@Mrron where have you gone?
You joined us twelve days ago and we haven't been the same since. You were quickly found by @thecurator, followed rather quickly by none other than the real @berniesanders. and @kushed. and @juneaugoldbuyer. and @complexring. and of course @steemed @itsascam @steemroller. You made over $1000 on your very first post -- you must have been very happy!
So you posted again. And made over $1000 again. I questioned you and you replied -- even became a "follower" of mine.
Another post, another $1000. But -- uh-oh -- the flags began. So the fourth post only made you $500 (and 17 flags), and the fifth only $400. That was the last time we saw you, not so much as a comment or a vote since then.
But it's ok -- @lakers gave us more just like you!
@lakers was mined, and found a few pow's between April 30th and May 2nd. Then no activity until nine days ago when we got lucky again! On that auspicious date, @lakers created two new accounts for us, @lifeisawesome and @honeyscribe. (I have asked each of them "who is @lakers", but I guess they didn't see the question.)
What did @honeyscribe do first after being created? Why, upvote @mrron of course! Then upvote @lifeisawesome. Then create a post.
@honeyscribe has yet to make a post worth less than a few hundred. Oddly enough, neither has @lifeisawesome. I'm so glad @lakers finally got around to creating them for us!
Now, @msgivings didn't need any help, she's a self-created type of blogger. Luckily for her, @thecurator was the first to find her first post. The rest, as they say, is history. Thirteen posts, $14,000. She's totally legit, though -- after all, only 106 steemers have a higher reputation than her! Brilliant writing all around. Hopefully she doesn't go anwyhere. But if she does, we still have
@travelguru! An all-around great guy. I feel lucky to have met him. He's alpha, after all (just ask him if you're not sure). He mined himself an account two days ago and authored a post. We all loved it! $2000 for you! I can't wait to see what he writes next -- it will be EPIC!
And, if we start questioning, or start to get bored, don't worry. Someone will create someone else for us to give our money to.
At this point, @mrron, I miss you. Tell us more about Pakistani spices, like you used to.
EDIT: @techreview welcome to the list
EDIT: to those who I have offended, thanks for letting me off the hook with my rep intact!
