Ladies and gentlemen, I feel bad for asking you for help, but I've got little choice. See, there's this new Jaguar I want to buy, but I don't want to sell mine. So I was thinking, if each one of you can throw some euros my way, you'll soon be able to tell your friends you bought someone a Jag. LOL.
Okay, let me get serious. I love blogging and writing, and despite my poor English, I'm not too bad at it. My issue is with Hive. With me being fairly new to this platform, my reputation score is still low at 37. That in turn prevents a user from doing proper blogging, as all of you know.
Last night I tried posting a good, motivational article, only to read ‘insufficient resources.’ Having to wait several days (62 hours!) after doing one article before being able to do another post is just ridiculous. Imagine how many new users give up and abandon Hive altogether.
I can do barely one or two comments in total, then my resource level had dropped too low to do a proper post. Is this a blogging platform with a social component, or not?
Some time before I got so upset about it, I wrote a nasty article critisizing Ecency. Ironically, it bumped up my reputation score from 34 to 36. I understand the principle of keeping spam posts off the platform, but that sword is also cutting good people that can and want to contribute real value to the site. Some articles are time-sensitive.
What I am humbly asking you is to like/upvote this short article. That's all. Let me get to the point where I too can contribute value to the Hive network. I really feel bad asking for this, as it feels so selfish, and I'm breaking a promise to myself to never ask anyone for help.
You don't have to help me buy a second Jaguar, I only want a vote from you. It will raise my reputation score so that I can blog freely without being restricted by ‘insufficient resources.’ This is the sole reason I am still blogging on other ‘traditional’ platforms like Blogspot, Medium, and WordPress.
I had to take my post of last night to SteemIt, while I wrote it for Ecency initially. I really cannot send a proper message to Mark Fuckerface of Facebook before I'm not fully on Hive yet.
I'm posting a photo of a classy girl with an old Jag to motivate you. ;)
So, come on, hit the upvote button below. I'll return the favor in the future.
