Cryptobeard is one of the many Greeters you will find in the PALnet discord group. We are a collection of members that have vowed to help new members find their way with getting around with the sign-up process, and to help answer any questions we can. Okay Cryptobeard let's light this candle!
Q: What is your Steemit username and where are your from?
A: @cryptobeard.. I'm from the UK, but have been fortunate to live all over the globe. I'm from a county called Devon, which is in the South West of the UK and it is know for being lush and green with quiet, sleepy villages and towns. We are know for being quite 'Farmy'.
Q: So how did you find your way on to Steemit?
A: I've been doing Internet marketing for a long time, and found Steemit last year actually, but I have some 'down time' going on at the moment, so thought I would take a closer look and see what's going on.
I wish I had joined sooner now, lol
Q: What kind of internet marketing? Is that what you like to write and share on your blog?
A: I am in to Self Help/Motivation, Affiliate Marketing and Network Marketing
As I am writing my Intro post at the moment, I can say that as an ecclectic person, I want to write about anything that interests me. It's nice not to be constrainted by a particular niche and write about what you like, or just find and comment on good material by others. I am interested in far too many things, but Steemit gives everyone the oportunity to dabble in as many flavours they like. I guess if someone likes your writing style, they will (hopefully) like anything you publish.
Q: How did you hear about PALnet and what has your experience been like so far?
A: I saw a post by @aggroed (I think) about minnow support, and thought it would be a great place to learn and meet some new people in a similar situation as myself. Because Steemit's verification process can be lengthy, I had to wait 4 days to be accepted, so before I did anything I read posts, made a mental note of names to read more on, and rinsed the FAQ's, so when I joined PALnet and the Discord room I had a good headstart on most, so I found it easier to help others. I made it a little mission of mine to help as much as I can as often as I can on my Steemit journey as we should all be in this for the long haul and not just the sprint to cash out.
I have Loved PALnet so far, as you know I have been very active in the Discord room and I have been helping tons of people on a daily basis, and that is what gives me satisfaction, the ability to help others, who in turn will help others themselves. It's a 'Pay It Forward' mentality in the minnowsupportproject, which is very similar to what I do with Internet Marketing.
Q: Give me one piece of advice for a new Steemian reading this interview.
A: I would say once you have signed up, or before, read through as much help and support material you can. Join PALnet on Discord and get involved. Start following people that interest you and engage on their content with solid comments. This would give people a great foundation to grow, and they may even earn from their comments to give them the quick start boost the want.
Q: Awesome advice Cryptobeard. Where can one follow you off of Steemit?
A: I was going to provide my facebook, but to be honest, I havn't logged in for over a month, lol
I will be starting a YouTube channel relevant to my antics on Steemit though to build Steemit awareness/
Q: Fantastic, and finally are you in support of the earnings from this post going to @minnowsupport?
A: Absolutely! MinnowsUnite!
Q: Thanks for the interview, Cryptobeard. I dare say you knocked it out of the park!
A: Thanks for picking me!

This is just freaking awesome. I'm seeing some of the best, most relevant content coming out of this group. SO PROUD to be part of it.
Absolutely! Joining the group has led to my last few ideas, and another BIG one (I hope) that will start this weekend.
this is who I got to know as a greeter at Discord "I have been helping tons of people on a daily basis, and that is what gives me satisfaction, the ability to help others, who in turn will help others themselves."
It's great to see more of the flesh and bones of a man/woman/fitb. I'm looking forward to more of this @swelker101...can't resist the urge to resteem...so I won't.
~may all hatred cease...let there be peace~
You have been a bonus to the organization. The humor that flows brings a smile to my face.

Great idea to organize and conduct this interview series @swelker101! We certainly have a lot of cool and talented people in the PAL Discord that the entire Steemit community should meet and learn more about. Thanks for sharing this!

Great stuff dude, nice idea to get to know the people behind their avatars
I love our community, I have met many interesting, helpful and supportive people - yes, even you ;-)
My rise this past week or so has been in large part because of my involvement with the project
Nice interview. Keep it up.
Thanks for picking me to interview first, at least I'm out of the way now. I enjoyed sitting down to chat with you, and look forward to more of your interviews with other PALnet members.
