I have told to my family about these competitions and also when I have won. Now when I said that I have to wrap up the votes for this month's competition and was a bit burdened of it (yeah, a big task) my 14 years old daughter asked how many competitors there are. When I said about ten her eyes went wide and she said: "Ten? Are you serious? I thought this was a real competition. How many people are there in this community?" "You mean active members? About ten to twenty." She sighed and said: "I thought you belonged to a real community."

But it is not about the amount but about the quality. So much to learn these kids. The social media with followers that only counts corrupts them. If you don't have followers in hundreds of thousands you are nothing. And yet even one person is enough to change the world, one follower. And million followers can be without any effect on real life.
