Hellllo BitShares!.

As this is my very first post i would like to start by saying 'Hello Everyone'  and Thank You Bytemaster for delivering what i see as a very interesting platform with a bright future. I believe the Cryptonomex team and yourself have the vision and the drive to deliver a world class services for the masses and support you all the way.

I must confess to being a lurker on the forum, apologies....

I have been around since the PTS days although only started looking through the forum since BitShares was released. I’m not the biggest socialite but Brownie Points have brought me out of the woodwork, nice play BM; one day I want to show my kids that I had a transaction from the founder of BitShares :)

As for what I’ve done for the community; not as much as I would like. Although I am hoping to change this once 2.0 is released. C# library anyone?
I have written a few positive reviews, comments and spoken with users in the troll box on a few exchanges to spread the word, voted for BitShares in a number of polls and accumulate as much BTS as I can afford(I'm not a trader; I'm an investor); I also have a custom made BitShares coffee mug which i very proudly parade around my workplace.
I am the goto Bitshares guy at my local Bitcoin meetup in Australia and have considered asking Bytemaster to do a very quick presentation although given the work he has on at the moment might be better after 2.0 is launched.
I mine BitUSD via minebitshares.com and convert to BTS; I am contributing about 10%-15% of the hashing power of the X11 pool. - Thanks DSN - Great Service.
If you can find it in your heart to even send me 1 Brownie.PTS I would be a very happy man.

BROWNIE.PTS could also be used as the initial seed for reputation-based credit when we establish such a market (or at least one factor in setting initial credit limits). The un-collateralised portion of any loans is always at risk of non-payment, and is effectively backed by the borrower's reputation. Fraud is unlikely where the reward for non-payment is greater than the amount already contributed to the community, because there is disincentive to compromise the good reputation that has been so hard-earned.

can I get some extra PTS for 《BitShares 101》 version-cn?
this is what I did:http://www.bts.hk/tag/bitshares-101

 ;) ;) ;)

BTS ID:callmeluc

actually there is something more I didn't mention..
I‘m the leader of BTSAdvisors_CN, editor of bts.hk & bimin.cn, organizer of YY channel “sound of blockchain”,  organizer of Chinese delegates league,  administrator of more than 10 qq group about BTS. BitShares has become part of my career step by step since the first day I donated AGS. Promotion, translation, education, community organization, debate...that's what I did in the past, doing right now, and will do in the future.

have been involved for two years, made the PPA for bitshares-pts, then bitsharesx, bitshares, and now developing a PPA for bitshares2.0/graphene on ARM, x86, x86_64 for Debian, Ubuntu, Raspbian and images for Raspbian. I ran bitshares-xt (testnet) nodes and tested regularly. Contributed a couple bug fixes to the code and to the build system for pts, and different versions of bitshares.

My expenses have been covered by my delegate, so I don't want to take credit for that (and it probably was only a couple hundred dollars for server time)

My time for PPA maintenance, bug fixing, helping people on forums, and now creating bitshares SD card images is probably in the low hundreds of hours over two years (I spent >20 over the past two weeks just on engineering and bug fixing graphene on ARM processors alone)

I've maintained two delegate since shortly after release of bitsharesx.

What will these points be used for? I still don't understand. Some kind of reputation system? A very basic experiment for a rep system just to see how it works out?

What have I done for BTS? (more than some, less than others!)

I'm not too big on tooting my own horn as they say but it's a useful exercise to review and take inventory of involvement, so here is my list:

  • Provide 24 different price feeds
  • Maintain the verbaltech marketing delegate
  • Wrote a payroll distribution plugin for bts_tools to automate disbursement of delegate pay to multiple recipients
  • Invested capital to buy a stake in BTS
  • I'm writing The BitShares Saga, series of 5 books about BitShares & it's history
  • Maintain a website to promote the books and thus BitShares
  • Contributed to deepen community spirit thru participation (mumble, forum, PMs, BitShares tour...)
  • I've given of myself, particularly by time - easily 3 hrs a day on average, expressing opinions, ideas, here & elsewhere to further NAP & philosophy of freedom
  • Support others such as Beyond Bitcoin & Cryptosmith who offer important services to community
  • Brown Nose Contrarian: I challenge Stan & BM to remind them to stay true to the principles, ideals and vision they have been so vocal about from the beginning

I don't know how one with some many things on his plate could possibly take on a new experiment whilst not getting paid properly?

i'm not sure what your deal is newmine, but you sure spend an awful lot of time here bitching. Have a day off, it's 4th july weekend.
If you believe in the project stay, if you don't or fell you're getting the shaft then leave. Either way, IMO your posts are becoming a drag..
