Is The Button Broken?!? Or Is It Just Us?!?
Thank You!
First I would like to thank all of my followers personally for taking the time to read and comment on my post, I truly appreciate each of you!
Many of you, about ten noticed all of your post being resteemed by me, and On top of that I also upvoted everyone's post and gave 100% upvote to your newer post. How did I pick the people I upvoted and resteemed? I simply went through my replies and picked out the first ten. Why did I decide to be so generous this morning? Well its two fold really.
I'm feeling really blessed. @goldendawne chose me to be one of her Golden Ambassadors and delegated enough steem power to engage my magic upvoting slider. It was something I didn't take lightly and it has helped a great deal with exposure increasing my upvotes received and followers. So I wanted to return the favor and help others with a little exposure, and 100% upvotes for all their hard work and posting.
@goldendawne is a resteem master, when you go to her blog its hard to even find her own post sometimes because of all the resteeming she does. In the past I have upvoted A LOT of post, but here latley with the exception of @goldendawne there seems to be a trend of people not resteeming post. Sure people still upvote and for that we should all be grateful and upvote others as much as we can, but what happen to the resteem? What happen to helping your fellow steemians with exposure? I became apart of that trend myself, I was still trying to upvote all of my followers and even find new steemians to upvote and follow. Overall however I was not resteeming like I use to. I'm not sure if it was a fear of hiding or crowding out my post with resteemed post when people came to my blog or if I was just following suit and not resteeming because I wasn't getting resteemed.
Its time we all make a change. Every Sunday I will go through my comments, resteems and upvotes. The names I see the most, and the names that are the most active on my blog/post will get their last 5 post resteemed if I haven't already upvoted them some how, they will receive 100% upvotes. I'm saying to all of you I will do better in showing my appreciation by resteeming more often.
I have met some absolutely wonderful people on steemit, but lets all be honest if it wasn't for the allure of making a little money I never would have tried steemit at all. If we all work together and share the upvotes and resteems we can all make a little money and grow together!

You have been a great encouragement to my wife and I. We love the competitions you put on and the fact that you communicate so well with everyone on here. @goldendawne picked a great ambassador. Keep up the great work.
I agree with @beatitudes8 being a good pick. He is very community orientated; whether in real life or here on steemit and Discord.
Wow thank you so much! That is so very encouraging and appreciated, we all put in several hours of work here on steemit, and we should all be encouraging and lifting each other up everytime we get a chance!
Again, Thank you for the kind words.
I know what you mean about @goldendawne blog. She does a lot of resteems and I have been trying to do more resteeming myself. I very seldom see any of my posts resteemed but when they are it is nice to see. Working on trying to get my slider and it takes some time but I will get there. I have been using SteemWorld to adjust my vote on posts, it is a long way around but it works. 100% upvoted and resteemed!
Thank you very much!. SteemWorld is a good one to use for sure. If it wasn't for @goldendawne I still wouldn't have that slider myself. It's fairly simple right? We all stick together upvote and resteem we all succeed. Lift each other up!
i try to space out my resteems, so that there's a variety throughout the day. even if i open up the site in the morning, i'll leave some posts open to resteem later on. and like @walkerland, i've got a habit of bookmarking posts in the app i use. sometimes the stuff that interests me might not interest other people - or i worry that y'all have already seen it!
you're doing good work, my friend!
I can relate to that concern, but I believe its something we as a community need to get past. I believe filling our feed with resteemed post means we are succeeding as a community, the more the better. I do agree with what @freedompoint and others have mentioned. Steemit needs to change the "mechanics" to add a resteem tab or make our feed more adjustable.
Thank you for commenting
This is an awesome idea! I've been very lax about resteems honestly. I have participated in initiatives to resteem in the past, but it can be difficult to wade through the crap and find good stuff to pass on. You seem like someone who doesn't post crap, soooo, I'll start my newfound desire to resteem at least one person a day with you. :)
Hey now that does sound like a great Idea . I like It! Who knows maybe all of us weird homesteaders can make a living off steemit in a couple years if we help each other out!
Thank you for your kind words!
When I pick my GAs I take so much time analyzing things and I have a LONG list of people I am looking at... I have 9 more slots to fill this year!
They will be lucky to have you in their corner!
I love your initiative! I like that you have a plan for resteeming.I think Steemit would benefit from a resteem tab on our accounts. So when we resteem it goes out to everyone, but on our blog it just shows our posts. Easier to sort I think.
Yes I agree we should be able to "filter" our blog or at least what we see and/or what we want others to see.
Completely agree.
I wanted to get in on the fire contests but I could not seem to find them on the cards. Oh well, I had a good one from this last Sukkot! Thanks for sharing the wealth and all of the interactions we have had so far! Shalom
More to come!
Re-read this post again...I know I do not resteem as much as I need to! I remember early on reading a couple of posts about resteeming and I remember that if that was all you did it would be a negative. Thanks for the challenge to start doing it again more frequently!
Great post, I tend to resteem to book mark something I really liked so I can find it again. I had overlooked the fact that this also helps give a good post most exposure. I am going to work on resteeming more actively. Thanks!
That’s a great idea. I might try something simillar. I’ve never really resteemed too much. I guess there are a lot of things I don’t do, or do because I’ve read so many posts os people griping about resteems cluttering up their feed, or unfollowing people who upvote themselves and that sort of thing. But, I think you’re right about helping each other gain exposure. Thanks for the encouragement!
Your welcome!
