Rule No. 3: Upvote = Steem Dollar. NoVote/Downvote = no Steem Dollar.

Downvoted: buying upvotes is cheating

I didn't know there were rules.... sorry officer. Fixed it for ya!

And here's a shiny Steem Dollar.... because you care!

ah ok ... maybe starting to make sense... sorry for being dumb....

He probably imagined it,but he doesn't care about it apparently. Here's an upvote for you.

Thank you for being a defender good intentions!

I did not see it as buying upvotes, the post actually made me smile for the fact he was sharing and not being selfish... for me its not about the money it was about the fact someone was doing an act of kindness...? paying in back to the steemit society i guess you do not agree? please tell me how you do see it? as a tiny little insignificant fish who is learning i am genuinely interested to know

"Upvote = Steem Dollar" is a statement about buying upvotes. I'm not judging OP's intentions but his action. If OP's intention was genuinely to giveaway Steem dollars without expecting a return, downvoting his post should be harmless to him.

You must be new around here. :)

No upvotes = never to be seen by anyone except Jacques Cousteau.

Now, Jacques is a great guy and all, but he didn't help me out on Steemit. So why should I write a post for Jacques?

If you need the post to have visibility avoid any wording that suggests that you are buying votes in your future giveaway posts. We want people to vote for content they think is good and be rewarded for helping promoting good posts. A direct reward for upvote shortcuts the curating process and diverts rewards from content producers and curators which is a bad thing for the network.

I agree with everything you said.

And curating gets you $0.001. I'll give you $1. If I had an ulterior motive I wouldn't tell you. But people like you are why Steemit will survive. And thrive. Well, and people like me. It's a ying and yang. But whatever, thank you for caring, caring is awesome!

Without upvotes no one will see this, and if no one sees this, I can't share. Only whale upvotes will get you paid and I assumed, correctly, that I would not get any whale love for this. I think recursive has good intentions too.

Rule #8: I (altoz) will also share my Steem Dollars from this post. Evenly divided among those who upvote.

Damn this just got serious! @altoz you da man!

  • I second you and @johnsmith & will do the same! Anything I make from this comment or this post I will be giving out! Pay it forward.

I decided to do one better, I just donated $1000 to St Jude Children's Hospital! I am also going to donate every SteemDollar I make from this post: https://steemit.com/donations/@blueorgy/i-will-donate-every-steemdollar-earned-from-this-post-to-st-jude-children-s-research-hospital

Let's change the world!

Have an upvote! Lots of steem hoarders out there. Why not spread it around a little?


I love this place. And you.

I challenge you to donate as well! This place is AWESOME!

@johnsmith better yet you can go onto their website right now and donate the $100! Or if you need you can transfer the $100 to my account andI will use my cc to make the donation for you. I'll add the confirmation here :)


How about I send you $100 and you donate it?
It will mean 100 less Steemians get $1.
But you sound like nice a person.
So I will trust you.
This one time.


I like the way you think. Have a dollar!

LOVING IT!


It's amazing how generous people become, in the face of a sudden increase of wealth. :) I ever hit a 7K post in a week, I'll be doing the same as you. Thank you!

Keep it Clean!

And this is why giving is better than getting! You just stole my punchline, and it makes me happy.


There you again. That's like 30 cents per letter. I wrote entire posts for less.

@johnsmith is for realz


This is going to be like an auction, isn't it? Without the fun little paddles.

Just below the fold under "hot". Rapidly approaching the 100 mark.


Put on your party dress!

That is also nice of you. The one thing that amazes me is that some people are happy to share their success where as many are out for themselves. Well done to you too... i have much admiration for you both..

Have an upvote! You seem like a nice person.

Thank you.. i try to be :) and so are you xx

Have an upvote man! Have loads of it!! :D The more the better for everybody! :)


I think you're catching on!


Thanks for being here!

generous god

I think you're the $11 winner?


Thank you! I would have completely missed it.

Front page of "hot"!!!

I believe so too, kind sir!!











I'll take you word for it! If anyone else has an problem with aish winning, take it up with aish and altoz. See how a community works? It's nice. Altoz and aish are also now volunteered to tell me when we hit 1001 and cause I'm going to have no idea. This is crazy fun! Minnows FTW!

Thank you so much! Can't believe i got $11 wow!!! so..so.. grateful!!
Once I am in a position I am going to do the same :)


Ooops, now it's 12!

Rule No. 7: I can defecate as needed.

Yes, everyone should be able to excrete feces as needed. But why must this be a rule?

Cos its his post and he said so?


I like how you think! And yes. So very yes.


Just wanted to be clear, no surprises. I value my alone time.

What would you do for 1000 comments?


Let's find out...

Is it decent brandy? you can not have cheap brandy it is awful.. the good stuff or none :)


Let's say its somewhere between awful and decent. I'm a middle-class Steemian citizen.

I agree with champagne and always up for a party :)

Here we have a very good person that treats his colleagues very well,well done sir.

I think you are a secret party animal mr smith !

Steemit Cat Approves this Message


I don't like cats. But I like Steemit. So maybe it balances out.

So then if I ask you for $2 Steem Dollars... will you give me $1, $2, or $3?




But only this one time.

Thanks man, I hope you catch a whale!


That would be a really fun photo op!

Hay not bad, give some steemdollars away & get some back from votes & posts. But you really out did yourself in a great way of showing people how to make a great post! Great job. well done! & thanks for the lesson !

Rule #1 dont talk about Rule #1!
