At the time of this posting, I have 802 followers.
According to the Dead Followers app 330 of my followers are dead!!
330 DEAD FOLLOWERS!!
Good grief I had a lot of bot followers or something. Anyway, that leaves me with 472 "true" followers.
But, according to Steem Supply, my followers aren't as good as my non-followers who just upvote me.
100% of my supporters are upsteemers? @dragosroua to the white curtsy phone. What?
I mean, I know that @Shaka is a good mystery pal of mine and upvotes all my good articles. 👊🏻You're awesome!
And @americarabbit is always there to flick an upvote.
My list also contains a few people I follow and try to upvote as much as I can.
Of course, I've got dumbass bot @cheetah on there. Hey, @cheetah, what will you upvote this article with?
But, let's get back to the other 400 or so of you who seems to be sitting there an not giving my Halloween articles any love.
- Happy Samhain! Happy End of Summer! Happy Halloween!
- Double 'Extinction Level Event' Near Earth Objects for Halloween
I know there is a lot of stuff to sort through on STEEMit and then site issues have kept many of you away. But, the site issues look to be 95% fixed, so upvoting is going well again. And, since you follow me, then you should be seeing my posts in your feed.
Now, I don't like begging for votes, because that's not right, but it would be something to see a lot more than 10 votes on my articles when I have 400+ followers. Heck! I just want 10 votes on one of my Halloween articles so that @steemitboard would give me a cool little badge.
Everybody wants a trophy!
Sure, I could probably cheat and get some bot to vote my article up, but I don't want to. @OriginalWorks was only called once, because that's a nice upvote to have. Unlike @cheetah.
Anyway, I felt like doing a little rant to see if I could wake up my follower base. Because, as I tell newbies, it isn't about the number of followers, it is about the quality of the followers.
Be a good follower.
We all should try harder. Me too. ;)
End of rant.
