I think you got the big thing about hive in general, it's more of a family, the earlier we begin to see it that way, the better for our growth. A lot of people come to hive with the mentality of Facebook and WhatsApp, sorry I am being precise, they write post dump and go, they don't care to check on others and even worst, respond to comments on their posts, how would they grow? On hive, If you stand alone, just be rest assured that you are going nowhere, your relationship with people determines your growth. That's a big lesson you learned sir.

No one is above mistake,the most important thing is learning from that mistake, which you obviously did.
