Worth taking a break from my break.

A big thank you to all of the 1000+ followers of the @oaldamster account.


Thank you ever so much!

There many things I would like to state.

But that would take too much time. Also I tend to wander off while I post. Next you know I'd be working on a long text that should have been in a different post alltogether. So how to celebrate this newly reached milestone? And should it be celebrated? There is still this matter that I want to post about. Never mind, that can be prosponed, just like a Bitcoin ETF {exchange-traded fund}. The sun is out, the sky almost blue, and so am I, because I am actually very shy.

No, it is a time for celebration, not just because this weekend it is the Night Of Winschoten {NOW}. Yes, it does take a whole weekend for an one night fest! Well not for me, I live in this smalltown, to me it is just another noisy weekend. Celebration for reaching another milestone since I started blogging on the Steem blockchain on the 26th of may 2016. So, a big thank you to all! For the upvotes, the support, the replies, the friendship, the laughs, the shared knowledge and so on and so forth. It has been quite a ride so far.

Thank you SteemIt Incorporated for this wonderfull thing called Steem. And thank you for hardfork 19, finally after 15 months it was 1 Steem Power equals 1 Steem Vote. Thanks to the Legend Level Steem members that made it clear with the experiment that the exponential voting system was needed to get lineair. And now, after almost 30 days it slowly is showing a more realistic effect of the changes of HF19. Despite of what some are FUDding, the real reward pool drain was the exponential voting system. But now I am starting to feel a bit angry again, and I want to keep the good mood! So, I'll get back to that when I get back to some serious Steem posting...

Anyway, last wednesday I had great fun telling some good people about Steem and freedom of expression on the blockchain. And it is a pitty that one account request got held up. While one that I made for a good friend, went through right away. But I have come to understand that HardFork 20 {#HF20} will take care of that. Hopefully that one will come soon. Because potential members now have troubel getting one, while spam accounts can do their bad thing. Yet I have full trust in the Steem developement team to get it right with some smart innovative coding. And, I really am looking forward to the implementation of the Steem Community Token! Make it so...!

Have a great one!

PS As a bonus I share with you my Goof Rock hit: "On Steem!"

Groovy song! Did you make this yourself?

Thanks so much good mate!

These kind of milestones deserve a celebration brake. And I am glad I can be part of this awesome thing called Steem. With some great people like you. And to proudly be a part of the Clan McBrilliant troops. ;-)

And I love that running JLP/STNG gag man! =D
(Dan started using stardate in his #EOS posts, that made me smile...)
...

Steem the final frontier, these are the posts of the blockchain enterprise, to slickly shaven go where no blogger has gone before... ^...music...^

Hehe, I love the running jlp/stng gag too!! It makes me smile everytime!!

Totally does deserve a break from a break when you hit a big one. I will have to check out the latest posts for Eos, I have been lax lately!

Enjoy your weekend dude!!!

EOS updates from Dam are a nice read. Think you can even find them searching for stardate. :-)

And thanks man, you have an awesome weekend too!

Well done! I just reached 1000 last week. I found you due to the 'song' tag and am now following :)

Thanks and congratulations to you in return!
Great you found it through the song tag. :-)
Followed in return!

Congratulations on your milestone! It is well deserved :D
You know, I don't think I've been to Winschoten, ever, even though I live fairly close. One of my co-workers even lived there!

Thank you very much! =D

#Winschoten is a nice smalltown, some nice nature, woods, lake Oldambt and so on nearby. It has a well known shopping center, very popular amongst our German neighbours.

It is worth a visit, very crowded during the Night Of Winschoten though... :-)

When you are in the neighbourhood let me know!

Congrats.. Don't forget to support me @jakemore pls follow me...

Thanks! And like my song states: "If you follow me, I will follow you!" ;-)

Welcome.. I'm following you. Counting on you.

Congratulations! Glad I could be a part of it!

Thank you very much!
Great to have you on board!

Congrats 😇

THX! =D
