Welcome to Steemit sacryptocollect. Let me know if you got any questions about Steem or anything related to it! The official FAQ can be found here and has A LOT of information https://steemit.com/faq.html - Also remember, Steemit is just ONE of the sites built that uses Steem the blockchain. We also have DTube - our very own Youtube, DSound for Soundcloud and Steepshot if you prefer Instagram like experience. I'd also like to mention ChainBB - forums, Busy - Steemit with more modern look basically, DMania for memes and Dlive for streaming just like in Twitch! You can also earn Steem by gaming now! Search for Steemgar if that's more your thing. Welcome to the blockchain! :)

Thanks @janne! I did know about DTube, but not the others! Appreciate the info!

I agree @cashbrudi!

Hello and welcome Jaco! As a veteran Steemalite (that probably not correct) of 24 hours I can offer no wisdom, except that I met @thelastcentrist the other day and he seems interesting. Best of luck!

Okey! Interesting market tactics you've got! What does the other "steamians" think?

Hi, nothing much seems to happen till you invest in some Steem and convert to Steem Power. All the best.

Thanks @capelight

How much Steem Power do you consider one need to get things going?

I will be happy to follow your Steemit adventure. Welcome, @sacryptocollect

Éxito, saludos desde Venezuela.

Welcome to STEEMIT!

Choose 50/50 when you post to get steem power and sbd. Don’t choose the 100% you will only get steem power, you’ll loose the chance to get sbd.

Keep STEEMING! 🍻

Hi @iwanderela.

Why do you prefer to choose 50/50? Can I not convert steem power to sbd?

Hello there!

We've just chatted in Steem Chat. Welcome to the club. Hope you are happy here... but please keep in mind this is nothing like Fabebook. There's no such thing as privacy here. Everything you post, either in posts or comments, will be public to all.

So, a bit of caution is required. Don't give too much personal information about yourself. Stay safe! :-D

Other than that, this is a great place to know the world through the eyes of others. I'm loving it, so far.

Hugs from Portugal!

PS: I had a few friends from South Africa... but then the economical crisis hit and they went to UK, France, Netherlands... whatever.

Hi guys, Welcome! It is very nice to have you here with us. If you have any questions please post them here and I will try to help, if I can. Good luck!

We have some work to do to get the bots under control here, and the rewards system democratized, but the potential is enormous. Hope you'll join our reform contingent...lol...

Hi @mepatriot

Thanks will do so! I'm not sure how the bots are affecting the whole community and the overall experience, but can think they may have a negative effect, maybe sometimes even a positive one as well.

I haven't see any positive effects. They are being used by some to falsely upvote content, especially by a lot of the bigger accounts here; which, of course damages the experience here greatly as it allows for poor content to make some people a ton of money. What they make unfairly then makes it harder for newbies like us to get much of anything for our content, no matter its quality.

I agree, but an informative bot post for a new user can be positive as he/she might not have known about the information at first, but yes the long term effect of bots will most probably be the downfall of steemit one day.

I have ZERO doubt of it.
