Reaching 7000 followers and more Steemit related chat
Hi all!
The agenda for today's Vlog from Mauritius is as follows:
7000 Followers and 8000 SP!
Thank you all so much for your support! Too many names to mention here but I've dropped a few in! I forgot to mention our bet @surfermarly - well done for calling it right!
8000 Steem Power is just amazing. I've bought about 3000 in total and so this is thanks to so many people who have supported my content over the past year.
Self-voting and Vote collusion
I've been asked by a few people recently if Self-voting is bad, and so I wanted to give my opinion bearing in mind that a lot of my Steem Power is delegated to me, either for free or for very little cost.
Vote collusion is everywhere, between small and large accounts. Is it a case of anything goes? And how good is this for the platform in the long term?
The Curation Leagues
I hope by now you are aware that a submit a post each week that gives anyone the chance to win some Crypto, just by curating here on Steemit (or busy.org etc).
If you wish to be in with the chance of winning a prize, please let me know on the weekly Curation League post. Cheers!
Thank you again for your support, and have a great day!

Thank you very much!
Congratulations sir, 7000 followers is a great feet.
Cheers Sami!
10K...
Congrats brotha!!!
Thanks man for all your support!
Oh shit man you're big! :D
Congratulations! You certainly deserve it man! Really happy for you and hope one day to reach those numbers as well :D
I'm not sure how, but a post a day for the last 4/5 months seems to have helped. Thank you!
Noted... but 7K in 4-5 months? People say I grow fast and I got 1700 in 2 months, that is a fraction.
I've been active for a year, but things really took off about 4/5 months ago. Probably 4000 followers since then and the same in SP.
I think my 5000 follower vlog is 5 weeks old. Your progress has been fast too, nice!
Wow, great going man, keep on charging up those numbers... Once you get to Whaledom your votes will be tasty so Im wishing you the best :P
500k SP is many years away but thanks for the encouragement! 😁
It's going to go like this - @fulltimegeek gets chosen to be a crypto advisor in the White-House and he's going to go "You know what, I don't want to log in Steemit anymore. I'm going to give it all to that guy who does the numbers, he knows what every steward does and holds them accountable."
Mega-Transfer and BOOM, Whaledom.
Then you go "You know what? It's my money now bitches!" Then you power down, cash out and leave a finger up on steepshot as your last post.
......oooooor I'm just trippin :D
hahaha
I couldn't cope under the pressure of that SP!
Wow this is a great feat, 7000 followers and 8000sp is really massive and I can only hope to be like you in future.
About the question you said people often ask you about self voting. I dont think your answer is clear enough(lolzz). You still sounded in parables.
haha :D
Dammit! Time for another vlog!?
Grande Asher! Sei un mito!!! (Sorry today in italian, haha).
I love your accent man ;-)
Ciao ciao
Steemitri Il Manichino
Thank you @steemitri!
I need to improve my pronunciation as some of the words are probably lost in the accent!
Gratzie!!!
Congratulations on the large number of followers and keep the contents coming. Self voting in moderate amounts should be allowed so that people will be incentivized to hold more SP. But moderate is a subjective word. Mauritius background in your vlog looks like an everyday background in most parts of my country. I guess the only difference may be the temperature :)
Thank you @greenrun!
The temperature is deceptively hot here at present, it's best to stay near a fan and the cool drinks!
Week 2 no self-votes has begun, as you say moderate is subjective :)
How hot is the temperature? Currently rocking 32 °C or 90 °F.
31 I saw earlier so quite similar.
In England this weather would be discribed as swealtering and muggy!
It's high, but this is the night temperature. The day has like +4 of that.
Boss @abh12345 you earned it. Your different analysis on Steemit have become something I look forward to everyday. Have you heard about the saying: seen a man who's diligent in his service, he shall stand before kings and not before mean men.
Keep up the good work.
Thank you very much, I did not know of this saying and I appreciate you sharing it here 😁
Hahahahaha. That's from the Bible Proverbs 22 verse 29. You are really diligence with your business and that's why you stand before kings.
Well deserved 7000 followers and 8000 sp. The work you do for SOG brought to my attention the power of engagement and I have been a fan ever since. Those number crunching and analysis is just awesome.
You, fulltimegeek and the rest of the SOG is proof that by giving more we can gain more in terms of curation rewards, engagement and the growth of Steem.
I agree on your take on vote collusion for bigger accounts just circle jerking each other for massive amounts for the 4-5 people. It's short term and does not really help the platform but it's their choice. Not everyone can be expected to have an altruistic view of the use of the gifteconomy of Steemit. Yet you guys are proof that it could be used for better things.
You sir have my respect as I tip my imaginary hat to you.
Thank you kindly, very encouraging comments 😊
FTG has set an example, and I suspect many larger accounts know what's going on but just aren't interested in following suit. Business is business for many, and shortsightedness seems rife.
Nevermind, we shall continue doing our bit and hope that slowly, others decide to follow suit.
Thank you!
Congratulations on reaching another milestone @abh12345 and also for adding some more SP.
It's always nice to have someone experienced to answer our queries and you are one such person to whom we can always contact.
Hope to see you soon with 10K followers as you reached the goal of 7K from 5K in a short time.
Best wishes for whatever you do.
Thank you!
Glad to help when I can, and yes the counts have gone up quickly since the last time i vlogged about them.
I hope for a successful year for us all.
You are most welcome @abh12345.
Yes, hopefully 2018 brings more success as Steemians and provides more energy to help others.
