Introducing The Little League of True Steemians - free delegations up to 500 SP

One of the great benefits of doing the Alternative Lifestyle Show on MSP Waves Radio is being to able to interview some really great people on the steem platform.

Some of these people have truly inspired me.

One of those people is White Walking Feather @wwf who I had the good fortune to talk with for a second time on last Friday's show. He was on the show with some of his Stewards of Terra Mater (@borrowedearth, @carey-page, @earthmother, @mistermercury, @realtreebivvy and @skycae) who he supports with delegations and mentoring to help them progress on the platform.

We discussed during the show, and in subsequent private chat, the great benefits of delegating steempower and more generally the power of giving in steem.

White Walking Feather @wwf was originally inspired to 'pay it forward' after being the recipient of a large delegation from @fulltimegeek. He has managed to maintain his onward delegations even though @fulltimegeek no longer delegates to him.

This reminded me of @goldendawne who has likewise managed to continue her delegations to @beatitudes8, @freedompoint, @karenfoster and @walkerland even though @fulltimegeek has now taken back his delegation to her.

Talking with and observing the clear benefits of the delegations that @wwf and @goldendawne make has convinced me this is a good thing to do.

I have therefore decided to set up my own delegation scheme.

The benefits of steem are very much enhanced once you reach 500 SP and get 'the slider' to allow multiple sub 100% votes. I am therefore going to select a small number of people to delegate enough steempower to to take them above the magic 500 SP.

I currently have around 8,600 SP, and despite the current price fall, I am still actively buying more steem to power up to my mid-year target of 10,000 SP.

To allow me to continue to support those people I already support I want to maintain at least 5,000 SP and ideally a minimum $1 upvote. Beyond that I am looking toward delegating to probably half a dozen people in the first instance.

I am not planning to focus on any particular sector or country, more I am looking to support people who appear committed to the potential of steem for doing good and who share similar principles to me.

Alongside the delegation of steempower I hope to assist the people selected with mentoring and guidance to develop their presence on the steem blockchain.

The Little League of True Steemians

With a certain amount of tongue in cheek, my working title for the merry band I hope to bring together is The Little League of True Steemians.

I already have a couple of people in mind that I hope will come on board but I am on the look-out for more.

The sort of people am I looking for will be doing at least one of these :

  • actively working to promote steem and recruiting others to the platform

  • producing quality content that has some lasting value

  • engaging in projects on the wider steem blockchain

They will also be :

  • spreading their votes around to other hard working and productive steemians

  • using properly sourced and credited copyright free images in their posts

  • writing primarily in English, or possibly Spanish

  • regularly posting content, at least 4 times a week

  • actively engaging with people who comment on their posts

  • powering up at least a portion of their SBD post-rewards

  • using Discord and actively engaging in communities.

And as a guide there are a few things I don't do :

  • I don't self-vote

  • I don't use bid-bots

  • I don't use DMania

  • I don't power-down

  • And I am not a fan of animated gifs or memes in posts!

Anyone is welcome to argue their case to me on any of these.

So if you think you might fit the bill and can match these criteria, pop a comment below with a recent post that you are proud of and I will make contact with you.

Remember, my delegation will be to bring you up to 500 SP so you need to be somewhat below that level currently.

I will reserve the right to withdraw the delegation at any time either if I need it back or if the recipient is no longer following the principles of The Little League of True Steemians.

Finally if anyone has steem they want to sell I am actively buying.

I operate a non-profit instant steem-for-fiat exchange service.

Sell your steem to me and not only will you get a fast, cheap exchange service you will also be helping me make more delegations.
