Hello steemit. I am drpuffnstuff, thank you for having me! This is my proper introduction!

in introduceyourself •  7 years ago 

I like many other users. Came on here, and botched my first few posts. I didn't know what I wanted to blog about here. I was horrible at formatting everything. I didn't know anyone at that point so there wasn't many people who even looked. This is my attempt at a proper introduction.

I found steemit quite randomly. I looked up steem, and decided it was a good coin to buy. There were things being built off of it and it had what seemed to be a great proof of use. I bought steem on poloniex and thought. Then I thought now what do I do with it, do I stake it? What wallet do I put it in? After some looking around I found this place. Steemit. I spent a day looking around, watching videos how it all works. Came straight in and said hello. Moved over my investment from poloniex and powered it up!

The wallet is super easy to use, I feel like its my most secure crypto investment i have currently! I don't worry about my money in my account here, I worry about my money on poloniex constantly, and I worry about my bitconnect investment daily. But, I sleep easy trusting my steemit account/wallet!

On other social media platforms I hardly posted anything. I would just answer question my friends had, try to clear there misconceptions when they had them, and my only 2 posts in the last 5 months was 1 telling everyone they should buy bitcoins and to get ahold of me if they were interested. Then next was me telling everyone they should have bought bitcoin and that its not too late.. That was 3 weeks ago. I have been on steemit for 3 weeks now! Now I think facebook what? Or reddit who? I have hardly stepped a virtual foot into either site since!

My interest are so broad that is hard to pinpoint my few favorites. Ive skateboarded and played video games since I was a kid. So those 2 things hold a special place in my heart. I live in the mountains so I hike, camp, repel, and ride dirt bikes a lot as well.. All extreme sports interest me and I want to try them all someday. Sky diving is on my list to try soon! I read as much as I can. I like epic fantasies or good fiction the most. R Scott Bakker, GRRM, Haruki Murakami, Hunter S thompson are just a few of my favorites. I like futurology, science, archeology, and history (even math recently). And I have a love/hate relationship with politics and religion. I'm also a big marijuana legalization activist. So the things that I might post about are very random and spread out across all the tags :) .

In my first 3 weeks here, aside from commenting a lot and meeting too many awesome people name here. I have posted mostly stuff about the tips I've learned being on steemit. I want to help everyone else adapt to this place faster than I did if possible! Some examples of these posts are here...

I did a #steemgig and met all the really cool people behind that. Its like a steemit user community outreach program. I want t do good things for people in the name of steemit! I want to pay others to do the same! I would rather pay someone from steemit to do something for me/us than hire someone somewhere else!

Here is the #steemgig I did..

And here is a #steemgig you can do and I will pay you. One person is about done with 2 bookmark designs for me, but I will still pay 1 or 2 people for another one! The more the merrier! Additionally, the sooner the better!

I am hoping to help steemit grow, and I'm willing to pay it forward. Giving out all the SBD's I've made in my first few weeks back to other steem users. First to the few who will make me bookmarks. And then I have a bigger #steemgig in mind which might leave me buying some SBD's on poloniex. In order to pay a fellow steemian to spread charity in the name of steemit! Spending time answering questions when I see them, posting things that might help new users. And adding more and more good content to steemit on the subjects I care about!

My original introduction can be found below if you want to see advice on how not to do an introduction, go and look at it haha!

We have an extreme amount in common! Just going over all of your interests was like omg! Haha... I think it's really well written and has inspired me to think more clearly on how I might describe myself and the interests have. Thank you for sharing, glad we have connected and looking forward to getting to know each other :)

Indeed! I enjoy your music and also agree with most of the things you post. We are all indeed slaves together! So teach me how to do it better damnit! Have you ever watched rick and mortys? there's an episode where the battery in his spaceship dies, you should watch it!

welcome to the NWO!

As long as its decentralized HAHA!!

lol it is based on chaos theory! :-)

Hey man ,you are great guy with really big heart. I read it from beginning to the end . And im very proud of you ,cuz someday i want to be like you. 🙂🙂help me ,help you .🚀✔

Hey thanks, I don't handle compliments well haha but that's really nice of you to say, I try my best! I noticed your bookmark post got to 10$ or so, so far! that's good news. You just keep doing what your doing and I will be the one asking for help before long haha!

Very well written man... Looking forward to see with some more bang-bang..

Rad dude good to know a little more about you. You were the first to reach out to me and engage with your #steemgig. I thank u for that offer. Only being less than an hour in to Steemit I didn't have a clue what it was even about, lol. Sorry.

I've use to skate myself. Did it for about 17yrs I was never really any good but it's the best thing ever. I don't skate anymore coz if I injure my hands I won't be able to screen print which is my trade and my own business that I run solo. Actually your 2nd interest marijuana is actually how I accidentally got into screen printing about 25yrs ago. However that's a long story and I'll blog about that in the future here on steemit.

Cheers thanks for reaching out to me :D

If you scroll down my blog and you see a picture of a green shirt in a sea of green plants. I designed that shirt. Well I had the idea and made the company.. Johnny Apple Pipe lol.. but nice. Ya my brother had a kid and decided he couldn't get hurt and thats why he quit, so I get it.. but I recommend getting a long board. lots harder to hurt yourself and it still feels nice to roll! And I look forward to hearing the long story yo!

Welcome to Steemit man! :D

Upvoted & Followed!

Hi, thanks josh. just hit 600 posts and you already have 400 followers, your doing something right! And i'm following now. Like the way you post the news so I'm sure you will see me in the comments section of on of your posts before long!

Thank you! I appreciate it! :)

Hey man, fairly new to steemit as well. Always nice to hear about others who are finding success here! Cool to see you're into hiking as well - my entire blog is dedicated to it :)

Welcome :-) Great intro, Nice to have you onboard - Follow me and I will follow you ;-)

Welcome to Steemit :)
I like you found it through the Steem coin itself and am barely on other social media despite me surrounded by it in my career.
Enjoy!!

Sup, man? Great introduction! Good to see you're getting the hang of it.

Best of luck on your future endeavors!

I am impressed with the improvements you've made in the last couple of weeks, you were one of the first few people I followed, due to your geographically familiar posts. Keep up the good stuff @drpuffnstuff.

Made it all the way through. Glad to have you on my feed and following me. If I had free time I'd take a crack at the booknarks, but life's very busy at the moment.

I find it ironic I can engage with complete strangers and yet I haven't made a Facebook post in what feels like 3 months. Steemit is such a better community. :)

Welcome to Steemit! :)

Welcome to steemit :)) You will love this community! Everyone is so lovely and positive here, and its the best social media platform! If you ever get hungry... dont look on my page :P Alla x

Wow! You've done a lot with that 3 weeks. Good Job! :)

Hi @drpuffnstuff !
That's some weird ass name and hard to spell man!

You should make an in depth and interesting #introducemyself post. Look at the trending posts on the tag for inspiration. A good one will get your account started a bit better. Check out @teamsteem's guides for any of your questions about how steem works. It is complex.

When you are ready to post your long introduce post with proper formatting and it looking all pretty, comment here and ping me on steemit.chat and we can get that post promoted in the post promotion channels for new authors.

Welcome to Steemit! I hope you like it as much as I do. I'm following you to know you better. Feel free to connect with me @lulita 😀

Nice to meet you @drpuffnstuff!

Welcome, I've only been steeming a couple of weeks and still figuring things out. I am definitely a recent fan of Murakami and read all of Thompson's books about 30 years ago when I was a young man. Unfortunately, my memory of that time is diminished for some odd reason. See you around!

I know I read your "minnow to the minnows" post and got some good tidbits from it, and I think I followed you based on that post.
Welcome to here, wherever here is.

Welcome friends
