Hello All,
You may know me by now, but I wanted to take the chance to Re-Introduce the real me to the Community. I am a 33 Year old Guy, I am the Father of 2 Beautiful Boys and have been Happily married for the past 10 years. When I initially started on Steemit, I had a whole different outlook and it caused a huge disruption in my posts and Gave the Community a really bad look at who I am. My name is Tony and I am not the Dick I portrayed in the beginning. I believe I had some really good ideas at first, but was so impatient with not getting much attention, I started Reposting them over and over again.
*My first Run in With a Cheetah
During this Reposting Era I began to see messages from an account called @cheetah, during this time I had no clue about Bots or what they did for the Community. I simply ignored the Warnings and Continued to post the same thing over and over again. Inevitably I was Blacklisted and Downvoted on everyone of my posts. I was Furious and Rebelled the only way I knew how and tried to Slander the Bot in an attempt to gain a Following of others who were outcast. Little did I know, I was the Main problem. I began to look back at my posts and realized what I was doing was not just looking for a bigger Audience, but was pushing dedicated readers away with my Spamming. I learned my Lesson and have Fought back from the depths of a Flat lined Reputation to Finally being Visible again. I know I am only at 5 Currently, but those who know how important a Good reputation is, also know that it takes a lot to build one from Scratch. I am up for this Challenge.
My new Goal For Steemit
I am approaching this site a totally different way and have decided to take the mistakes I have made and plan on using them as an example of what not to do. I learn from my Mistakes and for the most part thrive from the Experience. My posts are now designed to both suggest new and inventive ideas and try to helping any way I can. I am the Owner of Two different Websites "One that is Solely Viral Content", so I believe I can bring a lot to the table here, it is just getting the Opportunity.
Special Thanks to Both @anyx and @neoxian
I thank these two for giving me a chance...
Here's to hoping you make the most of your second chance. :)
I thank you for the reply and confidence.
I am all about forgiveness and second chances. Here is yours. You will make the most of it, I'm sure. Give it your all, this is a great platform of ideas.
