As we've seen communities are finally here! (3) years or so and from day one I've been waiting for all this to take shape.

Also, make sure to follow which new communities come out here in the [Community Announcement](https://steemit.com/trending/hive-122359) community. But without further delay like to bring out my newest community called the Introduce Yourself Community here:

https://beta.steemit.com/trending/hive-163741

So if you are new here drop a "Hi" in there to meet other Steemians! Perfect for Tronians just joining.

This is all part of a much bigger picture being put together and will be a two-pronged approach as this can also be used in the User Help community here:

https://beta.steemit.com/trending/hive-117796

This community will have a group of helpers who will answer questions from people who need help on Steem. Join if you are ok with answering questions from future noobs and I'll eventually give you a "role" reflecting it along with future pay.

Future of Communities IMHO:

What we don't see yet is the future addition of SMTs which is Steem's smart tokens. I believe it will play an integral role with communities and as we go along for the user help community we'll be able to reward our mods/helps in with Steem or our own SMT token. It helps make it worth their time to help people out. This will come out of sort of a "*mini-reward pool*" inside the community itself. Rewards will be dished out based on the aggregate total post rewards in the community with a % going to mods. It will be interesting to see what features are added in the future.
