Congrats Chris. Wow, impressive :)
I am still learning the ropes here but I think ( or maybe just hoping) the cream of the crop will rise. And the ones who produce quality content over time will eventually shine. I also think constructive commenting that adds to the discussion will bring in more Followers for a person. And once you get enough Followers then maybe it's the Steemian's responsibility to put out 'gangbusting' content that the Followers will want to see each and everyday. But I am new , so this is kind of speculation on my part right now. Anyway, great job brother for getting over a 1,100 Followers. Look forward to joining you at this milestone sometime in 2018 :)
