As a brand new Witness I would like to say thank you so much for seeking me out and taking the time to vote for me - that's exactly what I want to promote more - active users of Steemit taking a real interest in Witnesses and voting with all 30 slot's - every vote makes a difference to every Witness.
I do hope they rethink the Witness voting page, it does pretty much ensure the top 50 stay the top 50 and so many people outside of it are working just as hard to sustain and promote the platform.
