As it turns out, ura-soul was my first witness vote a few days ago. I finally took it upon myself to learn the relevance of voting for witnesses, and it was one of his posts that led me down that path.

As of now, I have only placed a few votes, but intend to make the effort to add votes here and there as time allows until I've placed all of my votes. It's not something I'll take lightly, thus it'll take some time to read through the various witness threads.

I'm still fairly new around here, from an experience standpoint, and have still got a lot to learn about the platform, and steem in general. So far I am enjoying the platform and the community.
