Do you have a stake in Marlians on STEEM?

Tokens? Yes, I have tokens! I run three blogs and here are the tokens I have so far:

@fitinfun has 43 tokens

@bxlphabet has 34 tokens

@fitinfunfood has 31 tokens

Oh yeah! I'm on it, lol.

I really did have tokens on my list next to figure out. I do not have much knowledge about them now, and as they keep flooding in, I think I should try to get it together.

Just as I was getting ready to tackle the token monster, who should contact me? That's right, "Our Boy Terry" @surpassinggoogle!

Terry and I are friends on multiple platforms and before STEEM. I have helped him on a few projects, and he asked me to help with Marlians last night.

So of course I said yes. I am quite relieved to have a focus for this project. If I can learn Marlians, the other 50 or so tokens will be a breeze, right?

Right??

This are the steps I have taken and the info I have gathered so far:

Background

I have been a Ulogger and Untalented with Terry's other projects. I am certified and very willing to take part. I am also technically challenged.

Terry's Situation

Please know that Terry's health is poor. We both suffer from chronic disease, so we have this as common ground. His trouble is flared up bad enough for him to tell me.

The "healthy" world says, "Ok Our Boy, get a good night's sleep and see you tomorrow." But it is
NOT.
THAT.
EASY.
Terry needs a lot of rest, rehab, and recovery. Part of his issue is "doing too much." He knows this and this is why he has reached out.

Terry's Request

While Terry is at maybe 30% effectiveness on STEEM, all of the sudden we have hundreds of posts a day to the Marlians tag.

In the past, I manually curated the "Untalented" tag for Terry when it had 75-100 posts a day. This took me more than one hour to upvote maybe 30% of those posts for $1 a whack in the good old days. The posts were mostly in English and in topics I knew about such as art, travel, food, life.

Now we have 500+ posts day, not all in English, lots of sports, crypto, and other topics I know nothing about.

I scrolled MANY MANY screens in the Marlians front end last night and only got to posts 8 hours old. What a shocker that was.

https://marlians.com

Terry has been trying to curate this by himself. He is asking me to get many people to curate - me and hopefully you, your mom, and your dog.

Questions

Currently anyone can post anything to Marlians.

  • How can the flood of posts be handled to consistently reward people who post good content?
  • How can we sort?
  • How can we "enforce" rules?
  • Should we enforce rules?
  • What should Marlians become?

Terry started out very inclusive on purpose and thinks Marlians should be ulog-y eventually.

I looked at my @fitinfun Marlians numbers in steemworld and this is what I see:

I also have

I do not understand all of what I see in steemworld, but I do know I am at 100% Marlians VP. So I think I need to delegate to an alt account maybe. I am at 85% vp in STEEM now.

I am tagging you for any advice, to ask if you can jump on board, or suggest anyone else. I found you because you are on page one or the top of two on this Marlians rich list report and I know you:

https://steem-engine.rocks/tokens/MARLIANS/richlist?page=1

Here you are in order of value:

This first page and one half of the second page of the rich list has 150 people and I know few well enough to feel I can tag. @marlians also has another 650 people staking below us!

If you have just run across this post, are not tagged, and have an interest, please comment below and let me know. You are in!

Terry published his most recent Marlians post yesterday.

Marlians.com Is About 'Uniting Communities'. We Curate Posts From 14 Other Steem-Tribes, Found On 'Marlians.com'. Simply Add In '#marlians' To All Content-Types.

So here are the 14 tribes he is uniting, all of which have a 3000 Marlian stake on Page One of the rich list. Don't these alts need to vote for best results? Could we give posting keys to people?

@marlians.sports - 1,650,000 SPORTS staked (#sportstalk)
@marlians.ccc - 15,231 CREATIVECOIN staked (#creativecoin)
@marlians.spt - 127,000 SPT staked (#spt)
@marlians.mot - 50, 267 MOT staked (#mediaofficials)
@marlians.rhb - 34,964 RHB staked (#realityhubs)
@marlians.spanish - 14,682 SPACO staked (#spanish)
@marlians.jahm - 2,227 JAHM staked (#jahm)
@marlians.neoxag - 2,372 NEOXAG staked (#neoxian)
@marlians.sonic - 16,191 SONIC staked (#sonic)
@marlians.leo - 4,275 LEO staked (#steemleo)
@marlians.photo - 15,627 PHOTO staked (photography)
@marlians.pal - 3,951 PAL staked (#palnet)
@marlians.zzan - 1,000 staked (#zzan)
@marlians.aaa - 101,107 staked (#aaa)

Also -

Marlians is a tribe

Marlians is not considered a "tribe" and does not show on steempeak as such. So when I float on that little icon, I do not see the marlian votes. I think there is some way to get the tribe designation approved.

Marlians has a discord room

This room needs attention and does not have (enough) active admins. 5000 people are registered in that room.

Terry is looking for a programmer

I am not sure of the tasks.

Tagging because you might care to know this info

In Conclusion

I will keep posting on this subject until clarity comes. Please let me know if you prefer not to be tagged or know of someone else who should be tagged.

NOTE: This post in on my @bxlphabet blog as I have dApps and reviews here. My @fitinfunfood blog is for - food! And @fitinfun could post 20 times a day and not clear my backlog of minnow tips, travel and etc etc.

I am so grateful for your attention and hope to hear from you.

Sort:  

I love marlians, and was looking forward to having a ULOG site. Now that I see all of these other posts, it makes me scrunch my nose a bit - but, I can still go under the ULOG tag.

I mostly upvote certified uloggers, or mamas who are ulogging or just regular ulogs.

I bought a few thousand marlians, which is not a big USD investment, but took a lot of the steem I had earned with my blogging (which can be hard to come by!)

Since I hit 5000 I have been staking 25% of my marlian rewards and selling the other 75% to get some of my steem investment back.

But If I had a bigger stake, I would be able to upvote more. Still though, it feels like people are using all tags they can and then selling the rewards so maybe... its ok if we just upvote uloggers...

I am liking marlians the best and I am ready to help by curating uloggers and marlians posting mamas. If you have Terry's ear and decide to give me a bigger stake, that it what it will be used for.

If all those marlians accounts with tribes autofollowed terry, those of us who got an upvote from him would be getting a large bonus.

Thanks for letting me know that I am on the rich list. Whoo hoo!

actually we all want our investments to get back as soon as possible but yes it depends on trust ❤️ and we trust on our boy terry 😉

When it comes to marlians or steem, if you look closely, it isn't just about returns on investment monetarily. Many times, it has been about influence and many times where it looks like perhaps losses monetarily, where you convert the money into influence and build your noble dream, a community and move others, you never really lose. If you look at one of my recent post, you will see that i have gathered stake on more than 14 tribes and i have shared this. Even where monetarily it looks like losses. You will also see that i reach on weku and would have on whaleshares as well. These stake, non has been monetary gain but by reaching you, have i really lost? It is time to return value to human. And all my projects are just about that, returning value to human and not building on 'bulls or bears', else blockchain itself will fade and be ordinary. That is already happening. So that it doesn't fade, we need to do as you do, love someone and stay, whether bulls or bears. Just as you have done here, love and trust our boy Terry, that is what it is about. This way, the world itself adjusts. I value your comment here.

Yes it is a gradual process. ulogs.org is the main site for ulogs but cos of health issues. I need to rehab a bit before i can come back for those. There is also steemgigs.org

Marlians is something that can run more easily while i can find the ability to rehab. Even so, it is looking still impossible too but i am getting help gradually. Like the 'certified' feed, there will be a feed for 'ulogs', a standalone feed which will make it easier for you to curate ulogs but also bring awareness to ulogs. marlians is a middle ground to bring the world to know about ulogging, that is why you will notice that 'certified' uloggers are at the core. Over time, they will inculcate the ulogging movement to others. It is a slow process but you are playing a role. Ulogging is quite new, so we will have to slowly inculcate the culture using marlians. It is slow though. First is to get everyone in. Then over time, they will start to know about ulogs as we start to use the site to give ulogs and uloggers more prominence. Also see this first contest: https://www.marlians.com/marlians/@surpassinggoogle/the-first-marlians-com-tribe-contest-submit-a-ulog-quote-in-the-comment-prize-100-marlians-per-qualifying-entry

That is one way, that we will get people familiar with ulogging. You can do some of those too and i can help with prizes etc but you aren't so reachable on discord. I am so weak so things are slow but the plans will show.

marlians will connect all the sites. It will be fun but slow but it is coming along. For instance see these links:
https://marlians.com/grow
https://marlians.com/favorite-mentor

In due time, some gigs on steemgigs.org will accept MARLIANS and these gigs will be displayed on MARLIANS.

Many things are coming but it requires funding. And among other things, my funding has been slow but more importantly, i have been so weak for a long time. So development has been slow. I don't quit though.

While there are many who aren't ulogging, we can invite them to ulog via curation. Like a comment, that tells them to try ulogging as it is fun. Gradually, we can have an internet filled with humans, where 'content is queen' and refreshing constantly.

You have a bit more stake now. With curation as you have been doing. It will grow quickly.

Ulogging is so much fun and I like it so so much. I like what your plans are. I had not seen your "rich list" but now that I do, I have a goal to get at least 10,000 marlians.

I do like the human aspect of this project and will remember that. It is not so much the worth, but the value of people.


Posted via Marlians.com

Thank you alot. I am just slow cos of many years of breakdown but we will get to it.

Too, you are much closer to 10k MARLIANS now. May we all grow.


Posted via Marlians.com

I love Marlians (I have a fair bit staked to my @felt.buzz.marl curation account - whale level I think). Marlians is a tribe but I think Terry wants people to use the marlians.com front end rather than steempeak so has not authorised it on steempeak (only he could do that). I use marlians.com to see who uses the marlians tag on my felt.buzz feed. You can do this too for each of your accounts (although you would have to log out and log back in with the alternative account details):

https://www.marlians.com/@fitinfunfood/feed
https://www.marlians.com/@bxlphabet/feed
https://www.marlians.com/@fitinfun/feed

You can then see only the posts in your feed that use marlians and upvote them

You can also see posts with specific tags that use marlians eg freewrite. (I am a member of powerhousecreatives and thealliance so I curate freewrite, powerhousecreatives and thealliance tags within marlians).
https://www.marlians.com/created/freewrite

Is there a food/health related tag you always check? In that case you could replace 'freewrite' with that tag and curate those posts in marlians.

Marlians, for me, is just the next iteration of our boy Terry and his team making rewards better for all the Uloggers across the planet. Marlians.com will be a steem gateway, gathering place and launch pad for the masses.

What will become of Marlians tokens? Who knows? I am hoping it will become a nice income for every little person like me across the planet.

We are only just beginning.

Yes, all tokens that may be in stake, including the Marlians that are piling up to increase my VP

I really don't know what to say, since I do not know how steemit work. Hopefully, there would be someone who could help. 😊

I understand for sure, @gingbabida. You have some marlians and a bunch of other tokens though, so you are doing something right :)

https://steempeak.com/@gingbabida/transfers

Yes, I have tokens and I have been staking some. But actually, I really don't know much about it. I have just read that others are staking so I'm just copying from the. Hahaha! 😂

Here is an easy contest and our first Marlians.com contest. Prize is 100 MARLIANS.

After reading I was only concerned about Terry's health, I'm sorry, but I think I'm very empathetic and that's why I always liked his project, because I feel that his honest intention is to help others; what I wouldn't want is for him to cost his life. I don't know how I can help...

Thank you for your support and I hope with all my heart that the health of both of you will improve.

A hug for both of you
