RE: So You Want A Spot On My ~100,000 Steem Powered Voting Bot @ 100%? Post Proof The You Brought Someone New To Steemit!!!

in #steem7 years ago

just got another friend of mine to sign up a few days ago @jricco - he's now a jet pilot, so I'm hoping to see him post some great photos and travel tales. His "past life" made for some pretty crazy times too (he's the guitarist)...

And just today, even my parents were asking me again to help them sign up!

Did learn one thing though. If anyone has trouble with the SMS verification process, SteemIt Inc should be able to help if you contact them:

It is not letting me create an account with my phone number. What should I do?
Ask for help in the #help channel on steemit.chat.

These guides are also very helpful in explaining how steemit works, the tools and ecosystem available, etc...

Killer contributions! Can't wait to see some posts from the jet pilot dude, that was always my dream job as a kid! Keep up the great work, you're helping!!!

That's cool! What's important is to get folks like that to realize how much more freedom they have here, hoe much more they can make here, and how important it is to bring users here. The more people we have here, the more prosperous this platform becomes. It's containerized anarchy, it's absolutely beautiful. The more people that join and use Steemit, the more valuable the shares become as well. It's a win/win all around. Such an absolutely ingenious platform.

From my introduction post, which is more or less how I explain steemit to people:

And remember this was back in 2011. We've been searching for the ideal next generation "censorship-resistant" platform ever since. In the past year alone, the censorship and banning of "dissenting opinions" is worse than ever not just on YouTube, but across all major social media. And even reaching your own subscribers has become more difficult than ever. Which, of course, gives steemit an even greater opportunity to really hit it out of the park.

steemit (especially with upcoming busy.org), while still constantly improving, excited me as the first alternative to address censorship and monetization in an entirely new and unique way that may finally be able to compete with these entrenched far-left-leaning centralized mainstream behemoths. It even inspired me to once again test the waters, do a bit of posting, and dip my toes back in the game.

And from a post I wrote after Martin Shkreli's twitter ban:

However disgraceful this banning and censorship may seem, it again points to the impending demise of fully centralized social media platforms, and the importance of migrating over to new censorship-resistant models such as steemit. And with the opportunity to be rewarded for the privilege of doing what many are already doing for free on other platforms, is all the more icing on the cake.

For others who see the writing on the wall, consider sharing this and other incentivizing steemit articles with your friends across social media as one more reason to "make the leap". Once more people realize there's really no downside, and worst case they may still end up with a few extra bucks in their pockets to boot, a critical mass will be reached and they'll start flocking over in droves.
