As I've mentioned before these are a great group of people. I'm glad to have them on the platform. They are activists of the highest caliber. I'm excited to see the community that they build here on the Steem platform and where they take their movement.
Welcome our newest Steem family members!

Truth is, I see many people doing meetups and dumping new users here on the platform without even figuring for a way to help them develop or grow in earnest, I think this is great welcoming the unfuckers, nice here sir @aggroed
I've gotten a few people to join with moderate success, but watching them lose motivation based on lack of being seen and lack of community(for brand new people it's tough when you don't know anyone or haven't used discord, especially those who aren't tech savvy). My upcoming goal is to help them develop their blogs and understand how to best grow and promote. It's only a few people so far, but I feel like growing a community with both new people I meet on steemit, and people I know in real life that I think could succeed this early on the site, is really important for long term success of my blog and steemit in general.
I can certainly see how that could be a problem. Maybe Steemians need to organize an "internship" of sorts. Like @Aggroed has done with our UnFuckers group, give newbies an opportunity to partner up with an experienced Steemer to show them the ropes.
Another idea might be to have a kiddie pool area, where newbies can put their posts- and ask experienced steemers to check out the "kiddie pool" area once a day, to resteem a post from the pool- a post that they feel deserves to be resteemed and be recognized as a good post content. This would encourage getting new material out into the greater Steem community AND would also encourage newbies to work hard to produce GOOD material. win win in my opinion!
not a bad idea. but if you ask me, that kiddie pool would be so full, maybe one of 10k kiddies :) ...would be resteemed
Ya, those are good ideas, I like the mentor idea best. I am trying to help out whoever I get to join, but don't have a ton of time otherwise. I just posted this article for newbies, hopefully it helps
You the man! Keep em' comin! Welcome unfuckers!
I think this year will be crazy for steemit. it seems to be reaching a critical mass of people and has momentum going for it externally. e.g. Youtube fucking with their monetization platform... I've only been on for a month, yet in that month I've had independent people talk to me about steemit at the office. Feels a little like when I first joined twitter....about to take off in a really huge way.
Lately I see youtube as video platform for kids. They like to watch commercial music and some funny videos, which will never be banned. For someone who wants to hear or learn some real time facts, youtube is not a website I would recommend
What's an unfucker and why are there so many of them?
So many?! Nah darlin... only about 40 of the UU group have followed me over here so far.... But I'm still workin on the other 2480 of them :D
... don't worry we don't bite, and for the most part we're pretty fun to have around!

Thanks for the reply, but what I'm asking is what is an unfucker? lol, never heard of it before. :)
i'm one. unfuckers unfuck the fucked up things. in the world. in their own unique way. Dani will likely post the unfucked rules. Peace.
Wow! I seriously need to join this unfuckers crew
Remember how I described them yesterday?
I said that their name sound like the I don't give a fuck crew who in the actual sense doesn't give a rat ass or shit about anything or even that happens.
But then you said that this particular people are special - you said they care in contributing, sharing, touching and impacting lives and making this platform better, bigger and successful.
Oh yes! that's the type of people I like - the I can do and action people.
Welcome to steemit the unfuckers
Happy Steeming
good job ..boss
I also want to join but How i can join this please tell Thanks.
Welcome all you lovely people!
You may rest assured that we shall greet you with a great and varied amount of Fuckery for your unfucking pleasure!
Please enjoy your stay.
Unfuck on my friends, unfuck on.
How i can join you?
wow lucky them, i am feeling like i should join the unfuckers crew
Hello and welcome
What form of Activism do they get involved in?
How can one participate?
Darlin, our group- UnFuckers Unite- are united in our goal to UnFuck it- What the "IT" is, is completely dependent on each and every person and what their focus is. Some of us are Unfuckers of everything. some are focused on Law and judicial matters, some on the illegality of the IRS and the "tax man", some on everything to do with health, some on everything to do with education, some on revealing religious control mechanisms, some on shining a light on the corruption in government,... but I think I can say, with close to 100% certainty, that ALL are about FIXING whatever is FUCKED.

Very well said :) There are probably a ton of Unfuckers already unfucking things without realizing they are Unfuckers! I about spat out my coffee when you came up with that in your youtube video back in the day! But it fit's perfectly!
EXACTLY!!! #UnFucker isn't a "Private group", it's a way of life :D
d
Well example I would like to see capitalism UnFucked with something like Zeitgeist or Ubuntu movements are talking about.
That's great @daniarnold, Let's unfuck it!!!
You're all welcome friends hope you all have a memorable steemit experience cos mine has been wonderful so far
Oh have to read your previous post to get the idea of who unfuckers really are :)
I am just going to guess, I picture them like an old timey street gang like the Sharks or the Jets
Welcome new members. You are going to enjoy a new world full of fun, exchange ideas, make new friends and learn new things along the line you will make some cool cash but the most important thing is that you have to enjoy yourselves and make a lot of fun.

Hi there, slacker unfucker here, LOL. I came in the long way, it took a week to hear back. Then I sat on the approval for a month and finally activated late last night. Please be patient with me everyone, I am a slow learner when it comes to this stuff. Meow.... :)
