I thought we were given a bit of something free with the account --was it not Steem Power? If it was, it was very little of it then, wasn't it? :|

It was, but it was very little.

Oh, okay, well I hope I'll learn to earn that Steem Power soon then! Thanks @timcliff

:)

BTW is it okay that I upvoted my own comment up here? ^

It is allowed. There are differing views as far as whether it is good etiquette. Lots of people do it though, so it is up to you.

Also, when should I upvote stuff? How do I know if it is gonna bring --anyone-- any rewards?

time to go check those tutorials out eh? OMW! xD

The FAQ and welcome page both have a lot of good info.

Thanks a lot, I've been so tied up with all the innards of posting and curating that I've forgotten to actually go check those out... Nice reminder --and timely!
