Hi Steemit! Nice to meet you.... (introduction post)

in #introduceyourself7 years ago

Hi Steemit! This is my introduction post. At the time that I'm writing this, I'm not yet approved. I applied late last year and never heard back after the email confirmation. Just applied again and a helpful chap in the steemit #help chat says he's trying to sort it out for me. Whiskers crossed!!

UPDATE: Shoutout to @steemforyou for helping me get my account approved!!

There's a lot I dont know if I'll ever understand about Steemit or cryptocurrency in general, but I hope to pick up enough along the way to be able to function on this site. I have plenty of original content to share, so for me, content isn't the hard part.

I'm a Youtuber, tubing since 2009 and a Modelsteemit.jpg

I started off uploading my UFO hunting videos in '09 and have evolved to mostly alternative news posts, but still fancy a good UFO video.

My most recent noteworthy upload is about Seth Rich, uploaded a week ago and has 108k views:

Quick shoutout: I was referred to this site by a fellow Youtuber Titus Frost, thanks Titus!

I was an army brat - born in Georgia, lived in Germany for 3 years, then Indiana, Texas, and Arizona where I spent the majority of my childhood growing up in a little mountain town near the Mexico border called Sierra Vista, in southeast AZ.

Now I live in Los Angeles and much prefer it here, though I want to revisit Arizona since it's paranormally saturated and I didn't quite appreciate that to its full extent when I was growing up there.

For fun I like: metal detecting, gold panning, singing, UFO hunting, ghost hunting, hiking (cliche I know), exploring cool or creepy places, flipping, thrifting, coin roll hunting, rock hunting, anything involving the beach. Kitties.

Skeptical paranormal enthusiast. I guess that sums me up.

I'll be expanding upon all of this in later posts, but for now it's great to FINALLY get into this community and I look forward to exploring everybody's posts!! MEOW

P.S. I have no idea what to choose where it says Rewards but 100% sounds better than 50/50 amirite? Let me know what's the deal with that!

Sort:  

Welcome! Wish you the best on this plattform! Steem on!

Welcome! 100% power up is for Steem Power, which you can think of as 'influence' or 'engagement power.' 50/50 splits rewards between Steem Power and STEEM tokens that can be traded on exchanges for $. Here's a nice overview from @kevinwong for why accumulating more Steem Power may be preferrable to some people: https://steemit.com/steem/@kevinwong/why-should-you-consider-accumulating-steem-power

Good luck and have fun! ;)

WELCOME! sounds like you will fly on here. Look forward to seeing what you get up to! Def Following! Cheers @ecoknowme

thanks man

@krishtina there are advantages and disadvantages to adjusting your % in the long run, you might want to think of it as an investment in your influence on here and into the platform and the cryptocurrency that comes with it. I am a total nube too, but I recommend doing your own research my friend @eco-alex got me into @jerrybanfield who is like a demi-god on here and seems to have some of the best content for getting your head around what is on here and what you can actually do so far. He is offering a course too, but I don't know if it is still free, :/ Follow your nose, and some people on here who know better than me. Good luck! Though my intuition tells me you won't need much!
