Feels like I joined forever ago but it's still only around 3.5 months.

I saw a shoutout by @grantcardone on Facebook, took a quick look over the welcome page and was sold immediately. I literally had nothing to lose so just gave it a go.

I knew it wouldn't be easy to start because I didn't know anybody but after using it for about a week, HF19 happened and everything exploded. I decided to sell my litecoin and buy some Steem & powered it up.

In the beginning it was tough to tell who was legit and who wasn't, the whole platform was new to but after a little while you develop a BS filter :) 'Rep' isn't the only factor to consider.
