"when someone clicks on YOUR referral link, YOU are automatically added to that new user’s Follow List. Yes, they can delete you later if they so choose, but for starters, you are their host and their guide to Steemit."
This is a great idea. I have already brought in at least 5 people and more are on their way. Once July 4 comes around, I expect my personal referral number to jump way up. I think your idea is a great solution that should be easy to implement.
