Thank god I'm not the only one that thinks that it's abusive to resteem just for the sake of taking part... I don't want to clutter my own blog page either

I had never seen it that way.
But I think you guys have a point.
So how do get your friend to know about the initiativesame you are excited about?
Personally I would tell them, I mean on my chat groups and so forth. I am not against resteeming, I'm against making it a condition. If I see a really interesting initiative I want people to know it, true, but for example I plan on posting ideas on trading and investment here in steemit... and most likely the people who will follow me are the people who are interested in those ideas (and many bots searching for upvotes). Resteeming is posting something on my feed for all my followers, and if they're interested in contests, they're sure to look at the contest feed and besides think on how you would feel by receiving tons of the same contest on your feed?. Maybe once Steemit changes how that works and shows the post only once no matter how often the people you follow resteem it it will be different, but right now I don't like forcing people to resteem in order to participate in a contest, it's just my opinion, though.
Thanks.
Opinion noted.
We will be looking into that.
It has been the steemit way. But I like innovation.
Do you runnung any contests yourself?
I like you, mate. You think in the right direction. And with "Right direction", I mean the same direction I am looking to.
I should have probably just replied to all of these comments in this parent in one big comment, but now I am commited to answering individually.
I answered that post in my most recent post as well. Ignore the shameless self-plugging, give it a look if you are interested.
TL;DR version would be to just actually combine or replacing resteeming by actually writing a blogpost about anothers post or the poster himself. I do that once every week, but I consider to do it once a day because it fits the spirit of #upvoteplankton and #minnowuprising.
In that case, you may end up loving my most recent blog post. I wanted to post about this topic for quite a long time, so I am glad to finally had the muse for doing so.
At long last.
