I'm giving away the lions share of my SP for Xmas
What a great year for Steemit! I've only been on here a couple of months, but I've had such a ball, met some great people (you know who you are:)) joined a club (go TeamAustralia!) and shared in peoples posts and lives.
For those who don't know me I am the creator of the Interactive Fantasy story puzzle on Steemit and also the producer of the regular Lord Nigel'sTravels - Animals series (hence the up close lion picture). All my creative content uses original photos and has been either written, created or invented by myself or my closest friends and used with their full permission(the way it should be on Steemit).
Unfortunately due to sick family members and other holiday duties, I must break shortly for Xmas. i.e. I have made a decision to soon cease all posts until after Xmas.
I was recently informed and inspired by the post Upvote Bots and the Future and have decided our curators friends do such a great job they need a Xmas treat
So instead of delegating my SP to a bot (and making profit on uncertain posts - Great for me short term!, but possibly contributing to damaging Steemit and thus ultimately bad for me) I am going to delegate it to my favorite curators. I really think if all minnows did this, as a way of giving something back for xmas, it would add up and make the work these curators/human bots do even more sweet.
These guys are constantly searching for and supporting new comers (just needing a little hand or simple motivation sometimes) and they leave a comment that brightens your day. If everyone gave their SP to these groups instead of thinking short-term, it would help raise the price of Steem, as they fight continuously to make the platform good and fair for all.
I have only just begun my Steemit discovery, having posted a small fraction of what I have to offer. I will continue to learn and improve and post as much as I can and try to post until the end of the week. There will be a delay and then I'll be back with plenty more to share for those interested.
Please if you are following me, don't stop! I'm only going for a couple of weeks and I'll be back continuing my story and posts. I'll grab my delegated SP back and start voting for great content myself again then (but will sleep easy knowing my vote isn't being wasted over the silly season)
Happy holidays to all!
This is what steemit is really all about. good job
Happy holidays and I love the picture and your team mind. Following now.
That is so nice of you.
To flourish Steemit need more selfless blogger like you.
See you soon.
Regards @xabi
Thanks, when you think about it though, it's neither selfless or selfish - Just the right thing to do. The better Steemit does (less poor content voted up by bots and the greater spread of wealth), the more Steem is worth. Cheers
Cheers
Wow! Brilliant photography and great publishing work.Thanks @lordnigel for sharing this post with us.👍
great idea! I also beleve we should all do that! and don't worry we won't stop following you, youre contntent is great! Hope youre family get's well.
I think even when we are active, we should all delegate (even a little bit) of SP to the people we have met and we know we apreciate what they vote for.
And if someone is hesitating to delegate... think about the first time you got curated and how it felt good! (even if it's a just few bucks)
I have only been here a month but I also Met some great people here, 100% upvote and agree 100%
Have a nice holliday :)
I'll drink to that!
I see you every where 😁 😀 😀 you have turn to time it self hahahah
Thanks mate, well earned!
Well.. I'm signing out for a couple of weeks, I've given you the lions share. Keep up the good work. Cheers
I did this for a month last year. Great idea to reward the people doing the right thing. Very encouraging. Top effort.
Cheers, it feels like the right thing to do
This is a very generous offer Lord Nigel.
Thanks choogirl, your one of the special people making this platform great. I hope you have a wonderful Xmas and keep up the good work. Cheers
Well.. I'm signing out for a couple of weeks, I've given you what I have left in SP, please redistribute or just put to good use :). Keep up the good work, see ya.
Thank you @lordnigel. I will curate and pay you back with some interest then since I'm a bit a curation whizz these days.
You keep choogirl or give to TeamAus, I want this to go to Steemit - to give something back while I'm gone. Cheers
Ok then. Team Aus thanks you.
