So There Was This Article
and it really kind of ruined my day. I've purposely put off commenting about it until it was past payout so as to bring less attention to it and having someone accidentally upvote it more than that crap already was. Yes, crap. Total shit post in my opinion. Why? The main reason being, this author supposedly spent $1000 on bot ads just to get to trending to 'get @adsactly's attention'.
Seriously?

Even If

So Why DO I Support @adsactly?
Some of my very first posts were for a rap challenge that was sponsored by ADSactly and ran by @rondonson which was my initial exposure to the community. Shortly after #thealliance was being constructed, one of their more prominent members, @velimir, joined the family and explained to me about their goals. He is a great photographer and writer. Since I've gotten closer to other members like @princessmewmew and @soyrosa, the mutual support has only grown. Then one day, out of no where, they approached me personally. We had a nice long live voice chat and we both walked away with new respects for each other as we share many similar views. The main one being - paying it forward. They've never asked me for a single penny.
Enough of That Bullshit
I said my piece and wanted to give everyone an update on my witness. Everything is running smooth and I am waiting for a stable version of the 19.10 to be released. My protege @jatinhota and fellow witness is also anxious. I do feel that editing an old post has its benefits as perhaps a link someone has in there is no longer valid or maybe circumstances are just different altogether. Maybe it says vote @wackou or @jerrybanfield for witness and since they are no longer on the board, you get my drift. I'm also still trying what I can do to get the decaying witness votes situated, but it's a slow process.

The New Banner
I have tried to incorporate everything I am a part of and support here on the blockchain but there are a few that either I didn't have the right graphics for or just couldn't find one. But, most of them are there lol! I will try to go through the list of things (I may forget a few) I support consistently (one way or another) for you:

On The Lookout
I'm always looking for new or struggling ideas and initiatives to help out with because as I grow, I really do try to pay it forward and help others grow. I know what it's like to struggle, probably better than a lot of you will ever have to know. So, if there is anyone out there that has an idea or knows of something, please leave me a comment or get in touch with me on discord. STeeM on my peoples.
