But anyway, the reply hack I have for you today, and this excludes your post that you make. So if you make an original Swell, that's different. But if you are responding to someone else's original Swell and you see they have a lot of replies, don't listen to them, just respond to the original Swell. And if you're really feeling antsy or lucky, don't even listen to the original post, just read the question
I've got some feelings about the idea of someone not even listening and daring to answer. Because on the one hand, that's fine that they don't want to listen, but to engage without having listened then what's the expectation that while you won't invest time not you specifically, but whoever it is that they won't invest time to listen to whatever it is that I might have to say. Then expect that I will invest in them by giving them a reply back. Right?

But as far as the person who I suspected, I'm not really sure if they were I mean, they sort of did admit that they weren't really listening to me, but it was just I was a part of their morning routine, which was weird. Like, oh, so you're like turning Swell into, like, Facebook

We don't know anybody. So if I'm here for entertainment, I'm going to seek out entertainment, I'm here for information, I'm going to find that, et cetera. So are people here to kind of build up followers for whatever reason? Because like I said before, ain't nobody seemed to be selling anything here. So what would be the point in having a lot of followers if I don't see folks really using this for promotion?
Oh my goodness. Listening to you reminded me of something else that drives me nuts. This is not done very commonly. I have seen one person do it regularly. Only one or other two people do it occasionally. But anyway, it's when in one case you can give the benefit for the doubt, in the other case you cannot. It's when someone goes through and likes a bunch of swells and replies that you've made and you catch those notifications within the first hour

This on ange, thank you for stopping by with the swell tips and okay, so I real I forgot element. I also would do pictures. I would have unique pictures to where I figured out the person wasn't paying attention to the pictures either. So I would talk about something while the picture was showing something else. It was fun for me, but it probably wasn't fun for other people listening

And you're sending me every single invite to every single post that you make, I just block. It's very simple. So it's actually made it easier. Okay, you mentioned the, like, thing, the spamming. Yeah, there was a person that tried to do that with me. Probably was the same person that did it with you, but I make so much swells that I knew they wasn't going to get to
Anyway, just as bizarre to me not to say I've always been in this place with respect to my thinking on it because I used to chase the likes and Holloway as well, play stupid games but then I was just like, what am I doing and why? Anyway, the whole explaining thing, you know what, I have this internal battle on a regular basis and actually stumbled across an Instagram post today that really spoke to this
