Announcing @bacchist's Witness Exploratory Committee
I decided to dip my toes in the water, and look into what is required of a good witness. I've had a firm commitment to the platform since joining about 3 months ago. I want to see Steem thrive and flourish. Being a witness seems to be a good way to directly serve the community and platform, so I am setting out to learn what I can.

Tonight, I set up a witness node, as well as a seed node. Everything looks good so far, so I'm confident that I'm off to a good start.

I've noticed that this is the point where a lot of people start campaigning for people to vote them as witness. I think that's a bit premature in my case. I've got way too much to learn before I can consider a step like that. Therefore, I'd like to announce the creation of my Witness Exploratory Committee.

<center>https://www.steemimg.com/images/2016/10/07/exploratory155e6.png</center>

The purpose of this step is to learn everything I can and determine if it's appropriate for me to take further action. If I can acquire enough knowledge and identify areas where my contributions would benefit the platform, at that point I might wish to start actively campaigning for support.

In the mean time, I'd like to invite people to test out my seed node. I welcome any feedback that you might have. Thanks!

Just in case you hadn't seen it, @bitcalm wrote a really good article  on becoming a witness: https://steemit.com/witness-category/@bitcalm/how-to-become-a-witness . 

Best of luck, I think this is a great way to start :)

Welcome aboard the witness running's bacchist. Interesting idea with the exploratory. 

I've seen you do a ton of work against plagiarism here on the STEEM network and I'm sure that you'll find other ways to keep yourself busy around here while helping protect and grow the Steemit Empire. :D
