Do you ever wonder what a witness means and what is their role on steemit ?

Thank you @steemitqa for sharing the informations and for keeping us updated.
Here is the link with the first 100 witnesses and other useful informations:

Everyone is free to choose and no one owns any explanation. Just close your eyes and vote with your heart. If someone is unhappy, that means they have to realise they have to make changes. Please keep in mind that we don't have to check their accounts, but to check if they are supportive as witnesses. It is very important to understand that not even in real life no one can survive on their own.
How the community works in my mind ; it doesn't matter how much SP (steem power) have you got in your account, if you keep being selfish, you are the one who will look after yourself, and no one else. If you don't like sharing and you are not supportive, I feel sad for you; that means you didn't "taste "the happiness of others.
I want to make Minnows to understand that all of us build steemit.com. We can't grow if we don't have the support of witnesses, as they can't survive if they don't have our votes.
It's like in real life: today you can be rich and in short time you can become homeless, and of course you can have a decent life and feel happy because you have the support of true friends.
You are free to change your votes as many times as you want.
There are witnesses like @surpassinggoogle, who makes you feel like part of the family.
If you want to support @surpassinggoogle, then vote @steemgigs as witness.
I am looking for 30 good witnesses to give my votes.
Here are the first 5 witnesses on my list:
Why are their names written down there ?
Because they are under first 50, so let's bring them in the first 50 witnesses on the list.
OUR THOUGHTS AND OUR FEELINGS BUILD OUR LIFE, SO MAKE SURE YOU ARE POSITIVE !!!
If you have more questions, here is the link to the witness discord https://discord.gg
MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICE BECAUSE YOU DO IT FOR YOURSELF ❤️
Thank you for effort creating this article. It's a big help for everyone who still has not cast their votes yet.
Happy Steeming everything!
XOXO
Once I was a newbie and I didn't know much, but now it's my turn to teach others what I learned. Thanks for dropping by
Totally love this. So many people are so selfish to upvote but will be crying foul when you don't upvote them. Nice write up and i am following you right away.
That's odd! I'm not a witness.
Lol, but you should become one, I saw the support that you offered to other Steemians
I still owe you a special thank you. So are so awesome for not losing your human. One time long ago, i wrote this post, it will help you understand my comment here better. It is a lengthy post:

Strange... Somehow I felt the same in many occasions, and one of the reasons why people think to end up their life is because they think they have no reason to fight. People should understand that they have to fight for their dreams first; if you have no dreams, you don't feel alive. Once you join steemit, you can't just "let it go" because of the people that you get a connection with. And you keep talking with them and they just don't let you down and don't let you go. It is something that I appreciate about steemit, because here you have the chance to make real friends and you just don't feel alone anymore.
Your efforts to help peoples selecting right witness is really great. It will surely help many, including me ☺
Wow the other day I was thinking maybe I should become a witness :)
Early on I was offered by Someguy123 to do so. I need to revisit it. Thanks!
Hahaha you have been here for long and you are awesome in community. The world may not know but even steem needs more of community-type witnesses
love your post @artaddict!! upvoted and resteemed. <3
Wow! There is so much to read, evey post has got I link attachment in it. Most of them are full of highly technical coding decoding nodes, however thnx for keep this post simple and including link to these posts explaining role of witness.
Thank you @wovlou. I did try to explain it as simple as possible on beginner's level. More posts will come and more examples
I already done for one steemigigs and rest I will do @artaddict
This is really interesting, appreciate all your help. Hope you follow me too.

STOPthough this post does explain a bit about witnesses through the use of links and photos, you haven't presented a clear case as to why someone would vote for the particular witness you recommend. what do they do as a witness? why do you recommend them? saying that they are like family is generic without any specifics.
They are the witnesses that I got the chance to chat with them and they explained more about their plans for the platform.
After every 10 witnesses, I will explain more in details about what they do.
i dont understand why you would not do that in the present post where its relevant. or in one big post and forget the other nine. just sayin.
I used it as an example. I already said in the post that I own no explanation to anyone and everyone is free to choose.
Amazing post really nice.....I like it.thx for share😍
Been a while @artaddict but since you do this i will have to do my voting too, but you haven't really explained what a witness means. And why we have to be a witness or to vote, pls kindly explain.
Hi there
Put this way
A witness will take care of the network for us
Basically he is Mining Steem
Same for Bitcoin, for Bitcoin to exist you need miners to take care of the blockchain and process transactions
One of the links from the post explains what a witness is. The reason why I didn't say why I choose for those witnesses is because I don't want to influence anyone. This is my choices.
