Hi, this is a generous endeavor and I applaud you for it. I only recently began following you based on a comment you made elsewhere. I am unable to pitch myself due to my upcoming move and being away for a bit, nor am I probably the best candidate even if that wasn't so.
Pay It Forward Curation Contest. It encourages with prizes for people to find a couple accounts that are newer that post quality content to help them find their place here. It has so many positive ripples as it helps with retention as well as helping people of like mind find one another and build communities.I would however like to pitch an idea to you that is outside the parameters of what you are interested in, hoping it might intrigue you nonetheless. @thedarkhorse has been running an initiative called
He has just created a new account to oversee the contest after months of running it and it is in need of SP. He is trying to slowly build it with upvotes, and a delegation such as this would make it happen so much quicker. The account he is growing for this awesome initiative is @pifc.
Thank you for any consideration you may give to them amidst the other worthy submissions.
Cool, I will check it out! I thought about that approach also. :) I hope others will notice his project here! I love that many people are looking for ways to grow the community.
Not to twist your arm in anyway, but delegations would be a very welcome boost to the Pay It Forward movement I'm trying to push here on steemit. Just a few days ago I purchased the @pifc account and right now am planning on doing a few power up type posts each week to help the account grow and build up some SBD to use for leasing SP.
Have also found someone that will give a matching 500SP delegation to @pifc if we find unpaid delegations. His way of motivating me to actually ask for help....which isn't my strong suit and I tend to try and figure things out on my own. So if you did delegate some SP it would actually trigger an extra 500SP so the benefit would be even larger.
With that account for right now it's purely about growth of the account for the next month or so. Would still use the VP to reward comments and entries to the contest but will be self voting at a much higher rate then my normal which runs around 5-8% most of the time.
If you have any questions about the vision of what I want to accomplish with @pifc feel free to message me on discord. thedarkhorse #6765. Have plans well beyond the curation contest that I feel can really help onboard new members in a fun engaging way and hopefully get more of them past the 60 day mark and over 50SP. Both I feel are very critical points in someones steemit journey.
Pay It Forward is a good thing for Steemit and I’m curious about your next plan. Good luck :).
Feel free to follow the @pifc account as I want to make a roadmap post at some point in the next few weeks as more of the PIF contest people follow the account. If you are super curious feel free to message me on discord. I'm not going to be around the next couple days, but I will reply when possible.
