1 Year on Steemit with a Delegation Celebration!steemCreated with Sketch.

in #steemit7 years ago

Wo0ot! I'm still here after one year! :)

I first heard about Steemit from Facebook last year. I think it was an anarchism related page or group that showed a post in my feed about the Dollar Vigilante getting $11,000 from a post or something, I forget exactly. I think I was reluctant at first, being skeptical, but checked it out and decided to sign up.

I posted a copy/paste of some of my larger and more complex work to test out the water, which in retrospect was an overload of info for someone's first post. Who was gong to read all that? Thankfully someone did, or at least I thought, but it was the cheetah bot lol. I got $0.00 despite a few minor votes. I should have posted something smaller, which I did after a week or so of posting those long articles.

I soon developed the Steemit bug. Rather than continue in the second CCENT course to get a job in Cisco routing and networking, I was now into Steemit trying to get the philosophical work I do out for more people to understand, and I could make some money here and there. I was putting out my work for free before, so Steemit rocks!

It's been 365 days since I registered. Thank you Steemit for creating this platform, and thank you fellow Steemians for being part of this platform!

It's been a wild ride. At times I've posted little, a lot, or not at all. I had my period of success in the past. I became a witness, and I also made a curation site (SteemKURE) but I didn't think it merited further development.

I have been absent from posting since last Friday as I have been learning more web development frameworks based in Javascript.

Since I am not posting or curating for now, I would like to offer some of my Steem Power to others through delegation. I will delegate 30,000 SP as I see fit. It could be 30,000 to one person, or 10,000 to 3 people, etc.

If you would like to have some extra power, let me know why you think you should have it. I'll consider those who don't use pay4vote services or self-vote with higher priority.

No guarantees, but who knows, maybe your interests and mine align and you will get some extra voting power for a bit ;)

Thank you and Steem on for more years to come!

Please consider supporting me as a Steem Witness by voting for me at the bottom of the Witness page; or just click on the upvote button if I am in the top 50

Sort:  

You can consider me as a candidate for delegation. Why? Only original content and live interaction... I don't use voting bots for easy curation and read posts before voting manually. I'm trying to support the minnows, voting for their good content and communicating with new interesting authors. I'm here not for the huge profit, I don't vote for the whales just because they are the whales and I can get more curation rewards from their posts. If this is your main reason for delegation, than sorry...

Awwww...I've been wondering where you've been lately! :( Sad face that you won't be back for a while! Congrats on your 1 year anniversary, you've sure SHONE. xoxo

If you felt like it, you could delegate some SP to me :) I never self upvote. And I wouldn't start either. I don't buy votes. I upvote quality content, usually posts which are bringing awareness and truth to Steemit about non-mainstream subjects.

Hope to see you back real soon! Take care, and happy learning.

I delegated you the 30k ;) Turned out to be a few decimals short of 30k though lol. Enjoy ;)

@krnel I am literally crying tears of happiness right now, I'm so touched you could never even understand my shock and joy...holy F**&!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No words!!!!!!!!!! I'm gonna be able to make so many people's days brighter because of YOU and your amazing kindness and generosity!!!!!!

Congratulations @lyndsaybows.
It seems like your delegation is in good hands haha
I hope you can spread some love and positivity with it and enjoy your break @krnel! :)

Just read this now @krnel.

You chose well by delegating to Lyndsay, she votes wisely, is very respectful and is very grateful that you placed your trust in her.

Look after yourself and I hope to see back soon.

Hi Mr. @krnel please upvote got me. I'm very tired trying to make every post but the results are not increased. I implore you Mr. @krnel to upvote each of my posts, my family is hungry please upvote every post me Mr @krnel 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Thanks :D I'll be back at some point lol :P

Good stuff, you better be! One of my favourite writers.

Congratulations on 1 year with Steemit. I wish you many more!

Why I Would Like Some of Your Offered SP Delegation

  • I have ceased my "pay4vote" usage. I have realized that no matter how bad I'm feeling about a post not receiving any views, I shouldn't use it. (see bottom of post for more details)
  • I will vote on as many Posts per day as makes sense (not draining my power by more than can be recovered in a day).
  • I will provide my votes to my fellow minnow followers, and those minnows who I feel post Original and Interesting Content.
  • I will scan the #introduceyourself page for at least 1 post per day to provide an upvote. The content must be interesting and the person must show interest in becoming part of the community.
  • I will upvote no more than 1 of my own posts per day (or I will adjust the percentage applied to the post to provide no more than my current $0.01 to $0.02 post reward).
  • I will credit @krnel for the added value of rewards that are being shared with my newfound upvote strength (and shamelessly promote voting for @krnel as a witness, because I like you and that's gotta count for something, right?) -- unless you don't want me to do that?
  • I try to add a relevant and/or supportive comment on all of the posts that I upvote.
  • If I have your delegated SP, I will add a comment to every upvoted post.

Thank you for your consideration!

Full Disclosure:

  1. I used "randowhale" approximately 4 times, only on Original Posts, never on Comments. (this is the only pay for vote service I have used)
  2. I promoted approximately 2 to 4 of my Original Posts, but never sent a memo or SBD to the "promoted" bot.
  3. I use the eSteem App every so often, which I guess could also be considered a promotion App. The primary reason I use this is because it's easier to use the eSteem App for Posting Content or Comments with Pictures from my phone than using a web browser.
  4. EDIT: I just realized I didn't have you as a witness on my list! I think I must have removed you from my votes when your node was down. I have remedied that oversight.

Thanks for the ongrats, and thanks for applying :)

Hey krnel, congrats on your 1 year anniversary!

Maybe something I wanted to elaborate on: My witness votes normally go to people that I feel like I can have a good conversation with. Being able to debate properly with manners and content is important.

Most people (including myself) will always defend their own argument and action before they might recap on the conversation and might come to the conclusion that the argument made against them was valid. You on the other hand instantly changed your post and said "I agree with your critizism", that somewhat shocked me, but it is actually very nice to see someone who not always tries to win the argument no matter the right or wrong. That is why you got my vote.

I have been pretty active on Steemit recently even though I don't post much, so if you still need someone to babysit that SP for you, I will try to wield your power with responsibility.

Thanks for the congrats and the kind words :) I do care for whats right/correct, so I'll adopt corrections for sure. But if someone doesn't make valid arguments, then there isn't a correction for me to adopt;) hehe. Thanks for applying :D

Happy Birthday my friend
Thanks a lot for what you have done for Steemit, this one old year baby.
You are one of the deep dedicated "fathers" that made this beta child with more awareness for equality and justice for all users feeding this wonderful baby.
You are an example to follow on beeing an ethical inhabitant of Cyberspace.
Keep on the good work. :)

Thanks bro :)

I think i dont deserve your sp as i have used payed bots to make my posts exposured, and i have done self upvotes... i will read why this is bad in steemit and propably i ll follow the right way! Anyway good luck with this great giveaway, i hope you will check my blog and you will understand that i am not a "hit and run" person but someone who joined steemit and from the first day i am trying to give the best of me;)
I hope you sp will go to right peoole! Have a nice day!

You did everything right when you joined 1 year ago, see, now you are a really reputed personality on Steemit. The number 4 in term of reputation. Respected I would say. ;)

I would love to have more SteemPower to search deeply for brilliant Steemit Artists and support them. But I used Self Voting system not long ago. (For me and others)
But from now I will stop to use them, I just read a post about that, and I don't think it's really clever to use this kind of system. I would even say it's useless and make myself feel and look bad. And I was wondering if I should Upvote my own post when I publish them or not? Maybe you get more visibility at the moment of posting, but again, it's a bit against steemit spirit. A bit egocentric. We have to share with others, not ourselves, that's the point of sharing. It seems so simple, but we, humans, are greedy sometimes. Haha.

Anyway, I know we have different interests, but I know they can align in a certain way. ;)

Cheers!

Yeah, some respect from some people, but not the whole platform lol. Many don't like me because I speak of things they don't know about or want to look at. Morality is not popular. Many people don't want to better themselves. It's mostly the new members that have more respect for me, as the old users didn't like me creating a fuss about flagging issues.

Thanks for the application :)

Congratulations man! I would love to receive 10k Steem Power!

I promise I won't upvote my own comments with delegated power!
I promise I will give around 40 upvotes daily with around 10-20 VP so more people will benefit!
I promise I will be active at least 8 hours a day!

I hope you will give the power to those who really deserve. If it's not me I am also happy, maybe others deserve/need it more!!!

Thanks :)

Sounds like you started slow but have built up your blog and now its time to celebrate One Year!

I've been here over a year, but haven't posted in probably a year. BUT I have been here Every Day, for 400+ days, and as my profile says, "Daily Manual Curator" is what I do. Some comments too, but my big thing is voting a lot every day.

I vote for Science posts, investing, Social matters, some friends, great writers and posts that I think a vote will help the author. Please consider me for a Delegation. Any further questions, please feel free to ask. THANKS!
