Supporting Minnows who Support Minnow Support Project
I have altered my delegated steem power. I have removed my steem power from @minnowsupport which funds a publicly accessible bot that anyone can use from within the PALnet Discord server. I have placed it into @msp-lovebot and added a few thousand SP on top. The @minnowsupport bot is still well north of 120,000 SP. So, this is a special way to thank and help the little guys who do a lot.

This approach in particular is a consequence of the latest hardfork. The hardfork was very much designed so it would kill bot voting. What I will do instead is create additional accounts and delegate to them. I'll have power on my main account to provide Dank Amps to good posts. I'll have smurfs to support authors I enjoy and think help this platform and they'll benefit from bot use.
MSP
The Minnow Support Project is run by a crew of people who have gone through a variety of steps. Some just help the bot, others help new people, and some have gone on to create sub communities within PALnet and are working on larger projects such as a steady supply of podcasts from "the (minnow) Pond," poetry contests, writing support, and a steady stream of howtos.
You can find a great recent example of being an awesome minnow from @melkay and her #womenofsteemit tag.
She's helping to create a sub community for women with the PALnet Discord server along with fellow Minnow Support Project members to help get women up and running and a supportive team around them. It doesn't take much digging on the internet to find incredibly abusive people with an extra degree of spite towards women. It's nice to see a community take shape and offer positive vibes and help. I'm pumped to support her with a channel she has complete authority over in the PALnet Discord room and hope that her continued leadership helps bring more women to the platform.
@msp-lovebot
So, it's hard to argue with supporting good people like that. So, @msp-lovebot is here to help minnows that are giving back more than just the folks that stop in one time and leave. For now it's just a little dolphin, but here's hoping over time it grows and really kicks in.
It's likely we're going to hit our 2,000th person to come through the channel by Saturday. Hopefully you're one of them. It's pretty vibrant on here. If you're a minnow and you're not in the channel then I'd argue you're doing Steemit wrong.

I have never been so involved in a community. I have been there less than 7 days and I am already helping to moderate the Quiet space of the server (General chat can get hectic), and helping everyone I can when they come in.
Might be one of the best examples of humanity on the internet. Bar none.
New and small accounts, get in here.
That's the single most rewarding comment I've gotten since I started on Steemit. Thanks bud.
No less than you deserve for starting something this beautiful and productive. Now bask in my $0.01 upvote!
@discordiant - lmao $0.01 Upvote... Love it !!
HolySmoke! ... Now THAT was Funny !!
You create Bots, you create whales, you create happiness. It has been inspiring to see your work. I am a rare presence in chats due to workload and no free time. I do get to read your posts though and I am glad that in some way I am connected to a good person.
<--That, right there, was the most poignant description of honest Steemit "following" that I have ever read...
Very kind words . Thankyou.
PALnet has been a great place to spend time with so far. It's amazing how minnow or newbies could grow. I went through it myself. I love collecting the tiers in our discord channel. I love the bounties too. Most of all, i love the community we have created. Met great people there, a pretty amazing feat for a little guy like me. Keep it up boss @aggroed.
Mr @aggroed Sir. May I take this opportunity to thank you from the bottom of my heart for inviting me to play at PALnet. When I first approached you I was looking for a way to get sponsorship on my digital art contest. You invited me to this strange thing called Discord which I had never used before. I think I was in my 3rd week here and just about at 500 followers. I quickly saw the community taking shape around me and saw the potential, so I hung around like a bad smell.
I got involved, helped where I could and my followers 3 weeks later are knocking at the door to no.1000. I have had nothing but extraordinary growth and good things happen to me since I joined. The troops rallied behind me and helped me win @theprophet0's plane tickets to steemfest and your support here and everywhere else I have ventured has always been fantastic. Thank you. You are an inspirational community leader. I am not sucking up because I feel I should but because you have made me the steemian I am today and for that I truly thank you. Together with the awesome @swelker101 I look after the troops in my role as moderator at PALnet and I appreciate the responsibility you have given me.
Thank you @aggroed for everything. I need to also thank @ausbitbank and @canadian-coconut too for their support and regular upvotes. You have assembled an awesome team boss.
You're great for this place. I'm glad and grateful you're here!
Me at minnowsuppport I try hard to be in the channel and interact but can't connect on net most time.
This is awesome, #womenofsteemit is doing awesome things. Can't wait to see what's to come. I'm happy to play a small role :)
