Well Steemians, I did it. Yesterday, I took the plunge and became a full-fledged member of the Minnow Support Project. I was nervous that @aggroed's initiation would be painful, but I gotta say, I'm feeling good! Like, really really good!

And why wouldn't I feel good? MSP has been one of the most amazing communities I have ever come across.

A new person comes into the Discord chat and doesn't have enough Steem to register with the bots...boom! Someone is transferring them steem right away.

Someone doesn't know how to register with Streemian, SteemVoter, or delegate SP to help out MSP. I guarantee you someone has a post explaining how to do it all, or even better someone is sending a direct message to that person explaining it all.

As someone that is new to Steemit, I am telling you this is the place to be!!! You will learn more, and make more connections here than anywhere else I have seen.

I know we have all seen the posts talking about how to be successful on Steemit, and they all mention that being social, engaging with the community, and making friends is by far the best way to gain a following. Those posts are all right, and you know what one of the easiest ways to accomplish all three is...Join Minnow Support Project! There are always a ton of people in the chat, just waiting to see what others are doing.

You've got @fatpandadesign in there organizing a pandacast to help feature minnows, the community rallying around @gmuxx trying to send him to Steemfest, @rhondak and @r0nd0n giving out post critiques and advice.

Interested in a specific topic, I bet you there is a channel for that! From Contests, Poetry, Social Missions, and Steemsports to a channel for just about every country you can imagine, and they are all active! You are guaranteed to find someone that you can relate to!

Ok, so you’ve come this far in this post and you’re still not sold…Well let me lay one more piece of awesomeness on you. Ever had a post sit there with just one or two measly votes? Had that feeling of rejection and sadness that no one has read your work? Well come to MSP, register with the bots, and you are guaranteed at least 2 votes from accounts that have hundreds of thousands of Steem Power behind them. All it takes is a simple registration; you don’t even need to be a member. That’s free money people!

You know this place is legit when you have the backing of some of the most awesome Steemians around, @aggroed aka Mayor of Minnows, @ausbitbank, @teamsteem, @neoxian, @someguy123, and @theprophet0, and that isn’t even close to all of the awesome people in there.

This is seriously an amazing place, and by far the best initiative to help Minnows I have come across in the month and a half I have been on Steemit. I can guarantee you won’t be disappointed joining us, and when you make it into the Discord channel feel free to say Hi! I promise I’ll respond, help in any way that I can, and make sure to get you on your feet!
