Newbies! Welcome To Steemit. 💖 Look What You've Become!
The day you joined Steemit, you took on all sorts of new roles in life. The ball is in your court now..
The Steemit paradigm is very unique. The day you joined Steemit, you entered a symbiotic relationship with Steemit and other Steemians. You can imagine Steemit as a huge undulating, online magazine, which you have a stake in. How you approach Steemit is entirely your choice, but in other ways, you are all of the following five things:
An Investor
Whether you've bought STEEM, created content, or both, it's in your interest that Steemit succeeds. The more successful Steemit becomes, the higher the value of STEEM, the higher rewards for you, and the higher value of your account.
A Speculator
If STEEM went to five cent tomorrow, it would probably be wise to buy a ton of it. Likewise, if the value of STEEM went to 1000 dollars, you might want to power down some of that stash. The more important figure is the point in the middle where you decide whether you should buy STEEM, do nothing, or power down.
An Editor
Every time you vote, or flag, you're having your say about what content deserves more attention, or less as the case may be.
A Content Creator / Blogger
Even if all you've posted was an intro, you've created content and had an effect on the value of Steemit/STEEM. You also stand a chance of earning rewards. Clearly the rewards are potentially huge, so lots of great content is constantly being added.
An Advertiser
While not strictly necessary, Steemit gives you the opportunity to purchase the attention of others, via the "promoted" section. Some users are already using this feature to great effect, buying extra attention, and in turn, followers and rewards.
So we all have power and responsibility. Remember, we're all in this together. Let's create the good stuff. Let's reward the good stuff, and don't let low value spam or copypasta gain a foothold. Stay strong, and STEEM ON!

Wise words @condra
I've been here two weeks and it's changed everything for me.
Once I started writing I couldn't stop. It does feel like I'm part of something huge that is still in its infancy. Hopefully it will be the next level of social media where the vapid, mean and spiteful won't inhabit. I'd love Steemit to become a place where people from all walks of life from all over the world come to learn, teach and share the best of what life has to offer.
I love your vision and I hope you're right. But we have to keep up the fight. Creating good content, and fighting spam too.
It's worth fighting for.
hahah i love all your posts!!! always we fit into one of these categories :D hehe
And always shit post. Should you be so lucky as to have King Kryptik post something in your newsfeed, like and resteem immediately as a tribute because you all are merely peasants in his omnipotent presence. He is the living god.
You forgot that part. I got you covered.
IS IT REALLY YOU?!
....after all I'm just a sheeple debt-slave, King Kryptik! 😬😜 Have a wonderful day! Aloha ya'll!
