RE: Growing a Community: It's All About ENGAGEMENT and CONNECTING!
Hey you are two thirds of the way there :D Might be tough to reach 500 by the end of March but lets see how far you get.
The dog doesn't like to look at the cat? My mum's is like that - the dog will face ahead and try to peak by turning its eyes :)
Probably not going to happen @abh12345, unless I suddenly have a couple of posts go semi-viral... which seems unlikely, although I do have a couple of "Occasional Orcas" who periodically toss a substantial vote my way.
I'm just happy to be part of — and possibly help with — the overall effort. I remember a long time ago reading a cool post by @lukestokes on the general idea of "selfish giving:" When we help others succeed, we build a healthy community, and when there's a healthy community WE ultimately are the beneficiaries... so we're helping ourselves.

Good luck on the semi-viral posts anytime soon :)
Yes I remember that post and think I wrote a post off the back of it as it gave me new insight into how I think/try to do things here. Sadly not everyone is pulling on the same side of the rope, and some of them happen to be rather large also :)
Occasionally, I come across a few posts that make me pause and consider what we are doing here, and they leave an impression that makes me keep thinking for a long time.
Recently, it was @hashcash's Do we want to kill Steem? that got my attention; particularly the reality that we can only keep treating this place as a "cash dispenser" for so long before it simply becomes worthless...
