G’day fellow Steemians,
I should start off with the fact my name is Max and i’m an Aussie born on the 10/05/1997 quite an avid gamer myself, i am currently in development of my own game which i will most likely release more details about on here at a later date, and have worked in I.T since i was 17 but have recently moved states so currently unemployed.
User @kodieamos introduced me to the platform and personal friend of mine and i always followed crypto currencies but have never heard of this platform until 4 days ago when i immediately signed up and had eagerly wait around until i was verified, lurking everyone here.
Today marks my first day on the Steemit and the start of a gaming blog me and @kodieamos are working and will soon be working on releasing more gaming related articles
Still learning about Steemit so if anyone has some tips please let me know if not i hope to see you all around the site
Make sure to follow me @Juicy-Shark and @kodieamos
Welcome to steemit im new myself
Hey! Welcome to Steemit. Nice introduction post! Hope you have a good time.

Nice to meet you, @juicy-shark! Welcome to the Steemit Community, wish you good luck and a good start, ive send you a small tip and followed you, hope you have an amazing day! :)
Hey thanks a bunch!
Welcome fellow Aussie!
Hey Max! Looking forwards to your posts! Welcome :D see you around!
Hello and welcome. I checked out @kodieamos. You wrote that you recently moved states. Where'd you move to please?
There are a ton of other webpages to help you with Steemit. Here are some of the best for beginners:
https://steemd.com/ (This site is used to keep track of your voting power and other stats. You do not want to run out of voting power, and you only get so much per day. I keep my voting power around 80% for example.)
https://steem.makerwannabe.com/ (This site will tell you who follows you, who unfollows you, and who mutes you. It is great for meeting new people too. I regularly check it to see who has followed me to see if I should follow them back.)
https://steemit.chat/ (This site is the official chat webpage for Steemit. There are Discord channels too, but I usually stick to the official site. Come in to network and meet new friends. You can directly message people there too, so it makes it easier to communicate with your closest friends.)
Oh yeah, there are a lot of bots on here. If you see a cookie cutter reply, especially to your intro post, it is almost certainly a bot. Check the account's reputation. If it is low, I would recommend just ignoring them. Everything is public on Steemit, so you can go look at an account's comments and replies. Are they all the same? It's a bot.
Adding photos to your account as a new Steemian may be confusing at first too. The easiest way it to click to "Submit a Story." Once in there, use the built in Steemit tool to upload an image from your computer. Below the posting window, you will see "Insert images by dragging & dropping, pasting from the clipboard, or by selecting them." Click on the blue text. Once the image is uploaded, you can copy and paste the link into your account settings.
Verifying your identity is very important because it will get you more support and people will trust you more. The best way to verify is to link back to your Steemit account by using another public social media account. For example, I posted my Steemit articles from here through my Twitter account. Another person posted their Steemit information on their Facebook account. Some people will even post a video of themselves writing out their account information since that cannot be Photoshopped. The more famous a person is or the more valuable their content is, the more important it is that they verify. If a new account falls within those two categories and fails to verify, it may get blacklisted.
Again, welcome, and I've followed you! If you have any questions about getting started, look me up on the chat site.
Hey @finnian thanks heaps for the lengthy reply! I was in NSW but moved to QLD Australia, ill have to make use of the chat will probably be the easiest way to make some new friends. At the moment i don't use many other social media sites other than the obvious facebook but saw this site to be a great start for me to blog / start creating content so ill have to set up some accounts else where and just post throughout them all trying to lead any followers back to here which will hopefully be my new main platform.
Again thanks heaps for the tips man it means quite a bit
Verifying through your existing Facebook works. :) Don't over do the self-voting too by the way. It is frowned upon in replies especially. I rarely ever self-vote to avoid that issue entirely. Your votes are how the daily crypto is distributed. The more Steem Power a person has, the more of the crypto being given out they control. When you upvote therefore, you're giving it out to yourself. People who do that a lot are usually heavily ridiculed.
Welcome to Steemit! :)
