hey first of all i wanna say great initiative and it's basically a win win for everyone. hmm i am thinking cause i always comment on new ones every day how this is gonna work out so i will post here the links of the intro posts i made a comment and the total number ( at some new members if they have created a couple of quality posts probably i will comment them too but in order no to post to many links and make this confusing i will just post as i mentioned the intro post i commented and the total comments number)

the total comments are 8 by now let me know cause i am gonna increase them if you wanna post it here or send the overall total with the links to steemitchat
Also i wanna add that there are 2 great initiatives i know of that help a lot of newcomers. the first is @mikepm74 who makes a post about every 2 days with a list of a top 5 newcomers according to their quality that their intro post has. there is the tag https://steemit.com/trending/welcomingcommittee
The other one is the @welcoming channel by @theaustrianguy in which he resteem and upvotes quality intro posts of newcomers here is the link with the latest update

(Just wanna state that ''promoting these 2 is just for the benefit of everyone i don't have anything to earn from them, i found out on my own their initiatives which i believe are of the best ones out there and i try little by little to welcome new members that exist there too)
Thanks @filtasriza3 . I am still checking all the hundreds of blogs which were referenced and am upvotoing some of them. I also upvoted you for your excellent work in supporting newbies. I think I voted the above a little on their comment when they thanked you, but I still have to get to the blogs.
this initiative was really great. If you have anything in mind for the future or you need help with something count me in!
That's very kind of you @filotasriza3 . Certainly on this one I could have done with some help. I reckon there were 300 to 400 blogs referenced by the posters on this thread in the two days I ran the initiative. So far I have given out well over 500 votes and I still haven't voted much on the newbies' blogs, although I did vote all the newbies who thanked someone for their support. I guess I am getting to the end of it.
Have a look at my latest initiative (Write a story in 300 words or less), If you want, you can do things like resteem, read some of the stories, comment, vote, or whatever works for your time and interest. The idea is to ask writers to write something which may encourage others to go to their blog, or simply get their story rated by others. After all, who doesn't know a story to tell children or to tell your mates?
it seems you had a lot of work :P
i will definitely gonna check your new initiative!
