Nice post. As a relative noob, I am invested in the platform and therefore try to stimulate discussion/debate usually on quite contentious topics. I believe nothing retains users like debate, conflict and engaging conversation. I intend to continue doing what I do in order to help grow Steemit and will continue to start fires wherever I believe they need starting.
I can't say my recent foray into the "pizzagate" thread garnered much actual information, but it certainly got some responses. You'll usually find me where the fireworks are, just so you know......lol.
