As I start to write this, it’s 9.45pm, I’ve only just eaten dinner and I feel a bit shattered. I wasn’t going to post tonight, but I felt compelled to put together a new pic to go at the bottom of my post signature before making dinner. And now I feel compelled to post it. Sometimes you can’t deny the muse.

Established Steemians have been getting frustrated by things like begging for follows or upvotes, spam comments, people who comment without upvoting or reading the post, the general lack of upvoting from people who ARE reading the post. Sometime we just ignore it, sometimes we try to be helpful and sometimes we’re guilty of being a bit snappy.
New Steemians are frustrated by being dropped into an alien environment with such a lot to learn. They don’t know how to behave or what to do. How do you make friends, gain followers, make contacts?
So I’ve put together this pic with a few simple tips, that I’m intending to put at the bottom of all my posts. It’s not intended to be all encompassing. There are lots of other great posts around for that. It’s just a few basic starters that can be easily seen by anyone who visits one of my posts.

What do you think?
Established Steemians – does this cover the basic etiquette?
Newbies – would this have been helpful if you’d seen it in your first few days?
EDIT - here is a new version, updated and bigger. Feel free to use it yourselves.
Thanks for reading and please let me know your thoughts
