I know it's the first of April but this is no April fools joke!
Have you ever just sat there and appreciated what our little community actually has to offer? Well let me give you a very quick overview of some of the amazing things that make #SSG one of, if not THE BEST place to be on steemit.
First of all and probably the most important is the guys and gals that make up our cooperative
COOPERATIVE - adjective: involving mutual assistance in working towards a common goal.
We all "stack" precious metals. Some stack 100's or even 1000's of ounces, some stack single digits, but it is the love of silver, gold, platinum, palladium and all things shiny that brings us together.
So whether you are new to stacking or an old hand, the folks that make up #SSG are here to help, share knowledge and answer any questions that you need answering.
Below are a list of some members that might be able to help any newbies out:
Hive account@silverstackeruk. This guy has done a lot of unnoticed work around here. He is in charge of maintaining the #SSG members list. Now you may think this a trivial and meaningless task but he's the guy that keeps the list updated and can answer any questions related to joining or current members. He updates the lists weekly and the latest list can be found here.

Hive account@goldmatters. For want of a better way to say it, he's our precious metal investment guy. He's our link to #goldmoney and #mene 24kt jewellery.

Hive account@mrs-v 
Hive account@mr-vulcan 
Hive account@stackinag47 
Hive account@thebear 
Hive account@silvervessel and many more. If you're after some poured silver or gold guilding send him a message and he will sort you out.
Hive account@thedamus. Giver of no FUCKS! Semi-famous actor/stuntman. Knows a shit load about the cryptocurrency market and will share what he knows for a small fee or beer...
Hive account@raybrockman. All around great man and the heart and soul of steemsilvergold. Puts all members of ssg first and always on hand to help raise funds for good causes. He has very deep pockets and never asks for anything in return.
Hive account@goldenarms. King of dark comedy and has a very wrong sense of humour, which is why he's always welcome. Blogger extraordinaire and lover of GOLD.
Hive account@edxserverus. The man with a midas touch when it comes to computer designs. If you have an idea or design you want made up, he's your go to guy. Has helped many of us already here on Steemit.
Hive account@sevinwilson. The man responsible for the #steemsilverround. Works hard behind the scenes to make sure we get this year's silver round.
Hive account@o07. Do you like endless competitions and gifs? Well here's the man for you, always has a competition going and they are so easy to enter and funny at the same time.
Im sorry if I've not mentioned you but there are just so many amazing members to mention.
NEXT UP WE HAVE OUR VERY OWN COMMUNITY VOTING BOT
If you're not already following 
Hive account@ssg-community then what's wrong with you? Don't worry though it's already looking after you. All members of ssg get a 3% upvote every 23 hours on their posts just as a thank you for being a member.
The man behind the technical side of Hive account@ssg-community is 
Hive account@buggedout. He has is head screwed on and can answer almost anything you could think up about how it runs, but if you have any questions related to the bot, you can contact him, Hive account@raybrockman, Hive account@thedamus, Hive account@silverstackeruk or 
Hive account@welshstacker and we will get back to you as quick as we can.
WE ALSO HAVE A DEDICATED COMPETITION ACCOUNT
Hive account@silvergoldcomps is an account run by me, Hive account@welshstacker, for the benefit of ssg members. It's has been very quiet lately but will be back up and giving away sbd very soon. All sbd raised will be given back as prizes and all the steem will be used to benefit the community. I take no financial gains from this account and never will.
So there we go, three very compelling reason but not all the reasons why #steemsilvergold is one of the best communities on Steemit.
I am Hive account@welshstacker and I endorse this message.
