Corret, I created this account 2-3 months ago, forgot my password after a couple of days and 2 weeks ago I remembered it again, my 10 SP had increased to 26, and I had only posted a few comments and posts for a couple of days (almost all were unnoticed)
but the point I wanna make is, I invested what I could into steemit (bought at 60 cents and on other account cause I didn't remember pw then yet) but it wasn't much. I have lately made over 5x what I invested in 2 weeks by being active, helping out with whatever I could and contributing my time to the website and its success. Even if you hit a rough start, with more people, remember that it if you do your best and contribute, it won't go unnoticed.
Also remember that your posts are like youtube videos, you can get a constant streem of income when users vote for your old posts/comments that you may have forgotten they even existed. :)
Also remember to update your passwords!!
thanks for sharing, upvote
@acidyo , great advice and inspirational story. Plan to emulate as much as I can. Thanks.
Im not 100%, but i think steem time ran faster a few months ago because it was the early mining stage. If youre just getting interest (as opposed to blogging and curation rewards), it should only be doubling annually, i think.
