Unfortunately, steemit.com won't let me see your reply, but I can see it on steemd:

Did you took the time to actually research how I interacted with people when I welcomed them? Apparently NO, because I did just this: ask some questions, find common ground, etc.

Yes, I did take the time. I looked through your comments section before I left my comment. I saw image after image. I did not see actual relationship building. I'm glad you asked some questions and found common ground at least some of the time which I missed. Most of what I saw, as I said, were images.

My advice: create a new account and try a different approach.
