Dear Steemians,
I hadn't posted anything on my YouTube channel in a long time (over 3 months), and that's obviously because I prefer to be on Steemit & Dlive =).
Today I've decided to make a video explaining to my followers what I've been up to for the past 3 months since I didn't post anything on my YouTube channel. I made this video with the hopes of convincing them to join our fabulous community instead and get rewarded for their content.
Here's the link to the YouTube video:
Let's see how many people sign up =)
My video is at DLive
Why wasn't I following you? /boggle There are definitely some bugs to be worked out here still. BJJ? You roll there in Panama?
heyyy no worries hehe =) Yes, I roll here in Bocas del Toro. Are you into BJJ?
I used to train at Charlottesville BJJ under Gordon Emery, but scheduling issues and me continually getting hurt made me stop. I miss training though. I was only a white belt with a long way to go, but other white belts were being way too rough and causing injuries to me. Then my wife went back to college, so my entire schedule was shot (not complaining about her college and thrilled she's going).
ahhh yeah I am extremely careful with very fresh white belts, especially with guys. They tend to use 100% strength and don't know how to manage it. I got hurt like that before, and am not repeating the mistakes, so I simply don't roll with them until they get some more experience. Better to avoid injuries that way...
I want to train, but I cannot afford to be hurt over and over. The last time I got injured the instructor was there to see it and rightfully called my partner out for it. I was still injured though.
People tend to try and roll with people of equal skill and experience too, so new people like me get stuck with other new people. Then I get kneed in the ear, my arm is tweaked, etc. It's just not a good situation.
The only option I've considered is paying a higher belt to roll with me even though they normally would not, and then I'd learn in a safer environment and more quickly.
By the way, I was following you. I had the bug though where it says I'm not when I am. When I clicked to follow you, it actually unfollowed you. /sigh I have, I think, successfully refollowed you. I knew something was weird because there was absolutely zero reason for me to not still be following you! haha Goodnight!
np LOL
Maybe the next time you post a video on dlive , you can make a brief YouTube video giving it an intro to the video. This way you link your YouTube viewers to dlive.
Making an intro is a good idea.. =) thanks for your comment!
For some reason I’m having issues on my phone with dlive a few days ago .... but I’ll look out for the videos :)
Great summary of the Steem platform @evecab!
thanks @cahlen =)
She does it all. Including promoting our home platform for those who will be the future!
You go girl!
ahahaha thanks @zekepickleman =)
Totally agree, Facebook shows more than ever advertising... Still, I think it's difficult for me to close it because I promote my businesses and projects there... Otherwise I'd love to close it... any suggestion?
What software are you editing your videos with?
HI @runicar, I'm using AVS video editor =)
damn, was hoping you used premiere. Just learned how to remove echo today, thought it would be nice to share it with you as there is a lot of echo in your audio. But great video anyway, it's really important to share the word about Steemit far and wide :)
thanks Runicar! I might have that option (not sure!), but I'm still learning how to use it=) Thanks for your feedback!
