I only vote for witness that I have really dug into. It’s something that is important to me. If you are looking for a good example list of where to start, check out abh12345 list on steemd.com.. he has pretty high standards of who he votes for.. probably higher than my own. Haha.
Witnesses are those that are essentially incharge of making sure the blockchain runs correctly.
Are you on discord yet? If not, I would suggest joining.. it’s sort of the chat rooms of steemit. I will see if I can find you a good article on what a witness is though.
Thanks. I appreciate the help. I'll look for abh12345 too.
I've never been a discord user and unfortunately, I very very rarely in an environment that would be conducive to chatting on discord. Am I going to be severely handicapped if I don't get on discord?
