Thanks for adding my post into your review @chekohler. I have to agree with you on this point.
I've found it much easier to find good content and engaging authors on the site during the fall.
I've noticed so much more engagement on my posts in the past few weeks. The people who have stayed around are more involved, more committed and more active on the site. It's given me great motivation to do more myself.
This is the ideal time for Redfish and Minnows like myself to power up and starts building a sustainable middle class and help redistribute the wealth so we have a more viable base for users who would not walk away from the platform as easily as before.
You can see the people who have been pushing themselves lately and even from my own experience I have been able to earn more sp than I used to. I think it's great that we can bump up our accounts so much right now. When I started first I though that the people with over 1000sp were massive accounts.
I know differently now but want to get to dolphin status and keep going. @paulag has started a minnow power up league for anybody trying to move from 500sp to 5000sp. It should be interesting to follow peoples progress week to week and see what is possible. I'm joining anyway to see how much I can do.

I was just telling @mimismartypants i can hardly keep up with my moderate internet fame, I've had so much engagnemetn in recent weeks I can hardly keep up. I don't know how big accounts do it, i'm already flustered.
Oh totally, I tend to skim articles that catch me with the headlines and I've found a certain richness in the quality. People aren't writing as much for Steemit but for themselves, I too was guilty of writing the way I think people would want to read but now I just don't give a shit, read it or not I'm going to write the way I feel.
Oh man i've been waiting for the Minnow Power up league thanks for the reminder, I've just signed up now. 14% in and I'm ready to get to 5000SP, Myself and @fullcoverbetting are already in a race to dolphin hood, I hope he joins the league too!
Before I can become a dolphin I first need to catch up that extra 3% you have as a head start! This handicap will only motivate me more. Indeed the dolphin league is going to be a lot of fun. All likeminded people, trying to give the best of their selves . And you know what is the best of it. If we all would start to support each other we will get there much faster!
That is something we often do forget! Supporting people with the same or lesser SP. But it is important to support the ones who are supporting you. It will give their upvotes much more value. It is a vicious circle!
@niallon11 you made it to my list! Be prepared for some opinions about everything :)
@fullcoverbetting, @chekohler ...........Now i want a nice clean fight, no biting, no scratching........stick to the rules and we will all be watching.
Looking forward to the dolphin league myself. I had been watching the redfish one and was very interested in seeing the accounts every week and how they were getting on. Now that we can get involved ourselves it is going to be so much better.
I'm glad to make the list and will be waiting in anticipation for your wise and valued opinions. I love meeting new and active members with the same goals as myself. Other people pushing towards dolphin status and further. Like you say if we all help and push each other then we will get to there much faster. And since the people in the league will all be roughly the same level it will give us a great chance to get in contact with more of these people.
I can promise a clean fight. I can promise no blood but I can't promise no tears :)
It indeed is. Curious how many will participate. I did participate in the red fish league, but that was different and hard. The prizes were handed out based on % increase of the account, which did give the smaller fishes a huge advantage. Still it did motivate me to get on the hall of fame!
If it involves and there are a lot of participants, I will offer a sponsorship for the lucky number 25 just like I do for @abh12345 engagement league!
And yes it is great to follow other active accounts, all with the right mindset and good people!
Looking forward to it!
Cheers,
Peter
Well this one will be divided into four seperate levels depending on your sp.
It should make it a lot more competitive since we will all be operating off a fairly similar playing field. The difference between 600 and 900 wouldn't have the same effect as the difference between 40 and 300. In theory anyway but it will still be up to all the accounts to push hard regardless.
I think we will get a good few. Minnow to dolphin would tend to be the most active group as we are all invested in here and have good contacts and an idea of what we want to do. I'm hoping for big numbers anyway to make it more interesting.
I offered Paulag a sponsorship. It is only a small one, but most of these are active posters so an SBI share could always come in handy.
I don't care how big you get. It's never a bad thing to earn more shares of SBI. Anything that's adds to your value on here is great and I'll be a lot happier when I have a thousand of them. I'm sure paulag will feel the exact same.

I wouldn't know since i'm not one of the big accounts and work full time so i can only do so much. What i have found absolutely brilliant lately is the new partiko app. It gives me notifications for any activity on my account. It's really easy to use on my phone and beginner friendly and has made it so much easier to reply and respond to anybody who is trying to talk to me. Since i joined the engagement league a while back i would say my activity has increased about fourfold on the site and there is no way that i could keep up with it if it wasn't for the app.
When i started i was the same and tried what i though would be the most popular but a lot of the time i was just rambling about topics that i didn't even know much about. People who know their stuff can see through that kind of stuff straight away so it never did well. Now i'm writing about what interests me or what i know and people are responding because they like my opinions or like to tell me why i'm wrong :D
Hahhaha!! Look at you bigish fish comparing notes!! Too cute!! Good luck to all of you!!
P. S. I will moderate your comments if you pay me in steem thanks!! Lol
