Ola Beautiful Peeps!
WOW, what a week we have just had in our PowerHouse Creatives Server. It was seven days of constant “go go go” – but it was absolutely worth every second! Being a part of the @theycallmedan Dpoll was nothing short of AMAZING! – Hectically stressful haha, but AMAZING still! I think I speak for everybody involved in that poll challenge when I say that it literally raised this platform from the dead! Hahaha! It has brought so much positivity and enthusiasm to life and it has inspired me on SO many levels too! I have all SORTS of plans and ideas rolling around in my head, which I still need to get to. I managed to get a little bit of decent sleep last night so I am feeling semi-human today but still have a LOT of catch up to do (sleep included lol) – although I did manage to make a small dent thank goodness!
Through this challenge, there has been a rather large amount of interest expressed by people from all over - in joining our PowerHouse Creatives (aka @steemitbloggers) community, and I promised everyone that I would put out an applications post today… so, here it is peeps!
So this is how we ROLL!
As most of you already know our community is closed. This does not mean that we are trying to keep people out or that we ignore those who aren’t members – it simply means that we are focused on keeping our standards of content high and our member commitment higher. I think if nothing else, we have proven those two qualities to the Steemisphere over the last year and even more so in the last seven days.
I am not going to sugar-coat things for anybody, because it would not make any sense whatsoever, nor would it serve anybody fruitfully - long-term. Our community is incredibly proactive and DRIVING the success and growth of the people within it is our FUNDAMENTAL PURPOSE! Our reach extends WAY beyond our community walls into the Steemit platform as well as beyond and this is one of the primary reasons why it is important that our members are able to hold our flag high.
We work hard and we play hard! Yes, there are daily responsibilities and obligations. Yes, there are things that fly within our walls and things that definitely don’t. Yes, we require quite a bit from you as an individual but you get it tenfold in return. Absolutely EVERYTHING is catered for and considered… including those times when you will NOT be able to fulfil your obligations. It simply requires the following of our procedures, which once you have grasped – are not complicated at all.
Everybody in our community jokes about my “boot” because they know that there are certain things that never were and never will be tolerated within our walls… and when they surface, those people will very quickly meet my infamous “boot” sending them out the door – or at least showing them that it is open. A few such things would be the likes of: not doing what you promised to do when joining, plagiarism, spamming, causing trouble with other members etc. These are all no-brainers really, so should not be much of a shock or challenge to anyone who is actually on Steemit (or any other platform) to make it a better place for everyone!
We may be a relatively small collective, but we have members from over 24 countries and that continues to grow. Most of our members are also key players in some of Steemits other highly regarded and supportive discord communities and initiatives - and all of us at “home” know without question or doubt that every single one of our members will make us proud with whatever they do – wherever they go – and that is precisely how we intend to keep it. Simple as that! No, this kind of “ethos” does not work for everyone – and that is perfectly fine - Each to their own. The people who have done the “putting in” are the ones that understand what they “get out” of it all ;)
So, if I have not scared you away yet, or if the above info excites you (even better) and you would still like to put in an application to join our fantabulous and VERY crazy little family… then by all means – hop into our applications server and do the necessary.
YEAH BABY YEAH - I WANT TO APPLY
HELL NO - WAY TOO MUCH HARD WORK
We are all really excited to open our doors and arms to some fresh talent – so looking forward to seeing what you peeps will dish our way ;)

Sorry I have to decline ! I dont like voting , I hate discords, I am lazy and boots dont appeal to me.
Thats Why I didnt do anything last week in the contest.
In the beginning adjusting is a thing, but this week proved work ethics from PHC members are exactly up My alley.
So I am in and not going away !
And @guchtere is still waiting for your boot-answer👊

If there was no barrier to entry, there would be no standards to uphold as far as quality goes. Like you mentioned, we are quality and not quantity.
That being said, such a great place to be!

Yay! I think this is a great time to float this out there @jaynie, after this past week's session of hectic community engagement. People got a strong glimpse of what we DO... so inviting some to whom that appeals in... great idea!
Re-steeming, of course... may also do a "direct" post of my own later, and point to this one.

Some things serve as their own reward. Excellence is its own reward. An individual who seeks to be excellent so that they can achieve some other reward as compensation will never truly be excellent. Excellence is the reward.
Another achievement that is its own reward is visibility. For a community like Power House Creatives, moving up from nowhere to achieve second place in a highly visible poll is its own reward. PHC can not now be ignored by anyone. They may not like us, but they cannot ignore us.
@jaynie inspires both of these rewards. The entire community rallied to make PHC more visible, and they only did so because they are each excellent achievers in their own right. I am impressed with the community and with your leadership @jaynie. To the universe and beyond! (Thanks Buzz Lightyear)

"Fxck average, you can have that shit"...dang, that's one very great quote 😂
I'm not very sure if I can manage another community lol, I'm already moderating a gaming Discord server and need to do a lot of stuff as well. Do you have high standards on how active members need to be? 😂

@reinhard-schmid is a fabulous artist and he asked me if he'd be able to join the PHC. I'll send him this post Jaynie.
He paints on glass, in reverse and this is his latest painting. Beautiful isn't it? ♥︎♥︎⚖️♥︎♥︎

Thanks a lot for your support in this, @allyinspirit! Just found this post following your link. Reading about all the "standards" and "hard work" sounds a bit scary at first.
Checked the application to see if there was any more info on the herculean tasks awaiting the members. Ok... doesn't seem so hard after all ;-) Actually far less than I thought. Except for it being a daily routine maybe... when I paint I tend to forget things around me. Even missed a TV interview once 😬

Like most things, it can be slow at first but once you can navigate around the PHC discord room it becomes easier and less demanding on your time. Most of the time I like to look at the work of people who have commented on my work and then I comment on their work too. So in some ways, I'm not doing a lot more than what I've always done. Except meeting new Steemians whose work I really like.
I'm trying to free up my time to draw and paint again. So allowing for it to be part of my daily routine helps.
I hope missing the interview didn't have too many repercussions. ♥︎♥︎⚖️♥︎♥︎

You are right, most of the activity outlined in the community guidelines are pretty much, what we do anyways. Actually, having great post lined up for already, can make it even easier in the end.
As an artist and a German I'm always a bit... how should I say.. hesitant (?) with lots of strict rules, but I guess it has been proven, they are necessary. I put in my application and am curious how it will develop. Will be on the road next week and hope I won't have to start my "career" with an absence notice ;-)
Yeah the interview thing was annoying. They were really mad and never came back... thank god there is always another opportunity somewhere else :-)

You certainly work very hard on everything you do and I, for one, can't figure out how you find time to sleep or to eat the yummy food you keep showing us pictures of LOL
Keep on keeping on. So happy that I joined. I didn't for a long time because I felt I was already too busy keeping up with Steem obligations. but as it turns out, if you are active on the platform, you are already following powerhousecreatives anyway.
