and comments on the platform.
Thanks for watching and commenting as always, @onnovocks !

I've been watching account count for a bit, and it moved by +/-25,000 new accounts in about 2 days, making your video very relevant. I hope it gets that many views! Greetings!

Hey man, just wanted to thank you on two fronts.....First of all, this video is a must watch for anyone new to dtube and steemit. This is a big big opportunity and so much potential for everyone. However, there will be a lot of people like me coming on...That have trouble turning on our computers at days lol So break downs and making Steem simple like this is VERY much appreciated.

Second, I also wanna thank you for the comments you made on my first video on dTube. I appreciated that gave me a huge boost on confidence on the platform. I'll be sure to pay it forward for new members I meet too.

Awesome stuff man, thanks again!

Thanks for the kind words! BTW - HODLing IS sexy! :)

ha ha ha ha ha Yeah man, learning that! And it's easier to do too.
