RE: 25 Days In... My Time on Steemit So Far.

That's for the response! I don't know I guess I just have to learn to play the game, but I'm not really about games... :) I'm a doer and content creator. I like talking to people and sharing experiences. I don't really get the "buying votes" thing. I'm not sure how I feel about that either. I like to think that the merit of the posts and the hard work of the person would be enough. But I'm not naive either. LOL. I'll check your post!

Your really doing great so far based on the stats you quoted. You actually have very little to be discouraged about. If you doubt this, go to the new feed for steemit and check a few people with a reputation of 25. Most of the time you will find a list of posts with no votes and virtually no reads. This is a tough gig to get started in and really, I am not sure it matters how good you are at creating content.

I hear what you're saying. I'm reading and learning more about the whole ecosystem here. I have the same problem here as I do in real life I guess. All my friends are poor! LOL! ;-)

I struggled with the whole thing of buying votes for a few weeks, thought it was wrong. A place that is supposed to be based on rewarding writers for decent content and you have to buy votes?

Then I made a comment or two in a conversation with whales about tying the SBD to the US dollar like the whitepaper says it will be. There comments led me to the understanding that for them this is not about generating a place for writers to generate content that won't be found anywhere else but it's about money.

With any game, there is no way to win if you don't know the rules.

I know... I know... I'm still new though. Don't rub off all the shiny yet! ;-)

Welcome to Oz, click your heels three times while saying "There's no place like home".

By the way, I already follow you. You do good work.

Thanks sir! Thanks for posting the link to the Steemit Board and the advice in your minnow post.
