I joined up 2nd August 2016, so I missed the initial excitement, but it's been a wild ride anyway. I've had so much fun here, especially at the two Steemfest I attended. There is such a great community.
I have added another five accounts for people this weekend. We need more growth with real people.
Great work you are doing to bring new users on Steem @steevc.
They will also get a birthday badge... in one year ;)
