Hi @hgmsilvergold this post just threw this minnow silver-stacker into a tail-spin.
What about the minnows?
I thought I was already a member - I see that is not the case, so the rules are stringent?
Mandatory upvotes an resteems?
was that discussed or a arbitrary decision?

I do not comprehend the reason for mandatory actions for membership but I am a ghost honorary member who often (but not religiously) check the tag trend "steemsilvergold" #steemsilvergold
with upvotes to posts that I value as informative and occasionally will resteem.

I am a lil' sad, but no worries - I guess you have a plan and are following it.
I simply wish to remind you that silver-stackers like me (who focus on other topics) are out here and maybe you will make an intentional effort not to ignore and forget us.

Silver is my insurance policy
Sincerely, @ronmamita
