@NoNamesLeftToUse The Writer/Artist Himself here and I got something to say!
Unfortunately
Due to the title of this article and that massive, throbbing, succulent image above, you've probably, through a small amount of deductive reasoning, a hint of reading comprehension, and a bit of skill, already figured out what I'm trying to say.
But I Don't Care!
I'll say it again!
One thousand followers! Holey horse's ass!
I'm happy about that, even though some of this follow for follow nonsense somewhat murdered the significance of such an accomplishment.
I Don't Care About That Either!
The facts remain intact on this magnificent bit of technology known as a blockchain.
Maybe you were expecting to see a screenshot of my 1000 followers and a little thank you note? Not happening here!
Everyday, I take my time, work my ass off, provide a uniquely entertaining experience day in and day out, never straying away from myself to follow the herd and chase that almighty dollar by telling the people exactly what they'd want to hear that day.
I did it.... myyyyyyyy way!
So That Means
You're reading this today because there's a strong chance you enjoyed something I did yesterday(and the day before that, and the day before that, and the day before that, or maybe it was last week)!
You're a legit follower, a true fan of my work, and some of you even managed to work your way into the friendzone.
Thank You!
Thanks for enjoying, whatever it is you enjoy about me and this amazing blog I've been able to put together over the past many months.
Since I'm a man of my word, and since the timing was just right, I've decided to replace the 1000 Steem powerdown payment I took out a couple of months ago to help get started investing in this amazing thing we all call cryptocurrency.
This brings my Steemit account up to nearly 16000 Steempower. I could hand some lucky winner a five spot today just for showing up, but I think giving myself the ability to do that multiple times per day with the push of a button and just because I liked something of yours is a far greater way to show my appreciation for you, your work and this platform of ours. Besides, that's what you do for me, right? It's only fair.
Lastly
When I grab life by the balls, I squeeze!
It would be easy to say something like:
Nearly ten months ago, I had no idea I'd be where I am today.
I don't want to lie to you though. I knew, eventually, this blogging thing would start working out for me. I didn't know how well things would be going, but I knew things would be better than they were on day one.
When you have a grand vision, set goals, and truly enjoy what you do, I think slowly finding some measure of success is a given. It has to happen. If not, then it's time to make a few changes. I've made changes, changed my mind on a few things, I've failed more times than some have tried.
I've yet to find a comfort zone, I haven't become complacent or lazy, and most importantly, I'll never take any of this for granted. I won't let it go to my head. I'm having far too much fun now. No point in ruining it.
@nonameslefttouse "When I grab life by the balls, I squeeze!"
Reminds me of the movie "Dirty Work". If you haven't seen it, stop whatever you are doing and do it now.
Also, this is the first post I have seen, but I am looking forward to the content up through 2, 3, and 10+ thousand followers!

I passed six and seven hundred without a peep, I guess 1000 is worth a mention, won't be too long at the current rate, which like you said has questionable merit. If 700 followers meant even 100 votes it would be a thing, but it's not even close- number of followers is meaningless to a point, unless it's used as an indicator of how active one is on the site. But yes I know how we have done it; with honor and dignity and lots of real nice posts.

I still check your posts from time to time, but lately I'm try to spend less time on steemit. Too much traffic on platform, but we want that, do we?

There is a lot of static traffic. Unfortunately, I don't think that's what we want. Quality blogs produced by quality bloggers. The quick buckers and their stolen content they "share" is the facebook thing to do. People do that for free and I'd prefer it stays that way. There's such a huge difference between content producers and content consumers. I still believe this place is here for content producers to thrive and shift the paradigm. Because of that belief, I work hard and stick to the original vision. Sure, the wallet grows, but it didn't grow because I required instant gratification. This is simply the place for people like me, and many others, to explore uncharted territory and be pioneers.

I agree with you view point, but content producers need content consumers. Think about theater. You need actors and audience otherwise it will not work. And blogging will be just one part (one community) of steemit blockchain in the future. Trade, banking, moving funds, ads.... It's coming.

Yes, and content consumers should be happy with the opportunity to earn while enjoying the show, rather than having to pay at the door. Instead, so many want more, and attempt production, don't have a knack for it, and quit the platform completely. Doesn't have to be like that!

I'm still congratulating you on the 1000 followers even though I'm feeling the same about followers. When I first arrived here, I fell for the follow to be followed way too and quickly built up my number of followers but it didn't take long to discover that the number of my followers were not actually following judging from the number of eyeballs on my posts. So I started on a wrong footing and I guess there's no other way for me to learn the lesson. More impressively, and probably worth more congratulating will be your increase in SP. That's inspiring and thanks for letting me know that someone like you who have been around much longer still goes through similar daily struggles like a minnow like me. And most importantly, thanks for letting me know that your success is that you failed more times than most have tried. I'm not giving up and persisting on, and will be prepared to embrace failures along the way.

Ever since I started, I just let them come to me. Sure, I'm still out there mingling from time to time. Usually just to crack a few jokes, never expecting anyone to follow me. The best meals are prepared slowly. If you want fast food, you're eating the consequences. I do feel bad for those who focused so much energy in acquiring a blind following, the ones who won't see your work. I did my best to speak openly about the consequences on many occasions, so I at least know I tried to help with the right advice... but of course, the struggle is real, and those who could have used the knowledge failed to look. Too busy trying to get noticed, to notice.
Don't worry though. If you're here to blog, then stay, blog. Your rewards will come once your seats gradually begin to fill. I am proof this entire system works. Besides, you folks today just starting out are earning one hell of a lot more than we ever were months ago. If the value drops and money disappears, stay, blog away, you'll still earn Steem, then the value will spike and you'll be in the same boat as me. It's a long term time investment, but if you don't have time, don't bother.

It's been more than a couple of months, more like ten. Climbing the ladder here, anyone should be able to do it, provided they have some sort of talent as a blogger. Be your own version of professional and you'll be able to do great things. If you're slack, expect that in return.
You heard about the place and immediately signed up? That's a damn good sign you're already on your road to success. Those who are unsure quite often remain that way and don't get far. I was the same way. Signed up the instant I heard and haven't looked back since.

Stuff certainly does keep people busy. I know the feeling. Votes have been down, views have been down, but I keep plugging away and things are starting to normalize, kind of.

Yeah, I guess it's also to do a lot with the new members, making everyone less noticed. You know, I keep my rewards up a bit now with randowhale.

I have mixed feelings about the vote buying. Personally, I don't use it, because I feel others need it more. In the long run though, is it worth it? Spending money to make money is nothing new. Is the max potential vote still 5%? If that's the case, the max vote is only worth $5 minus what you spent. Then subtract the 25% curation reward pool at the end. The numbers don't really add up, in my opinion.

Yeah, it is a bit of a gamble, but I figured if my posts look to earn a bit more, maybe people will be more eager to take me seriously. I dunno.
You know what it is, everyone seems so focused on new members and supporting new members, that all the minnows who've been around for a while get lost in the mix somewhere. Someone told me a while ago he was surprised I'm not a dolphin yet, but I never got a big break from whales for anything. Newbies seem to sometimes get hundreds, simply for being new.
Not that I want to look like a whiny little baby, crying 'It's not fair!'. But it does feel like that sometime. I've been doing my best to help people out where I can, but stuff like that always goes unnoticed. Simply being new is way more effective it seems. It's just frustrating at times, so I'm testing out ways of helping myself get noticed. If commenting and blogging doesn't work, maybe post payouts will.

I understand that logic completely. I've experimented myself. I actually explained some of the psychology in this post. Even with my trademark flashy images, catchy titles and reputation... if I don't have money beside the post, people seem less likely to look. Followers will look, eventually, but catching new eyes on my work has become difficult.
It is strange that so many established members got cut off, or feel cut off and expressing that isn't whining. It's a simple fact. I don't understand the logic behind supporting new members, and leaving old ones in the dust. Sure, new members will be encouraged to stay, but older, proven members will leave, taking their SP with them, so that won't help retention or the value. Shortsighted thought process.

Aah, that's a good post. I do keep upvoting my own posts. I have experimented with keeping it at 0, but that did not yield good results at all. I don't feel like I'm entitled to a piece of the pie, but I do feel bad that newbies get favored over me, simply become they're new.
I'm not the best blogger out there, nor am I the best photographer. I enjoy my own written gaming stories and have gotten good reviews, but I know it's not everyone's cup of tea. However, as far as I'm aware, the quality of my posts overall hasn't dropped, yet the number of upvotes has dropped dramatically. I have over 1000 followers, so it feels really crappy when I see newbies getting five times as many upvotes or payouts for something that's no higher quality than my posts.
Yes, I do think we should be kind to newbies. I've actually shared quite a few newbie posts a while back to get them some extra eyes. I just feel that we can welcome them in other ways, besides leaving the established members in the dust.

I agree. So many of us had to work our way up, it was incredibly difficult, but satisfying as you progress, much like a video game. It seems like some of the new members have the game on easy setting, while for many us it only got harder. I'm not one to give up, or give in though. I'll take the challenge, but I know how frustrating it can be. You're not the only one feeling the way you do. It's actually quite common and that is a tragedy in the making.
We can change a few things though. Lately I've been encouraging more and more people to vote at 25%, and often. That will negate many of the ill side effects we're experiencing here and help many pick up where they left off. My 25% vote is still worth more than what my 100% used to be, and that's the same for everyone. More votes at that rate would add up and we'd see the increases in payouts so many were looking forward to.

Haha nice post you deserve it! So with something like 15000 Steempower you only get $5 per upvote? But that's of course 50% of the pay out so the rest of the pay out is $5 dollars worth of steem correct? I'm new to Steemit and trying to understand how much steempower equals how much payout for an upvote:)
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
It means my vote, at full power, with the value of Steem being where it is today, when I upvote, I'll give out about $5 maximum, maybe more. Someone with something like 30000 Steempower would probably be giving out about $10 max votes. The value of the vote will fluctuate with the current value of Steem. If it spikes, my vote will be worth more. If it goes down, my vote will be worth less.

Thanks a lot for your reply it's clear to me how it works now :) So investing in Steempower can be a really good investment in terms of money if the Steemprice goes up. But a very bad investment in terms of money when the Steemprice goes down. But isn't the Steemprice bound to go down because of the inflationairy nature of Steem because it doubles every year? Or doens't the value of Steem necessairy decrease by 50% each year as long as people won't sell the Steem they get?
