No problem just #payitforward and when you are able to answer the questions of someone who is new. Even though there won't be a monetary reward (because new users generally start with just the signup bonus unless they unless they have invested money already, which depends if you want to give the platform a try vs. go all out by investing long term into this community (aka powering up - trading dolloars into steem and then into steem power) you are able to do that too or reinvest earnings. The choice is yours :) Try your best to welcome new people and know that they will probably have lots of question. If you see they have a certain interest or talent, maybe give them an idea to run with and post. And if you tell the newer user or users to do the same, hopefully we can create a continuous engaging platform for everyone to succeed on !

Haha actually as much as I will back my advice, you are killing it even more than me and made a great first post. I'd recommend showing your friends (who will be skeptical as will most parents). You can include everyone, but not everyone feels they could write. All they need to do is try and be positive and they will help. But id especially recommend this platform to ambitious friends, dancers, craft makers, photographers. They can decide how they want to treat it. I am constantly writing down ideas unique to me that I feel people may be interested in. and instead of posting them immediately, crafting one or two ideas into a better story. On tuesday only the first four posts you make (comments are still unlimited - thank god!) will receive 100 percent rewards and posts after that in a 24 hour period you can still do but not receive the 100% author rewards. So instead of many memes and goofy pictures, we should see more content that people have spent time really pouring into. Finally any friends who program can make an absolute killing here if they can develop apps, because it makes steemit better, the more tools that are available to everyone and i am happy to see 40k hit by one feature as this will draw more. There's no such thing as too many quality apps for use. THat's all hope to see more content from you!
