Vote Interest Pool - VIP Feature: @grey580
200+ FOLLOWERS AND GROWING!!!
About a month ago, VIP was being brainstormed and put together to have the goal if distributing SP to new and current users. 16 days ago VIP launched and has achieved over 200 followers in that time. I see the community working together to try and make this project successful like others on here. We've already seen donations come in and distributed. This is a slow steady growth and with the growing support, it is only a matter of time until we reach our goal!
VIP Bonus At the bottom of the post, there will be 2 topics to choose from. Choose one and leave a comment giving reasons why that is your choice. The comment with the most votes will earn a reward of 5% from the pool. The description below has been updated to reflect this change.

What is Vote Interest Pool(VIP)?
VIP in a new project and an initiative to reward voters for... well... voting. You are already given this from the 25% deducted from post rewards and given to the curators as part of the Steemit platform standard. With VIP, you will be rewarded on top of this.
Similar to @steemsports, but the main goal of VIP is to progress the Steemit platform and have more steem/sbd/steempower distributed to everyone. The more everyone one can get, the better.
In order for VIP to be successful, it will need the community's help. As far as I seen here on Steemit, it shouldn't be much of a problem. Almost every user is rethinking how they use a social platform and trying to help Steemit grow. I am confident we can accomplish this and everyone can feel the VIP treatment.
VIP Feature
Every new post will feature a "VIP Feature" post created by fellow Steemians. To better the Steemit community in quality, this feature was created to support verified users on Steemit and get the community interacting more together.
In order to be featured on a VIP Feature, jump on Steemspeak radio and say hello and meet others in the Steemit community. Who know's, you may run into @charlieshrem or @ned in there :)
Once verified and we know you have a voice and are not a robot, You will be randomly queued to have your most recent post for the day to be featured for the VIP Feature. once you made it on the random queue list, one of your most recent posts will be featured once every 3 months to allow others to be featured.
The @voteinterestpool account will automatically vote the post featured for VIP Feature on the authors account.

Example:
If the VIP post hits a reward value of $500 after 24 hrs, automatically roughly $125 will be deducted for the 25% curation voting rewards.
The 75% remainder:
50% in SteemPower value of $187.5 will go to the @voteinterestpool account for the author post curation reward.
10% goes to the author on "VIP Feature" at roughly $18.75 value in Steempower
The remaining 40% rewards will be roughly $168.75 and distributed to 300 voters if the post reached $500 by 300 votes.
Everyone will receive roughly $0.5625 value in SteemPower.
So let's shoot for $1000+ so everyone who votes will get over $1 worth of SteemPower!
@voteinterestpool account voting:
Other than "VIP Feature" author's post @voteinterestpool account will follow voting trail of @instructor2121 and @fyrstikken because they are reputable members that are doing contributions to the Steemit platforms and are good judgement on quality posts and users on Steemit, if the event the @voteinterestpool account becomes large enough to have large voting power. This will ensure voting will be distributed outside of just VIP.
Disclaimer:
- @voteinterestpool may be subject to changes in the future to maintain operation
- If the VIP dividends are are less than 0.0001, it will carry over to the next VIP payout.
Special thanks
@instructor2121 for contributing to this project
Can't forget the Steemspeak crew. Their support motivated me to keep going so I wouldn't have made it this far without them. @fyrstikken, @proctologic, @contentjunkie, @inertia, @krnel, @sykochica, @patelincho, @tee-em, @noganoo, @pharesim, @mughat, @applecrisp, @raymonjohnstone @creationlayer, @shneakysquirrel, @pickokernel, @ausbitbank, @poeticsnake, @kiddarko, and anyone else I forgot to mention.
Note: There are probably many of you have wondered who created this project and maintaining it but it's not hard to figure out. I want VIP to be a community success and didn't feel like I needed the mention as the special thanks mentions those that have contributed insight on what they felt was needed for Steemit. I'm just another Steemit user learning something new.
Thank you,

Aliens
Definitely Aliens. Since @lordvader posts here on Steemit and he comes from a galaxy far, far way, it's obvious that aliens exist. Also, how else do you explain Dennis Rodman?
Haha good one.
Aliens
They're actually "extraterrestrials" in this context. And I pick that because the universe is a very large place. I think it would be naive to believe that no other forms of life exist in it. Whether we meet them at any point in the immediate future is uncertain. But probably not likely.
Not Aliens..
Aliens are nonsense made up by Governments of the world in order to gain more control over the people. One day, when most everyone believes this crap they will stage some event and claim they need complete control to solve the problem.
There are however demons, often confused as aliens because Satan will claim anything to keep from admitting he is Satan. :)
No Aliens....
What if daemons are aliens?
daemons are only alien to windows users....
potato...
Not aliens. Though that meme cracks me up every time.
yup, it cracks me up too :P
Not Aliens. Lets take the side of the discussion, Not Aliens... @majes states it perfectly...One could add that pop culture through film and music seem to be preparing the populace for some sort of exterestial phenomenon. Afterall, in order to unite the world we would have to have a comman enemy...right? ...you have wondered why all the characters with super duper powers.....right? Just pondering....
Thank you for the opportunity to participate VIP.
BTW...How do you handle a draw?
I mentioned in one of the previous post, I split bonus between you and @dgiors.
Everyone should read the post than just voting :P
Thank you for your reply @voteinterestpool. Very kind of you to spotlight the information for bleujay. Apologies for the trouble. Advise is taken. All the best. Cheers.
Aliens, definitely, otherwise it's an awful waste of space. Long before the internet, my husband worked for a daily newspaper and interviewed a couple of guys who worked at a shipyard--a very down-to-earth job--and claimed to have had an alien encounter. They seemed scared to death, he said--like something had really happened to them or they believed it had happened.
Aliens... Will Smith told me so ;)
How can you remember? He didn't Neuralize you?
Gotta say Aliens just becuase if we have life here on earth then how can the odds be agents there being life elsewhere.
What if we're the aliens?
I say Aliens there is something out there somewhere but it might not be what we expect.
I wonder if this is real? They said it's a 250,000 year old aluminum. There was no way man could have built this back then if this is real.
Not Aliens.
