Help me put together the ultimate guide of tips for new members! (Information Bounty) - Paying 1 STEEM per qualified response! (Details inside)
Please list your best tips/suggestions for new members in the comments below!
Guidelines:
- The tips should be targeted towards users who have recently joined the platform.
- You can post as many tips as you want, but I will pay a maximum of 3 STEEM per user.
- They should be relatively short (at most a paragraph).
- Links to awesome posts that would be good for new members to read are valid.
- If the same tip is posted twice (even with different wording), whoever posted it first will get credit.
- Spend time reading the tips that other users have posted and upvote the ones you like :)
- The bounty is open until the payout of this post closes.
- All payouts will be made within 24 hours of this post's closing.
I plan to use the content shared by users to create a new post with all the best tips. I will likely change the wording on some, but I will give credit to all the ideas.
Reminder to vote for witnesses!
The Steem witnesses are the elected leaders of the community that power the blockchain. Everybody should learn about the Steem witnesses and vote on who they think is best. If you don't know much about witnesses or aren't sure who to vote for, you can check out this Witness Voting Guide. If you think @timcliff is doing a great job, please consider voting for him as witness! You can vote for witnesses here: https://steemit.com/~witnesses
oh wow!! I just noticed I was awarded some Steem for commenting? I had no idea LoL!! You have been all kinds of surprises!!! I have to point out that you have been extreeeemly helpful, kind and I appreciate it very much!!! As a new member, You are what I have envisioned this site to be all about! Thank you again Tim, you just rocked my world again :)
Thanks. It means a lot :)
Giving on Steemit means gaining!
Good initiative @timcliff , upvoted!
This should be a post rather than a comment. Great information here. Thanks for commenting :).
As a newbie myself the best tip I can give anyone is comment, comment, comment, and then comment some more (quality of course, not just Great post! Nice work!). I've met some amazing people just by adding my two cents to their post or sharing something related. It really is the best way I have found to be a part of this community, plus a good comment often leads people to your own work...not hinting at anything there ;) seriously.
I'd like to comment on that..................
I agree its nice to have a quality response versus a two or three word reply to something 'deep" i blogged
Hello I am a newbie here, joined steemit for few days, heres are some tips that I found, hopefully you find them useful :)
Participation is important!
Besides upvoting posts and submitting posts, commenting is also very important! It should be noted that you should furnish valuable and related comments, instead of just leaving words like "follow, upvoted" things like this. Please respect every author here and support all those valuable sharing here, in order to build steemit together:)
meep
Good idea.
Very helpful for new members.
upvoted and followed you @timcliff
For new members:
Dear @olyhigh nice post really the most obvious one but probably also the greatest threat to newbies...! Thanks... cant be repeated enough!
When you are new...don't get excited or depressed because you are not seeing growth in your wallet...instead you just want to concentrate on upvotes and followers and you yourself want to follow and take knowledge from the ones that can tutor you right. Keep commenting on others post and make friends...learn the ins and outs of the system...patience will take you all the way to the target...and success is ahead...happy steeming.
Whatever spin anyone puts on it, we are all here with hopes for a future payoff.....follow me, Ill share honestly how much my time here pays off

Read the Steemit whitepaper:
https://steem.io/SteemWhitePaper.pdf
...and keep in mind some details are out of date, but it's an important read, especially if you are investing in the platform.
Do you think that they'll update it any time soon? It can be off-putting to read, especially if you don't know that it is out of date.
It's a bit of a mystery why it hasn't been updated. I guess everyone is too busy.
Most of the details are still valid, but the big ones for me are: coin inflation (now at 9.5% and falling) and staking period (13wks).
We might have a lot more investor interest if these details were updated and marketed.
If this qualified, please give steem to @olisan. Thank you!
