HELP! We need to support our Steemit member here - @theprophet0 -- and here is how you can do that THIS WEEK quickly

in #steemit8 years ago (edited)


Hi everyone. Nolan ( @theprophet0 ) here is a 15 year old with a big heart on Steemit. I am going to make this short but he needs our help and we can do it quickly and painlessly. I will amend this post as necessary, I just quickly decided to do something. I don't have a ton of crypto to donate to him so if we can work together, we can make this work and help this youngster out. He is definitely worth the investment.

He has been providing a lot of his time to us as members here on Steemit in the way of his resources, his being a witness on the blockchain for us, donating a ton of his earning and time to help people. He is only 15 and I admire this youngster. He is friendly and helpful and we need to help him now.

I will be brief - please read the following for background:


This week here is what Nolan had to say, in this post of his included right here I have copied for you to read.

" Hey guys, unfortunately, I am leaning on making the decision to shut down my witness for the time being. As much as I'd like to keep my witness up, being fifteen and unemployed in the real world, I am having a tough time financially. I also have not moved up from the 58th spot in over a couple weeks. The 'FINAL DECISION' will be made in a couple days or so, so if I were to move up a couple spots, I would keep my witness running. But, I most certainly will not be powering down! I still believe in Steem/Steemit very much which will affect my choice to not power down! "

Here are the simple ways we can help him RIGHT NOW:


1/ Please Resteem and Upvote this post and keep it in the newsfeeds. It will raise awareness big time. That will help him a lot. My posts don't tend to be seen or earn much but I will transfer something to him after this post pays out. I will make this a 50/50 post and send half the liquid rewards over to him (Steem) or something similar. I've not done a post like this or a contest so this is my first time doing this.

I will even come back here when that is done, edit/amend this post at the end and you can check what has happened.

2/ Please vote for Nolan as a witness. If you read his post I have included above for you, (or any of his posts) -- he includes simple steps at the end of his posts you can go right now and vote for him as a witness. That can be done in 30 seconds.

3/ Donate some liquid Steem or some of your SBD dollars to him today or this week, either now, or out of your next 1-2 posts you make and then just transfer some of those earnings to him directly.

Thanks for your action and attention. Your friend in Liberty -- Barry

Upvoted and resteemed, great post!

Well...you said the magic word TRUTH...upvoted and resteemed. And I kicked in $10.00 (All I had was $50, my stuff doesn't make much either!

Listen buddy, this beaut of a kid is also on my #Fascistbook friends list. I see what he posts and this youngster is more awake than 90% of the people my age in our 40's.

That is also why I am supporting him. He shares truth and facts like nobody's business!!!

I gave as much as I could...it took half of my Steem to get back on here!

Do I need to do a community helper post for you next? LOL.

My mortgage is due last nite LOL

I hope not...I'm almost homeless. I live at my ex-boss house and look after him. If this ends, who knows???

Well, you know what I am dealing with on my end, so sadly, I can relate on some levels man

Upvoted and resteemed!!!

Upvoted, voted for him as witness, and send him my last of liquid Steem. Always here to support this community and the people who make all this possible. Thank you for sharing @barrydutton !

I have been working 100% the last hour to spread this message all over the place so I have not been replying here but that is my focus right now, and I TY all for your support of Nolan and this post however you are doing it.

I am lost for words for how much I appreciate what you are doing!

No sweat buddy, you have done so much good for so many people -- I want you to know you are appreciated and if we can help you, we will. People are really doing their part here and I am really glad to see that. I will add you to JamesC's group now too, I shared it there.

It's about a day later now ~ 24 hours since this post went up -- can you update us here on your numbers Nolan? When you get time.

how things have improved, how many donations came in on your side, the votes for your witness etc. All that stuff.

-- have a nice weekend buddy

Yes I will! :)

Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I'm delighted that you love @prophet0 as much as we do. He is an inspiration that can show people how it's really done. He has always been very generous with our community. Resteeming this now! Posting in a couple of chat rooms as well.

VEry kind of you to do this. I have upvoted his post and his witness campaign! Thank you for notifying me of this! I will get more people to support this.

Awesome man! I do not have much but we are all in this together. I know he appreciates the help. He is a good kid, I think we are lucky to have him. I want to keep him around LOL

^_^ Each of our Vesting power is more valuable than one may think! It can make the difference of someone be in the top 50 and out of it! I completely agree, I would like him to stay as a witness too!

The witness job is something to be taken seriously. That is 100% true.

Indeed, I though about becoming a witness at one point! Then I learned it is a little complicated!

Awesome, happy it was a success!

Thanks man.

My numbers are small on posts but for me it was YUGE lol. It was connected to a good cause and witnesses and whales got involved to help the post here so that is nice. I waited many hours after payout in case something else trickled in to give him too.

We msgd tonite a few times.... in the next hour he is writing a post to update everyone and I will likely link that back here tonite. He had most of it written and the Steemit editor auto save thingy dumped it on him he said LOL, I hate stuff like that.

I am offline soon due to my headaches but I am anxiously waiting for his update like all day lol

Your welcome

It is not about how much but more about the thought and the movement started! Yeah good idea to wait!

That is good, I will be watching his blog page. Yeah I hate when I lost work due to technical difficulties!

Hope you feel better soon! No need to wait or be anxious!

Great post and I realize that most of your posts are 100% steem powered, but in this case your sig is wrong since this one is not 100% steem powered. Not criticizing, but wanted to call that out to make you aware since you accidentally left it in.

You are right, I got this up quick and used my same info in there as always, changing it now, and messaging people on this, thanks a lot. 100% of my posts here have been all Steem Powered since around the first week of Nov. or right about there.
