Full Force

in #msp5 years ago

You know what really annoys me? When great users on Steem don't get the recognition they deserve. After what feels like forever with the past rules that plagued this blockchain and seeing rewardpool abuse happen on a daily basis, I am very happy to see things changing lately. Curation making a great comeback and people remembering who the users have been that have against all odds tried their best and stood firm against the maximizing and extracting of the pool for little to no effort. These users deserve my respect and we need to highlight them more often, I am glad to see many of them are now receiving genuine curation for their past and current efforts and I hope it continues that way.

Another thing that annoys me is that some really deserving ones are too modest to promote themselves. After asking our beloved witness, canadian ambassador and (fill in role here; she most likely does it) to post and remind users about her upcoming shows which I've come to enjoy over the years so I could give them a resteem to my "still kind of alive" followers, she keeps on declining. Well, screw you Crimmi. I'm gonna promote it instead then because you are too stubborn.

So if you like some heavy metal, a nice host that knows a scary amount about the genre and an entertaining night in a chat with a bunch of lovely Steemians while taking a break from the general Steem stuff. I suggest you join the MSP Discord and check out Full Force Radio with @crimsonclad as your host.

I'm going to get this post some visibility with upvotes and this post's beneficiaries are set to @null so they will be burned.

PS. She doesn't know I'm posting this and her show is live now for the next 3 hours so gogogo

Sort:  

So I woke up to find this post after last night's episode and I'm a bit ashamed to see that after I had a very "rarrrarggghh fuck this" sort of show to know that you wrote this and then to see all the people who took the time to comment — I feel like a right twat. Thank you. It means a lot, and I need to step up my game to be worthy of the people who are willing to stand behind all the weird shit I do. I suffer from imposter syndrome, where I put my heart and soul into everything I do and then immediately want to support or pay attention to anyone else rather than my own work, because I love watching the people around Steem do rad things and lifting all of you is naturally easy when you're all doing such diverse, wonderful stuff.

FullForce is a labour of love for me. It's definitely not for everyone (which is to be expected with any niche interest- I seriously love that people even try!), and it takes an enormous amount out of me to do for hours each week. It's also brought me friends, experiences, and has allowed me to build a fun, wild and musically cathartic place on Steem with anyone who wants to join in. The benefits have far outweighed the requirements.

I realize that over two years I have created over twelve full days of live streaming content that I've never really leveraged, advertised, replayed, or shared, outside of those magical times where it's happening live and there are dozens of people singing and chatting and thrashing along. I recognize that it would probably be a lot better to leverage this slowly snowballing phenomenon into something that does a better job connecting more people to steem and more people to each other and more people to music. I know I need help with that, so I'm all ears for people who know how to help grow a brand and do the parts that I am (ironically) too shy or too unsure of myself to do.

Wall of text aside, to all of you here who have given me a mental lift and a full heart, thank you- hopefully I can return the favour here on the platform and out in the world.🖤

I feel like a right twat

mission accomplished :*

the support of loved ones is so important, lol

Crimsonclad is one of the truly underrated steemians . There are very few people were I go, if this person wasn't here would it matter - yes, she matters. Trust me. Good post @acidyo .

@crimsonclad rocks! Metalheads forever.

Nice!
Hey all you devs out there, it's past time for someone to develop a podcast dapp on Steem. I use Radio Public when I drive, and I drive a lot. I don't do video in the car cause it eats too much data, so I download the audio of my favorite shows.
There are plenty of great creators on Steem whose work I would listen to, if it was in an easily accessible audio format!

This would be awesome! CC'd @justineh she is eye'n maybe doing a Steem Podcast.

I think this is a pretty valuable bit of feedback. I've also been doing a "Steem Centric" live show called Steemwave Radio that talks about and explain Steem tech, community, and concepts for about two years with well over 250 hours recorded. I realize that because it's live that it cuts out a lot of people who might be interested but don't have that time or who can't find the show because I don't advertise it. I've been getting a lot of feedback on this and I'm mulling over how to approach it. I do think there are probably others who can do it much better than I do, but I know that I've also covered a lot of ground in this time that could probably used by others to do some good.

Yes! a lot of the shows I like best are streamed live initially, but then uploaded as a podcast for people like me who don't catch it any other way. And if you're going to go that far, why couldn't there be a steem-based platform?
I believe we still have dsound, but personally I've had trouble using that. it doesn't work well on my mobile device, and does not download in the background like my podcast app does.

Crim’s radio shows are the best. She does so much for the community and for the blockchain in general and it is awesome that you did this to promote her show.

CRIMI IS THE BEST

every day when im sad and tired, i think that there is crimi in the world and i feel a lot better \o/

@CRIMSONCLAD - YOU ARE THE BEST \o/ !!!!!!

THE ABSOLUTE VERY BEST <3333333333

I love @crimsonclad's shows. The Thursday music is not a genre that I am familiar with 🧓, but she has shown me that I could almost learn to appreciate it!

FUCK PANTS!

She deserves promotion, even against her own will!

Thanks for the heads up...will have to check her out !

All hail full force!

you're very much missed and play every show. Hope you are living at full force yourself, these days~ 🖤

Thank you Crim, I look forward to getting back onboard one of these days. Life is good ... hectic but good.
