RE: [The Uncomfortable, Convenient Truth.] "Don't You Like Me?"/"Pls High Vote." [My Voting Truth]

I have followed you and the @asapers. Is the @asapers basically a project that resteems others posts to help them along in the community or have I got the wrong end of the stick?

Thank you very much for your comment and the follows. I appreciate it!

The @asapers is not about resteems, even though it looks like it at this initial phase. This project is very new and there are still many things to figure out before we're able to go full speed so to speak. The @asapers is basically like OCD and other similar curation teams, but even though there's a handful of superb curation teams out there, I wanted to do something differently and I was striving to do more than I've been doing. - Which is the reason I launched the #asapers.

The #asapers are 6 people I have delegated my own Steem Power too, (5, as one of them already invested in Steem Power!), and none of the team members are huge dolphins or whales. We're just "the little guys" with great motivation and similar beliefs, and we will strive to help and support newcomers to make a difference on Steemit. We want to encourage people so they will stay instead of eventually leave Steemit in despair. And I (we) believe that we can improve the overall experience on Steemit by focusing on the newcomers. Which we will be doing in similar ways as other curation teams, but we will also do things differently... As my initial thoughts are to do something unique.

Sorry for the vague answer, but I cannot reveal to many details regarding this right now. We will shortly make an official announcement. :)

That's brilliant to hear you are all for helping the newcomers (like myself). I think with so many established steemians here it can be a minefield for newcomers so anything that focuses on helping them will ultimately benefit the community as a whole. Thanks for taking the time to reply and I will be keeping an eye for your future developments. I shall also resteem this post as many of my followers are new to the site (it's the easiest way I have found so far in getting people to see my own blogs etc) in the hope that others will see what a great project you are starting to build. Thanks again, @dan21050

My readers are my most valuable asset and I would be nothing without them. Truth to be told, most of my readers are either newcomers or minnows so the best thing I can do, is to educate them and to pave the way for as many as possible. That's how I believe community building should be done, and I also believe that this will lead to great things with time.

Thank you very much for your awesome comments and I appreciate the Resteem too!
