Without sense of caring, there can be no sense of community - Anthony J. D'Angelo

A lot of new Steemit users fail to grow in the whole platform of Steemit. Posts are worth just around cents, having less followers, few views, though some had put much effort in writing their articles in quality.

It has been taught on various Steemit posts that the best way to grow in Steemit is creating quality contents, using creative markdown techniques, and engaging in community talks.

Definitely true.

But a new mechanism has evolved to babysit our beloved minnows. Discord channels are on top of that, because it offers a variety of help to minnows. With over 2000 plus members, PAL (Peace, Abundance, and Liberty) discord channel is the hottest among others.

How does it help minnows? Take a look of these awesome features PAL has offered you :

1. The UPVOTE BOTS

In PAL discord, these bots are named "banjo and minnowsupport. These bots caters commands from members. They are also the bots servicing for upvotes.

How to do that?
  • Enter the "registration" channel located on the left side. First, you need to register your Steemit name (assuming you already joined the discord).

  • Type : $register(space)(your Steemitname). Example : $register jassennessaj.
    Banjo and minnow support will automatically reply about your registration. To complete your registration you need too send 0.001SBD/0.001 Steem to banjo and minnowsupport posting the code to the memo transfer.

  • Once you completely sent it, go back to the PAL discord registration channel and register your name again, as as you did before. Once the registration is complete, go to "Upvote" channel to make a request of upvotes from the bots. Like this : $upvote(space)(url of your steemitpost).
    Here is an example :

As a reminder : you can only use the upvote command every 12 hours. Meaning, you have to wait for the next 12 hours to request for an upvote again.

2. General Channel

In the general channel, you will surely see a lot of people welcoming you saying : "Hi","Welcome", "Welcome to the pond", "Welcome, how are you?" from PAL discord members. In this channel, you will see users interact with each other. They exchange ideas and help each other out. You can ask them, 100% guaranteed that there is someone who will assist your questions. It's a place where people exchange ideas and thoughts for the benefit of each other. You can also see a lot of big names in Steemit participated in the channel (@kingscrown, @aggroed, @neoxian, @theprophet0, etc). I assure you, its really cool!

3. Contests/Post Promotion

In the contests channel, a lot of Steemit users plug their contest to let the members of PAL to join. They also normally plug it to promote their contest. Maybe for user participation or for donations. With that, you can see a lot of contests with variety of genre you can choose and the prizes were extremely amazing! It will surely help you.

Well written. And I couldn't agree more as to the role the PAL channel on Discord has played. It really takes the Steemit community and kicks it up to a whole new level.

So, if you are reading this, what are you waiting for?? Head over to https://discord.gg/HYj4yvw and join the conversation!

I'm deeply overwhelmed by your support guys. I hope it could help the minnows out there.

What @lances said! I've recruited a new member, the mystery blogger @readingdanvers, who lives in a mysterious country, and writes a fantastic blog about Marvel's Carol Danvers. Yours is the first post I insisted she read :-)

This post received a 1.0% upvote from @randowhale thanks to @jassennessaj! For more information, click here!

Thanks for the helpful guide. I registered but forgot about it shortly. I just tried the upvote process. The minnowsupport bot worked but the banjo returned banjoBOT - Today at 10:00 PM
Unable to vote. Feature resticted to registered users. - did register 19 days ago Transfer 0.001 STEEM to banjo xesef-ditif-lyvix do I need to re-register for that?

Just run the register command again and it should work. Banjo occasionally develops amnesia.

I will join discord

Glad to have you there mate.

Thank you @r0nd0n! My apology for not including you to this post. Sorry.

You made a great post that deserves to be seen, and that's what is important. The MSP has evolved to cater to so many aspects of the minnow experience, no single guide on the subject will ever be exhaustive. What you did here is great, and the MSP community is better for it. Thank you.

Thank youuu!

Well written! I joined after being on here for more than a week, drifting! No need!

Upvoted

Nice :) Thanks!

This is a useful post especially for newbies. :)

Hi @zazarina. Yeah, I expressed my gratitude to the discord via this post.

followed and upvoted

Excellent post in terms of explanation of registering with the bots. Very clear! While I would not call it a complete guide, it nevertheless helps to boost awarwareness to our amazing minnowsupport community. Well done!

Hello @cryptonfused. Thanks for the appreciation. Yeah, I realized it isn't complete.

Omgsh omgsh omgsh, I'm basically famous! I made it on to your post! Hahah:) obviously I spend some time in discord and have made lots of friends and supporters. Growing together :)

Yeah. I always see you in the discord also :) Thanks for dropping by!

:-)

I'll be watching for you at Discord... same user names? I'm in the fiction channel, mostly, thanks to @rhondak, and it's been a blast. In fact I've been losing 3 hours of sleep every night for a week, it's that hard to pull away!

@carolkean, yes my name is the same I generally spend most of my time in the general room, however because of the same person I spent a few minutes in that chat room as well it was a blast. I'll see you there later!

Nice post

Good and helpful info, @jassennessaj! Cheers! - @sandzat

As a new writer on Steemit (minnow), I am definitely trying to find ways to interact with the community and get my writing noticed. Is this the type of platform that could benefit me?

Of course! It will surely be brotha. Read my content about the upvote bots. It will help you on your posts :)

Yep. This is already helping now that I'm a member. Very frakin' cool.

Thank you so much for the information. It makes it all so much clearer.

This is a great space to meet people and share ideas, thanks for creating it!

Very cool. I'll be heading over there. Thanks for the explanation.

I've joined this and paid the bots you've mentioned here. It's been a great support and I'm glad its here. What do you know about the lovebot? I've read several posts about it and been left confused about what to do.

Hi lovebots are the same as @minnowbooster. It is intended for minnows. Send 0.01 sbd and you will receive $0.8 in your post. Moreover, you can check @aggroed's post about that :
https://steemit.com/bidbot/@lovejuice/lovejuice-a-bidbot-for-minnows-with-an-odd-twist

So the link you showed here is for lovejuice bot. That bot is pretty cool and now that I know about it I will look into using it. I was actually talking about lovebot. These two don't seem to be the same. It was introduced with creative-bot. I'm also unfamiliar with the @minnowbooster. I'm reading now about it and it seems really cool

Thanks for reiterating these points! I know I should be over there on PAL doing more, but I just plain don't think about it until I'm not at computer and falling asleep!

Will now set an alarm to get my butt over there every day!

We will surely wait for you. Its so glad to see alot of women now in PAL. They were also respected. Hope to seenyou there soon :)

Very helpful, I'm a bit slow in the chat rooms, but il make more of an effort now.
Thanks for this.

You will surely enjoy the hype in that channel. I assure you man.

I'v tried on general but I'm not quick enough, I chat to team australia a little bit

Thanks for the guide. Just yesterday I've joined in PAL and getting to know about the community and also the Discord.
Your guide makes sense and ease to get fluent for a minnow.
Thanks @jassennessaj for this post and time you invested for @minnowsupport

Sweet, thank you for this guide I was extremely confused before. Just waiting to get some Steem to register =) Looking forward to it. Cheers!

Nah. I'll send you then :) We're so much glad to see new faces on the discord. Though I am a minnow like you, I'd love to help because thats what PAL's main agenda.

Thank you =) I'll see you on Discord!

I also suggest that minnows don't have to be shy with discord. Most of the people will help you grow with the platform. And very friendly. :)

why i can not join the app ;; #the instant invite is invalid or has expired### that is what i see!

This is helpful! I've been trying to get into the swing of things, and just discovered PAL yesterday. I'm still figuring it all out, and trying to get over my "newbie shyness" but I'll be around!

Not interested, thanks anyway

Its up to you mate. You are the captain of your soul. I am not forcing you either.

Congratulations @jassennessaj!

OMG. Thank you for the recognition @sircork. I really didn't expect that. Thank you in advance!

Well deserved.

Thank you, that's really useful info. I did register but had no idea what to do next :)

Thank you for this post, just joined the PAL, looking forward to sharing and learning in the community!

Great guide bai @jassennessaj

Thank you. I have successfully registered. With some help from my friends. New friends.

Thanks for all of this great information for a minnow like myself. I did not stop to think about how important the Discord channels are! I will definitely be spending more time there, and now with a better understanding of what it's all about! Thanks!
