RE: Amended: Repost of "Friends of Gondor" Launch!
This is a very interesting concept! Thank you for this endeavor.
I would suggest, at least in the case of my own posts, that you set your vote to 15-25 minutes rather than the zero minutes as outlined above. This account should Garner curation rewards from these efforts, as I believe there will be good deeds to be done with it even after the battles are through.
I am sending 15 SBD to contribute to the SP lease effort for this program. Primarily as a way of saying thanks for your efforts, but also in way of apology for not adding my vote to the curation trail. I need to reserve my VP for my own curation efforts in the realm of new Steemians Retention, and have to be conservative when it comes to voting trails at the moment.
I'm looking forward to seeing the friends of Gondor doing good works around the platform! Thank you again for this effort!
Thank you very much for many things @mikepm74... First I'm happy that you like the concept because I'm hoping to spur others to help in the same way to help the #stewardsofgondor out while they have been so great to the community.
Second, as far as setting the curation time, I wanted to give you all the maximum value since the intention is to help "you"... Whatever builds in this account is somewhat small right now anyways and I wanted to help those hurt get the biggest bang possible. However, if people want to volunteer like you did to change the vote to 15 to 25 min, then of course I won't argue because you all know more than me what is best.
What I will do is keep it the same as I stated for now unless I hear from others sharing your sentiment. Of course I would like to treat you the same as everyone else, but will do as you wish. So if you want me to move it, just tell me and it will be done!
And finally, wow. That is an amazing thing to do. I'm very happy that you are doing that and it will definitely lease some decent SP. I don't know how long this battle will go on, so I'm going 4 weeks on the lease that I just put out. Are you ok with that time frame for me spending your 15 sbd?
Thank you very much for such an amazing way of showing support not only for me, but for your fellow stewards! It is fantastic...and ps...certainly no worries about the you can't trail, this will buy a decent upvote just on its own!
Thanks again and btw if you hear of anyone else supporting @fulltimegeek in this effort in a similar way, please let me know so that I can get the word about that too! We want to help in the ways we can :)
That is so nice of you @mikepm74 to support this initiative and also to help the account to earn curation rewards to put it further for upgrading the account.
Happy to see so much support for the good works of SOG's have done.
Hey @coolguy123, thanks for weighing in here too... I have taken Mike's suggestions (along with the other 3 and changed the autovote to 20 min) ... Thanks a gain for all the support my friend!
Thank you again for your generous donation! I have taken your advice (in conjunction with 3 other SOGs who agreed with you) and moved the autovote to 20 minutes (it seemed like the best solution).
Also you may see 2 additional upvotes on your posts and that is because from time to time the meter gets too close to 100. I have a pretty good handle on the number of posts everyone makes, but I don't want the meter to go to 100 and be unused.
Also I wanted to let you know the account is now up to 750 SP for the next 4 weeks.
Have a great day and thanks for the guidance as well as the generous donation!
