I am amazed at how much power Steemit has given new people that join. We have new members and there votes are 0.01 now!
I wasn't really in for the money when I joined Steemit because I just liked blogging in general. I've kept a few Wordpress blogs but not even come to the level of earning there and so it was just like a virtual diary of sorts.
Yet here in Steemit it is indeed amazing that I could earn and as cliche as it sounds I stayed because of the community and have been helping out new people as well.
You are right STEEMING ON!
