This is my reply to Hive account@jerrybanfield's post https://busy.org/witness-category/@jerrybanfield/100-steem-for-witnesses-below-rank-80.

Server Specs

So for my server I have 32 GB's of ram, 4 TB's of HHD's, and an Xeon E3 (4 Core/8 Thread). For those who don't understand that it means it's capable of running steem's node for awhile. I'm renting one from Hive account@privex. The reason I don't have a backup or the SSD version is because honestly I don't have enough. But I started pulling from my Steem Power so I could pay for the upcoming payment. But if I get the 100 Steem from Hive account@budgets I will have enough to pay for a backup and an SSD version for awhile.

Somethings I've Done

I have contributed to busy.org a few times. I've had a witness server for a while. I've also created SteemTimer, but that hasn't been upgraded in awhile sadly. I've even done a small series on Graphic Design. I would do more but school's been busy. I also publish price feeds every half hour.

Thoughts On The Development Of Steem

I love steem. And thank all contributors to the continual effort to keep it alive. (Hint: people who upvote and post are contributors too). As a programmer I know sometimes projects cost a lot and take awhile to make/get traction. I believe Steem is getting better everyday. Especially with semi-new frontends like the dSites and the upgrades to busy.org (My favorite frontend, please don't be mad). I believe Steem is the better version of Facebook!

The Future

I am going to continue to be a witness as long as I can! The 100 Steem would definitely help me continue. I also plan to continue to post helpful content. Also if any new ideas come up (programming ideas) I will work on them. (Programmer's block is a real thing).
