Hello, dear readers!
I have to admit, this is a bit unexpected even for me 🙂, but this is my last Steem Representative report. I started Power Down. Steemworld now says I withdraw 30% of my Steem Power, but it will be less. I plan to cancel the Power Down soon, unless some unforeseen circumstances intervene.
Many make Power Down a real tragedy, even apologizing for it. This is a little funny, because everyone has the right to use their resources as they see fit. Doing Power Down at STEEM price of 18 cents is definitely not smart. I certainly did not plan this. I was asked if something terrible happened to me, so I report that I am fine. The only reason I'm withdrawing money is because I haven't been able to handle the household budget. I have not been paid for a very long time, I changed jobs, but the situation has not improved, so far. In short, I'm just patching a hole in the budget 😆.
Those who do a Power Down lose their right to support from the Steemit team. By the way, I consider it fair. That's why I'm sending 100% of the rewards from this post to @tinochka2, who is currently fighting cancer and going through chemotherapy. This requires large financial costs.
Well, that's all, I made the introduction, satisfied everyone who was interested. Now I can go to the report.
As I'm stepping down as a Steem Representative, this is a great time to take stock of what I've accomplished and what I haven't. In my opinion, the primary task of the Representative is communication with people, explaining how everything is arranged here. The Representative literally has to lead the newcomers and anyone who needs it by the hand. Critically evaluating my activity, I must note that my emphasis has always been shifted towards writing posts. I love to write and I always have ideas for new posts. But I will not hide, I was also motivated to write posts by a financial incentive.
Post regularly - ideally with a diverse range of posts
Thus, I will rate my writing activity at 70%.
Comment as much and as widely as possible - particularly making constructive comments to help people improve their posts and their activities on the platform
And my activity helping other authors at 20%.
Vote regularly - make sure you use all your voting power
Most of my votes go to posts by Ukrainian authors. Since there is a war in our country, I understand better than anyone that they need financial support. Therefore, there are many excellent posts by authors from other countries who deserved my support, but never received it.
However, I want to consider this point in more detail, because most of the time I was a Representative and a curator at the same time. Was I a good curator? I made a really hard effort to distribute votes among authors from different countries, I tried to support beginners, I looked for posts on completely different topics, I looked for posts outside the communities. At the same time, my main requirement was that the post meet certain of my personal quality criteria. But if you evaluate the distribution of my votes among the authors, it could be done better. Thus, I consider myself to have completed the task of supporting the community by 70%.
Delegate wisely (if at all)
I delegated SP only to the curation account of the Ukrainian community to support its development. And I also delegated SP to my wife's account, because she deserves only the best from me 😍. In short, I fulfilled the requirement for delegations by 100%.
Keep powering up
So far I have fulfilled this requirement. 100%. I hope I will continue to move in this direction, although the circumstances do not inspire optimism.
Make sure your posts are the very best they can be - in content and presentation. Ensure your posts look good, read well and do not have unnecessary spelling or other errors.
🤔 Let's say 60%.
Another activity that I have devoted quite a lot of time to is promoting Steem. I have an Steem accounts on X and Instagram, but I have not been successful with it. I had slightly better success with paid advertising campaigns in Google Ads, but my account was blocked there because I could not document my relationship with Steemit INC. 😆 How should I rate myself? I think 30%.
If I sum up all my activities using a simple arithmetic mean, I get 64%. This is my personal assessment of myself as a Steem Representative.
What's next? I think nothing has changed. I will continue to be the same @o1eh I was, only with less responsibilities 🙂 .
I can absolutely accept that, although I find it sad. Not because you're doing a power down, but for what reason...
I admire you for the activities you have done despite your situation on the Steem. I would be delighted if you could continue to write here. I don't have to follow any rules with my votes :-)

Nothing changes, I will continue my activities as before. Actually, I wanted to say in the post that despite the Power Down, I will do everything the same as before 😃
However, I'm a little sad that I have to do Powrer Down. You see, I am currently working two skilled jobs at the same time. In my main job, I am an inspector overseeing the technical condition of equipment. In my additional work, I design chemical plants that will operate somewhere in the Arab Emirates. It is a little surprising that such two jobs could not bring me at least some income. This situation is temporary. At the main job, a bankruptcy case has been filed against the company, and after its completion, salary payments will resume. At the additional work, the estimate, according to which the project will be financed, including my salary, was suspended at the approval stage. It just so happened that it all happened at the same time. 🙂
I want to thank you for your comment. I was very pleased to read it 🙂

Oh, those are really very unfortunate coincidences. I actually had a good feeling about your jobs. But at the same time, it sounds like things could turn around just as quickly.
I'll keep my fingers crossed for you and am just as glad that not much will change :-)

I'm sorry I'm not in the habit of reading reps' reports, I read your text just now.
Too bad! When I stopped doing full power ups, and then stopped doing even 50/50s, because of my financial situation, I felt pretty bad about myself, considering I know what the requirements are on this blockchain, and even though I see a lot of people actually circumvent them. And after all, most of us need that money at one point or another.
Well, I won't dwell on that now, because I'm going into the realm of fair-unfair, which is the most painful for me.
I'm sorry things haven't improved much for you with the new job, I hope it's only temporary! God, I hope this war stops soon! And things will improve faster from there on.
You are really very humble with your assessment of personal contribution to the blockchain, I can't imagine how much time and effort you put into it. I hope it was worth it! From a personal point of view.
Thank you for all your support throughout, it really meant a lot to me! And let's hope for better times. Here, with the cost of steem, and out in real life.

I'm sorry not because I'm doing Power Down, but because I made a lot of effort to avoid it, changed jobs, found additional work. All this is a significant departure from the comfort zone. But none of this helped. However, looking ahead, I received another good offer today. Who knows, maybe there will be another job change post soon.
I treated and still treat Steem as a hobby. I do not consider all the time spent here in vain, because I did what I like. 🙂
Yes, I hope that both my situation and yours will get better. 🙂

Прикро, що все так, як є, але це не допомагає. З іншого боку, знову ж таки, добре, що у вас є резерви у вигляді STEEM і що він зараз корисний.
Дякую вам за вашу роботу і бажаю всього найкращого! До нових зустрічей...

Thank you 🙂 From a purely human point of view, Steem is an amazing project that is able to lend a helping hand to those who find themselves in an unfavorable situation. It performs an important humanitarian role. But I would definitely like to avoid this situation. I intended to grow my account to become a small curator so that my support would help newbies grow. Well, who knows, maybe these plans will come true someday.

It's not easy to take out your stake especially when you have invested so much time, effort and energy in building it. Having said that, you have every right to do so and what good is this asset if you can't fix something as basic as your budget with it.
64%? You are being humble. We are all witness to your hardwork despite the unusual circumstances in your country. You make this place lively with your optimism. You are not allowed to disappear (like me). 😀

I do understand about the need to sometimes power down... I don't like to, but have had to several times, also for personal budget reasons. I don't think people should be judged harshly for doing so!

Weldone for all your services as curator and SR.
It's sad to hear about your financial situation, definitely, it's not easy as a family man and in a country that is facing war crisis. This is what I am so concern about and I hope and wish that your situation gets better.
You have contributed a good share in the platform and still contributing, this I have witnessed.
Solving such needs is important as a family man.
Better days ahead!

Even though things are not going the way we would like them to, I will continue my activities here as before. Who knows, maybe in the future the situation will really change. 🙂

Fair in the sense that they can do whatever they want with their stake and the rule is enforced equally, sure. But I could argue that if a small business has a policy that disconnects it from one of its biggest advocates, then maybe that policy is counterproductive.
Anyway, I continue to hope for an end to the turmoil that has put you in this situation, and I continue to be grateful for all of your contributions here, despite the turmoil. I can't imagine how you have been able to do it.

I believe that under the current circumstances, the condition of not having Power Down in order to get support from the curators is almost the only factor that deters dozens, maybe hundreds of users from the temptation to sell everything. Yes, we would like to see more investors and a more natural demand for STEEM, but there are no prerequisites for this yet. Perhaps, thanks to our joint activities, these prerequisites will appear over time.
So far, the negotiating positions of both sides are so distant that there is no reason to hope for an end to the war in the near future. Although I still have the feeling that the war will end as suddenly as it began. In any case, the war did such damage to the economy that my generation is unlikely to be able to rebuild everything.
I'm lucky to live in the deep rear. Modern warfare has very long arms and missiles and attack drones fly into my region, but it is not at all the same as combat. My skills allowed me to find additional work where I design chemical plants. This should have allowed me to avoid having to do a Power Down, but a significant delay in the approval of the estimate for a project I'm involved in left me with no choice. In short, I consider myself lucky because I live far from the front and can lead a normal lifestyle. If everything works, the financial situation will also improve.

Greetings friend @o1eh
In recent years, you could say that; Since they implemented the #club5050, a culture of growth was generated, and as we managed to increase our Steem Power, the need to obtain dolphins and orcas began to arise, this has also been a reason why it has become so The power down was alarming, when I did it, some came to believe that they were going to close the platform . Power down will always be acceptable, and much more so, when there is an important reason involved. I hope that soon you can count on a good income to cover your household needs.
It has been a great gesture to provide the reward to friend Tinochka2, thank you for it.

Thank you, I share your opinion. Power Down is as much a component of the system as any other. But definitely every Power Down in one way or another harms the price of STEEM and, accordingly, the development of the entire blockchain. I see that the blockchain is currently growing, albeit slowly, so I hope that eventually the demand for STEEM will exceed the supply 🙂

I agree with you! Power down is not an option where one should feel ashamed or penalized for that. If one is working on a site for years, he has a right to use his earnings. I am sure a person like you will come back stronger than ever before.

Thank you, friend. I think everyone plans to do a Power Down at some point, but it's not smart to do it at this price. It feels like you're giving away what you've earned for nothing 🙂. It is definitely better to do it at the peak of a bullish trend 😄.

Hopefully, you will hang around and not withdraw your Steem until around December 1 - 20th.
How to survive without without withdrawing your crypto: If single go to a singles bar, upper scale and meet persons who have good jobs.
Watch their eyes as you explain to them what you do and how you do it.
If their eyes start to glaze over say, And that's how it works!
Then, they will know you are very intelligent.

Шкода що як виводиш силу голоса то настільки steemit не пробачає цього☹️
Вірно ж, це ж накопичений ресурс своїми силами. Ми ж усі люди, нажаль обставини бувають різні. А з економікою та війною в Україні то взагалі виживання.
А за настільки щирі та добрі слова до моєї бабусі дуже дякую 🤗❤️

Я б не сказав, що Steemit не пробачає. Просто для того щоб економіка Steem розвивалася, потрібно щоб якомога більше людей збільшували силу свого акаунту. Щоб стимулювати цей процес команда Steemit встановила правила - хочеш нашої підтримки, роби Power Up. Я думаю, це чи не єдине, що спасає цей проект від того, що люди продадуть все і опустять ціну токена до 0.
🙂 Сподіваюся вона теж сама собі заздрить.

I agree with you on this, but the reality is bad that happened to me after doing a power down seven months ago. I lost a lot of support. But I did it to save my family's finances. I don't regret the action I have taken. Sometimes we have to sacrifice our hard-earned reputation to save our families.
Whatever the consequences of the power down I've done, I just want to thank the Steemit platform or anyone who worked on the sc01 and sc02 teams. They have supported me a lot all this time, although now they have left me.
I have proven that STEEM has provided a better life for me and my family.
I am happy and I still have the same passion and commitment to this platform.
