RE: A Witness Pay It Forward Initiative

in #payitforward7 years ago

Thank you so very much for proposing to delegate with a "pay it forward" focus in mind! It's posts like this and people like you that make this platform what it is!

strength to go the extra mile.I have been fortunate enough to receive delegation from @hitmeasap for my work with @asapers, and from @abh12345, for my achievements in his Curation Leagues (which I see @maverickinvictus refers to here as well). Both are leaving it with me for the time being, with of course the understanding that I continue doing what I'm doing; I of course would never imagine doing anything different, with or without their delegations, although the extra SP certainly is appreciated and gives me the voting

If pay it forward if your focus, then anyone whose actions reflect that could be considered. For example, I see that @thedarkhorse is proposed a contest that mirrors your ideas, then delegating to him for the weeks that his contest runs, seems ideal.

pay it forwardI mentioned @asapers, which is a group whose aim is to curate undervalued, unnoticed posts and @hitmeasap has always had the mentality from the groups' inception. I curate for them, along with @insideoutlet and @shai-hulud, and I know that the @asapers account is working diligently to get their SP to 500 to of course earn the coveted slider. Your delegation could work wonders there, but maybe it could have a more extended shelf-life for their purpose.

bill where a bigger and lengthier delegation would benefit the platform.@newbieresteem(started by @davemccoy and @mudcat36), another group I'm involved with has the same mentality; they work tireless to welcome, educate, and support new and not-so-new members. They also fit your

I guess my short answer to you (which is ironic considering the length thus far:), is that there's no short answer. Choose based on your criteria and then ask them what they need and why it's a good idea for you to delegate to them. This is all a much more difficult way for you, as opposed to you

delegat[ing] 30,000 SP to one person for months (it was simpler/easier to just do that and not have to think about it too much :P).

But what I'm proposing would certainly make a difference for a lot of people here who are working selflessly to do exactly what you're proposing...paying it forward!

Thank you ;)

Thank you for the well thought out suggestions. I will have to take more time to think about this. There are many responses that I am only going through now, 6 days later. A busy Sunday ;)

Oh no worries! I read through the comment thread and thought to myself that you certainly have your work cut out for you:) Regardless of your decision, I want to reiterate how much I appreciate people like yourself, who are willing to selflessly give to make this platform beautiful. I'm know that whatever you decide, someone(s) will benefit greatly!

Get your pot of coffee on and go to it haha
