Family Time! (and reminder there is a Pow-Wow @ 10 p.m. CST tonight & tomorrow morning @ 10 a.m.)
What's That?
A little over a month ago, I sat down with one of our long standing members and high ranking officers. Her name is @sol25. She is the unspoken head of our Latino community and I value her insight. One of the things she expressed as a purge was taking place, is that some members don't get the same attention as others. Maybe it's because we don't visit them as often and there is a language barrier sometimes. So, after some brainstorming, we came up with the idea of 'Family Time'.
Ok, Explain That To Us
'Family Time' is a way to help increase engagement with those members of our family that may not be as active as others. We will select 10 people that are not as prolific in chats or that comment as much or even post as much as some of our more prominent members. It is expected that all of you visit these profiles throughout the week, show them that we are a family, and 'nobody gets left behind'.
It Is Expected
Yes, that was in bold and italicized. Every person that is in #thealliance now made it through the last purge and is effectively supporting the family in one way or another. Whether they are on our voting trail or have delegated to @thealliance or donated funds or a combination of or all of the above - you all deserve and have earned the right to be here. I don't feel it's asking too much to visit a few profiles a day and show them a little extra love. That being said, here are ten of our allies that need some extra lovins this week:
- @azdary310591 - She was last active 4 days ago and hasn't made a post in a few weeks. She loves video games though! Maybe she needs a hug...
- @baby07 - She is very real and a sweetheart posting on multiple things that interest her. Only 6 comments on her last 4 blog posts, however, 5 of those were family.
- @bengy - A little newer to the fam he digs music and video games. Of his last for posts, there have been 17 comments, none from any of us.
- @bluemist - One of the more sparingly consistent bloggers that posts on wisdom and inspiration. Every week or two you can find a fabulous post from them. Highly recommended to read even old posts.
- @captainklaus - He is a great photographer, though doesn't post very often. His last picture warranted 6 comments - 2 were his own replies and none were from fam.
- @cejero021 - He is an outstanding poet from the Philippines. Let's not let something like a language barrier stand between us. 2 comments on his last post, none were human.
- @christianyocte - Wonderful artist and blogger also from the Pines. 22 comments the last 3 posts, none were family.
- @coachjj - She is just that, a coach and personal fitness trainer. She doesn't post often, but only had 3 comments on her last blog that family members were part of a challenge.
- @crazybgadventure - Recently had the help of Steempeeps to raise enough money for a new camera for their work. 2 comments the last 2 posts, but both fam.
- @cre47iv3 - Extremely good blog 'creator', they often post about politics. Only 2 comments on their last 4 posts, none from us.
One Big Happy
Excellent response to last week's post everyone. You've also heard this before and I can't stress it enough, "...do remember that it is the engagement that makes us great and thrive as a community. Want to know who your family members are? This profile follows **ONLY** our members and their support accounts." That has been touted for quite some time and will always remain true. Have a good weekend fam, and see you at the pow-wow?

slammed real life BUT, leaving this in my tabs on fam members posts......nowadays we all could use a little more of a boost with all the crashes and hackings ;)
I think morale in general needs a boost, yes. ;) Every time this family shows up, it makes me smile. 💖
I see how the alliance continues to help family members grow. I can't believe how much we have grown as well. I have been gone for some time and I haven't had the time to visit family members' posts but I hope I get the hand of Steemit once more. It's good to be back and I hope to have the chance to get to know new members as well
Good to see you! Where have you been?

Hi! This is jlk.news intelligent bot. I just upvoted your post based on my criteria for quality. Keep on writing nice posts on Steemit and follow me @jlkreiss to get premium world news updates round the clock! 🦄🦄🦄
5/10 of those people have nothing I can vote on because they have not posted in a while, the rest got my vote. I will keep an eye on them in the future.
Been a slow week for many people.
They have enlisted the help of the @alliedforces!
We gladly answer your call!
(@alliedforces is a collaboration of witnesses @jatinhota & @enginewitty)
Have you supported your favorite witnesses?
There are many, this is a good selection and highlighting accounts each week like this will help a great deal to push some further forward.
I still feel people need to do more themselves though - it's harder to be forgotten if you are always visible, taking the time to be seen more around discords and on others posts makes a big difference to raising your own visibility.
I have noticed a recent downturn in general on comments though, I think with the summer upon us more people are enjoying the outdoors - where in winter you tend to be holed up inside with not much else to do.
