Oh thank you for writing this post. I have just begun in steemit and I was super excitied initally and then after I posted a few quality posts Iooked at what was 'hot' and 'trending' and relaised that most of it was pointless rubbish and that people were basically gaming steemit - then I found you and a couple of other people and I think if I stick around and keep writing about the stuff that interests me then it might just work.

So thanks again Deliberatos I am now at least hopeful that I will get my head around this platform!
