#palnet

Be a PAL?

Assuming the airdrop has reached the active members of the community, there are going to be a lot of the engaged types with PAL tokens.

And that sounds like a good thing for me! As long as I'm powering up my PAL and using the #palnet tag.

The other day I claimed my 1322 PAL tokens from https://steem-engine.com/ and immediately powered them up, and I hope that this is what many of the accounts I follow and support have done also.

Double-dip?

I'm not a prolific content creator, a scammer, or a greedy person, and so one post a day will do me for the most part. And unless I am posting for utopian, via https://steeditor.app/, my go-to posting app is https://busy.org/. Busy reward you with one vote a day which is weighted depending on the summed SP of your followers. Well, I might not have the largest accounts following me, but I have lots of mid-range accounts there, and this vote currently stands at over $1.

I have no clue where PAL or palnet.io will take Steem, and so for now I will continue to take this busy.pay vote and will add the #palnet tag to each post.

If you didn't sample these as a kid you missed out - and probably have nice teeth

As far as I am aware this is OK, although it does feel a little cheeky. I think too much about what is right, and should just get on with mining all the tokens I can. I mean, it's not like I am a top 10 witness posting 5/6 un-engaging pieces of content a day from 5/6 different accounts and self-voting the lot of them.


PAL Buyer

99 STEEM in, 1000 PAL tokens out - that's the plan anyway.

I hope to see the #palnet tag on many of my buddies content going forward - more PAL for me, especially with 50/50 author/curator in play.


Other stuff

UK

I've spent the last week at my brothers house in the north west of England. It's been nice to see him and his wife again and since I saw them last time, the family has grown as they've acquired a couple of very fluffy cats. These cats are housebound as they live on a fairly busy road which continues to dispel the myth that moggies have 9 lives.

Talking about the outside, absolute rubbish. It's rained since I arrived, and the 7 day forecast is rain, rain, rain. I don't know how people do it, and I'm already working out my next escape plan, even though it could be years away yet.

Next week is my Grandad's funeral, and following that I will be heading a little further south (not far enough for a change in the weather) to the city of Nottingham, close to where my daughter lives. I want to attempt to find work here first of all, and if there is nothing doing, I will look further afield.


MORDHAU

Is anyone playing this? My brother kindly bought me this one on Steam the other day and I've been getting my legs and head chopped off frequently. His wife also plays and so we have a group which helps a little, but the game is tough, and gory. Despite looking like an total hack and slash, it's very tactical and pretty damn difficult to begin with, which is why I'm getting my ass kicked.

# Not me, this guy is actually killing people.

@exyle spoke today regarding Steem being a MMO, and mentioned the amount of time he'd spent playing WOW without anything to show in real life for it. I feel the same about Battlefield 2 and video chat rooms, and these days I do try to limit the time I spend gaming. Steem has the game feel, and the potential to improve your real life too. Priorities, priorities.

Have a nice day all, speak to you soon

Cheers

Asher

    I did collect my small airdrop from PAL, and I'll probably start using their front end to post... or at least add the tag to my posts, as I really do like SteemPeak. I was a bit sad to see that a lot of people (evidently) were immediately trying to "make bank" by cashing out... seems pretty short sighted, but so it goes. I guess that's the nature of this "beast" we are playing with.

    Don't float away! All that rain can't be good for anyone!

    Dyou not have to post via palnet to get yer PAL rewards?

    I've staked mine too but I just don't get how it works

    Ironically someone may have explained it but I am sick already of seeing the PAL crowd get massive payouts for writing about PAL so I haven't been able to face reading anything.

    It's just pointless, everyone saying the same thing.

    Not an auspicious start.

    At least it can only get better!

    I'm sorry to hear about your grandfather.

    Rain in England? NO!!! Should have traveled to Ireland, we've had sun for the past few days, a week of rain before that and sun again for two weeks before that! How'd ya like them apples?

    I'm only just done 'studying' about Palnet, and got the tokens. I love what's going on on Steem-engine :) I like to have more options when trading. Binance gets boring after a while haha.

    Well, good luck on the job-hunt!

  • @whatsup(76)· 2637d

    Palnet is great a sporklet of sorts, I can't wait to see what other sites develop as well.

    UK sounds terrible, or at least the weather does.

    I can see the game reference with Steem. :)

  • @riverflows(82)· 2637d

    I hope ive been airdropped, at a post a day and comments i think im bloody active lol. Mate, ya gotta earn. Hardly double dipping.

    I wonder if Busy/Steempeak can offer us more tags to cope with token tags?

    Sorry to hear about Grandad. I was shocked to hear how long it took before funeral arrangements can be carried out in UK (two deaths in family tjere this year) ... here its 10 days. It will be lovely closure for you all and to see him off with stories and family. Hope it goes well.

    All of it.

    Greetings @abh12345,

    Thank you for posting ....lovely post!

    Oh yes....recevd the drop and staked straight away.

    ......as yours was the first account bleujay recognised.....here at Palnet.....I thought I would stop by and say 'Hello'.

    All the best.

    Cheers!

    NB All good fun!

  • @cryptkeeper17(65)· 2637d

    Like to see you have climbed aboard @abhi12345. I am certainly not a whale here on palnet, steemit, spt (splintertalk), busy or any of these sub-hash tags but it's very exciting that we get a steemit stalwart like yourself on board for the voyage. Best of luck keep up the excellent work.

  • @mikepm74(67)· 2637d

    It's a grand experiment. I was lucky enough to buy a bit cheaper than yourself... 0.05 I believe, so I am up to 2520 PAL. I am interested to see how it all shakes out with the vote value. Currently with 2520 PAL my vote does not move the needle (though fractional PAL are coming), but I wonder if there is some sort of calibration taking place behind the scenes and our votes will have more value over time.

  • @bashadow(70)· 2637d

    Those grey skies do suck, at least here in Alaska we finally left the grey skies, now just have to deal with the fire skies, lots of lightning strike fires, but mostly small one for now. Hope your mother is fine, the weather may or may not improve but life will continue.

    I have been trying PALnet out, I use my ALT account to vote only on the PAL site, it runs a bit slow compared to steemit but it is doable. My ALT account pretty much does nothing but vote. I did get my airdrop and power it up for this account, but I forget sometimes to use the #palnet tag on post, such is life.

    Could be an interesting summer, people will either be pleased in two or three days, or not, with palnet. First payouts and all should be soon.

  • @tj4real(69)· 2638d

    I have powered up myself and enjoying how things will turn up. I very much agree with the busy part. I also have some rewards i dont want to forgo from busy

  • @abitcoinskeptic(75)· 2638d

    I hope they will live in harmony but palnet could collapse, spinoff, or eventually outshine. My guess is siphon value and slow collapse. I sold all mine immediately. It's gone up since then... but then again I could have sold Steem for 5 usd each or eth at 1000 each at one point.

    But to make you feel better, it did rain yesterday.

    I powered up my pal but forgot to use the tag. Oops!

    Like you, I use busy at the moment and don't see that changing for the foreseeable. Of course, my upvote from them is nowhere near the heady heights of $1 but it's still a sizeable one in my little corner - about 25c I think.

  • @simplymike(69)· 2638d

    I think the entire Palnet thing is making things a lot more complicated. I've been posting through busy too, while using the palnet tag - but I didn't really know what to think of it. I always value your opinion, and in this case it seems to be rather similar to mine, although you seem to be a bit more positive about it. I'll take that with me.

  • @alokkumar121(82)· 2638d

    can I ask you.. If I use PALNET tag in all my post then will I earn PAL tokens ? or anything else need to do ?

  • @soyrosa(75)· 2638d

    Gave you a 100% upvote at 993 PAL Power, and still no idea what that gives you :’) We’ll have to wait a few days for the system to callibrate. I had some luck trading some ‘extra’ PAL, with the profit I bought 1/10th of the PALMM, still no idea why as it doesn’t seem to give out much but I like experimenting.

    Good luck with the weather in the UK - I guess it will feel like a temporary thing as long as you live there #sunonyourmind

    Ha ha, don't blame you m8. I'm scratching my head and racking my brains on how to scrabble together a few grand to travel SE Asia pre or post steemfest 4! Not sure it's gonna happen tbh, but I want to escape from blighty as well. Preferably forever ;-)

    P.s. that game looks pretty cool, I might check it out.

  • @celestal(73)· 2638d

    That double-dip tip is a good one! Not sure if you knew already, but earning PAL is possible even without doing the upvotes through the PAL interface. As long as the post has #palnet tag, any vote with Steem Power - as long as you have PAL staked - will also use Pal Power.

    Convenient.

    Staked mine already, 612 that I got from the claimdrop, and now I'll be earning PALs without even needing to change my Steem behavior much at all. I don't think I'll be buying any, I will just keep what I already have, staked, and see how it turns out on the long run.

    I do try to limit the time I spend gaming. Steem has the game feel, and the potential to improve your real life too. Priorities, priorities.

    It's a bit of a weird thing, but I rarely even want to play any games anymore. They just seem to not do much for me anymore. An exception to this is when playing with friends, but to play by myself I would have to kinda force myself, which would be just weird, hence I can't really bother.

    I'll just keep playing on Steem, since it has proven to have a fundamentally positive impact on my life.

    It shocked me how many people dumped their airdrop for pennies. Am I a bad person for buying a bunch of it? lol Seems like you give everyone a fair chance and a majority of people will simply waste it. Power up and PAL ON

    One step at a time mate. It won't rain everyday.....quite.

    I also staked my PAL so you do have the support of a 662 PAL account :) Rather worthless at the moment :( I do see it as an expirement and it comes in handy to prepare the proposed 50/50 split in HF21. I do regret that they have giving so much PAL to the moderator of minnowsupport. Around 20 accounts did get 30K PAL. A vote of them is worth a shitload of PAL tokens. But without the support of them, like myself, you can almost forget it! If we look at the trending and hot page, the will the posts they voted on and to be honest it looks like a .... Let me just stop here before I am becoming to negative!

    Condolences with your granddad.

    Cheers, Peter

  • @meesterboom(81)· 2638d

    I have always thought of Steemit as being like an mmorpg. It's the best way so as to so you going mad.

    Lol, you know, the weather was fine till you arrived. I mean .. I'm no scientist but could there be a link? Are you to blame?
