To succeed in anything, you must endure and be persistent. But at some point I know that one thing will lead to another and you feel like quiting . That's true, that's life, it do happen in other aspects of our lives , hive is not an exception.
‎
‎When I started hive it was cool. The at a point , infact one hot Sunday afternoon I login to my ecency account and the downvoting notification was much. I felt like shouting but I controlled myself. What was the problem I asked , they said it was an AI generated post. I laughed because I didn't use AI to generate any of my post, the mistakes I made was writing and then using AI to do some grammar and tenses check and but I feel it was too much and they had to be down voting. A particular account, down voted me to the extent that I began to feel if I did anything wrong personally to the account 🤣.
‎And when ones he down voted other account will join. It was so serious that the account took about 3 days or so to be targeting me 🤣🤣🤣🤣.
‎
‎We the very first day, after trying to explain and it didn't work out, at a point I was angry and frustrated. Felt like quiting hive. To me after all I had a life before even starting hive and I was still doing fine, I thought to myself. And on the other hand, I said no. I can't quit because of this. I now had to consult other admin via discord. And they were able to guide me through and even recommended grammarly.
‎
‎Well, I didn't quit , I am still here and still doing hive, although the effort has reduced a bit because of a lot of factors and some engagements. But I still ensure, I come here and do the little I can, at times I just read messages from people's blog. But i didn't quit.
