## Community Participation
From the get go, we wanted this podcast to be about helping to grow the Steem community to grow in a positive fashion. This can be done best with participation from the whole community. We would like to interview active members of the Steem society and are open to topic suggestions. Even criticism is welcome though to quote the DAO slack loading page **"Please be civil and considerate!"** I see Steemit as potentially being the platform that introduces blockchain tech to the masses and Comm-Press is here to do our part in making this dream a reality!
