Damn mate, thanks for the data dump!
Re G+ Switchers - there are a few. Alan is @strategesis and he is migrating as well (albeit slowly). Trying to get the rest to share their ids so I can follow them. Most of them have been waiting for a viable APP that works consistently, but I can understand why there is little in the way of drive to make that product with the site still a beta product.
All my content tends to come from word docs and keep notes, with stuff on postimage as its the only one that creates links and hosting that I can actually use. That said, I like making memes and whatnot for my posts to rely on drive my points home. All that said, however, I'm sure there are improvements I can make to push the quality up, so I'll give your guy a shout once I get to a stage I can work from.
I'll get into GINA and this post in full for the use of steem currency once I have some :) My previous 100SBD balance is obviously defunct, and as there is no store for the password anywhere now, it is basically lost to the mysteries of the universe.
In the meantime I'll keep posting content and trying to find subjects I can engage in. The search features are a bit painful here, but fingers crossed I can find a thread to logically render into slag somewhere, and get some STEEM that way.
I've seen Alan's posts. They are very short or links to other content. That's frowned upon heavily here. He's not engaging either from what I can tell. It's like G+ in that way though, and you have to give it time to build up your follower base. GINAbot only costs .0001 SBD or STEEM, and you get it back. I'll transfer some to you.
Much obliged mate. I didn't realise just how much steem's currency impacts usage of the platform. Thankfully I have a lot of content to transfer over and rework slightly, so I can probably make a good go of this network.
Alan at the moment is I think bogged down and focusing on different activities than his own content currently, and as his influence is limited by steem levels it becomes tricky i think for him to engage as he would normally.
Yes, low SP means low bandwidth. That's also the reason I suggest people with low SP spend that bandwidth on engagement instead of authored posts. :)
Save your long and good content for later once you have some SP/Bandwidth.
