Shrimp Life Support
What is a Shrimp?
A bottom feeder marine crustacean that can live in every ocean environment. Shrimp are small little guys and easy to overlook. They are relatively weak because they have no spine, however they do have an exoskeleton, which is little more than a thick shelled skin that doesn't protect them well from larger predators. They eat algae, tiny fish, and plankton.
I feel sorry for the growing Shrimp population here on Steemit, and I want to help them out. Please read on if you share my feelings.
Today, I would like to invite all the shrimp, minnows, and plankton to post links to their recent posts they worked the hardest on. I'll pick my favorites to upvote 100%, like I always do.
Like every curator, I will be judging on my own personal criteria. I'll be looking for these things...
1. Quality of content.
- Is your posted content unique?
- Are there images, videos, or gifs or memes to hold interest?
- Is the writing worth reading?
- Is there some personality included?
2. Overall Shrimpiness
- Are you making lots of recent posts and comments, and earning very little?
- Are you really poor? Closer to less than 100 SP/SBD total earnings.
3. Time Spent
- Did you join months ago, or last week?
- Are you posting, commenting, and upvoting others on a regular basis?
- Are you generally an encouraging force here on steemit, or a mean-spirited ghost that frequently disappears?
4. Wildcard
- Are you posting something that is interesting to me personally?
- Are you posting something a nearby whale might find interesting?
- Is today your lucky day?
Please include a link to the post you would like me to review, in the comments below.
Everything in the comments below, I will monitor for new posts to review. The first comments are likely to be from the most active and shrimp, so I'll check those out first. Add some clever text or a fun image to your comment below, and I might even upvote the comment itself!
My followers and other curators are welcome to also feed the shrimp they find. Shrimp love eating up any spare Steem you can share.
The point is not to give away votes just because someone buys, trades, or ask for it. The point is to give votes to people who need it, and deserve it.
If this works well, and people appreciate it, I'll host another session like this again in the future.
