5 More Heroes You Can't Ignore! - Heroes Of Steem

Yesterday I wrote a post about the unsung heroes of Steem and there were a couple of people that I should have mentioned and didn't; time to put that right.
tuck-fheman
Seriously how could I forget the Tuckster? I'll tell you how, because I thought his earnings were higher and I was trying to concentrate on the lower earning Steemsters (we're Steemsters now). However Tuck has not got the earnings he deserves.
Maybe it's because of his acerbic wit, or perhaps because he doesn't shy away from controversy, but for whatever reason it is, he doesn't get the props that he deserves.
Tuck has been downvoted a lot, not because he is offensive, or because he spams, but because he's not afraid to speak his mind and for his love of jiggly boobs. Neither of those things are a crime, they are just not very politically correct in this environment.
However, if you want to be entertained, be made to laugh, challenged or you just want a good arguement, then Tuck's your man.
I would go as far as to say, that Tuck's blog is the most diverse on Steemit and should be duly recognised, whether you're a whale or a minnow, or anything in between, please go and engage with this quality blog.

pairmike
How could I forget Pairmike!?! This guy has some mad skillz when it comes to manipulating vinyll on a pair of 1210s. He does awesome video tutorials on how to be a scratch DJ. Mike is also heavily into the cryptoworld, he has had an impressive list of digital investments and so has a rounded view when it comes to digital currencies.
He likes to give his opinion in short bursts, his non-DJ posts, tend to between one and three paragraphs, but he packs a ton of information into them. His style is friendly, yet to the point, he doesn't tend to use too many words to describe what he wants; unlike some Steemsters I could mention (who me? :-) ).
Pairmike's blog is rich in content and diverse in subject, so please go and support Pairmike, I'm sure he will get more popular after the 4th, but for now, he needs our encouragement.
Blog Style: To the point - Observational - Tutorials
Why You Should Go There: To get cryptocurrency tips, to read observational updates and to learn to DJ.

bbqbear
How could I forget bbqbear?? I LOVE barbecues and whilst most people's quiet place is a beach or a bamboo forest or somesuch. The place I like to retreat to in my head, is building and cooking on, my fantasy barbecue. bbqbear also loves a good barbecue, as you'd expect with that name.
He blogs almost exclusively about barbecues, he does product reviews, but also loves to post, gratuitous, barbecue "porn". I watched a video just now and have now got a really strong urge to go out and find some Polish bratwurst.
A lot of bbq's posts are tongue-in-cheek, making his blog very entertaining and funny to read, I highly recommend stopping by and showing your support, even if you're not a barbecue fan. If you are and you haven't been there yet, then; what the hell are you waiting for?!

infovore
Infovore's blog is an intriguing one, he has posts on privacy and online security as well as ones about emotions and psychology, and lately he has decided to publish his book exclusively on Steemit. This is great and means that we will have lots of juicy, exclusive comment for our platform.
He has an introspective style, which causes his posts to be thought provoking, I enjoy reading his posts and have read a few of them more than once as I find you get more out of them that way. He elicits good comments and always seems to reply to them.
Blog Style: Introspective - Observational - Creative Writing
Why You Should Go There: To read thought provoking ideas and to get involved in, lively debates in the comment section. To get an exclusive look at his new for Steem, book.

chitty
I am going to finish with chitty and I know he would relate to why, because he's as addicted to Steem as I am, I'm supposed to be off doing something else, but just felt I had to post this. Chitty is the same, he loves Steemit and shows it by posting, insightful content, designed to elicit good debate from its readers.
Chitty maybe somewhat controversial, because he owns an auto-bot, but he uses it for good, it seeks out new content and votes it up. He is a firm believer in the system and would not do anything to harm it. This is shown by the fact that he has purchased Steem and so not only invests time, but money into Steemit.
He has a healthy, questioning, non-judgemental style and on top of that, has some really good ideas for where Steemit could go from here; I can't wait to read more of him.
Blog Style: Inquisitive - Observational - Steem Ideas - Art
Why You Should Go There: To add to the intelligent debates he starts and to read some of his steemit ideas.

OK, I really have to go and engage with life away from Steemit for a while now, I have so many more Steemster heroes I want to give props to, and I will. So for now, please go and check out these #heroesofsteem.
Take care and happy Steeming!
Thanks cryptogee!! I would return the favor here and say you have provided the funniest content I have seen on steemit: a tv show by cryptogee
Thanks Chitty! :-D

Like seriously, how could you forget @tuck-fheman ! I've had amazing conversations with him on steemit and he's really a nice, funny guy. ;) I'm glad to be on the same list with him. Lol @chitty the friendly bot. Thanks so much for this @cryptogee, I always love reading feedbacks from people. And if you think you're still addicted. You know the post to go back to ;)
Haha, I know, I know! I forgot Tuck because I got so deep into the other blogs I was researching and then by the time I got to the 8th person, it seemed like Steemit was under maintenance and it became really hard work searching people out. So I just thought 2 more and that's it.
Then I posted, saw a @tuck-fheman post and thought, oh man, I can't leave him out; like you say, I've had some great convos with him on here and enjoy pretty much everything he posts.

Undoubtedly there are persons who do that steemit is different, not only for the quality of his post, his originality, also for his nearness and the help that they give. Thankfully in steemit have many persons who do of this a special place.

Hey Thanks CryptoGee,
A nice mention like that is the best way to get a #BBQ hopping, good to see you finally grabbed a beer and checked it out!
I have created something you might find interesting, a Blog Landing Page Template that gives users a directory of your good blog posts, you can see it in action on my BBQBear Blog Landing Page.
Oh, and my highest rated post is actually Things to do before your big holiday BBQ.
Thanks again for the kind words,
BBQBear
Doh! I knew that, I meant to put the Pyro one as my fave and then I just forgot and got confused :-) I'll change that.
Right, so onto your template, fucking A man! Love it, funnily enough the Mrs was just looking over my shoulder as I looked at your landing page; she loves that top pic; we both do!!
Nice template buddy, I'm gonna use that :-)
Oh man, how do you do that? I can literally taste and smell the bangers and all that lovely beef, mmm :-D
CG
That would be great thanks!
Glad you like the template, I figured I should try to contribute something useful around here. heheheh Yes, that pic is straight out of my dreams too. It's definitely on the bucket list to recreate that scene in real life!
Have a good one,
BBQBear
