Engagement stats of the Active users

^{Note- We request @neerajkr03 to introduce another column in SUT to indicate the weekly engagement stats of the Active Users.}

Existing Setup & the Problem Interface

Over the last few months, we adopted a flat curve to curate & reward the users using the Steemcurator07 account. The idea is to motivate all and to encourage all to keep on producing quality content in line with the rules and guidelines issued by Steemit Team.

We generally used to vote two posts per user each week using 07 account.

However, over the last few weeks, we have observed that a few users are exactly posting two diary posts per week and not even engaging with others, the number of comments stands nil in the case of few users(Refer to the Engagement stats of the Actives Users).

This sort of social activity only resulted in an increased number of parallel posts. If the engagement becomes poor, then it does not foster a sense of community and does not build a social platform either.

Therefore we need to trim down the number of parallel posts and for that the existing setup to be replaced with a new setup in which the reward and curation will be proportional to the engagement activities of the users.

We should push for a strategy that can ensure an interconnected web.

Furthermore, the curators are not leaving any remarks/feedback/suggestions in the comment section even when there are shortcomings in a post. The curation must positively iterate the activities in Steem Blockchain. Curation is like a follow-up strategy for continuous improvement, therefore leaving remarks after voting is necessary.

Proposed Setup

• Those who only publish their diary post in #betterlife, or other initiatives and do not engage with others (and those who exactly publish 2 diary posts per week, and do not visit others) will get a max upvote weight of 15% from the Steemcurator07 account, and a max of two posts per user shall be curated.

• Those who publish their diary posts(or other initiatives) and also visit others will get up to a maximum upvote weight of 45% from the Steemcurator07 account, and a max of two posts per user shall be curated.

• The total nos of active users this week stands at 43, so the curators are requested to optimize the resources and cover all the users in two days(i.e. 05th & 06th April).

• The curators are requested to pay attention to the engagement activities of the users(refer to the table). If the engagement activity of a user is poor(e.g. 0,1,2, etc) then the curators should not use an upvote weight of more than 15%.

• After voting a post the curators must leave a comment with feedback/remarks/suggestions.

Important Note

• Indian community gets two days' time to curate with 07 accounts (Monday & Tuesday). So curators are requested to make sure that VP does not sit idle.

• Please curate serially. The objective of this post is to ensure effective & organized curation with the Steemcurator07 account and to ensure better co-ordination among the curators. The curators should leave a comment on this post once they finish curation. For example, Sl No 1-14 Curated by Curator1 Date 05/04/2021.

• Be aware of spam/plagiarized content. Use appropriate tools to detect such posts. (There have been many such instances of plagiarism of late).

• Curate Steem Exclusive content only.

Conclusion

We request all the active users to visit each other's posts, without that we can not form an interconnected web, which is essential to build a social platform.

The new curation strategy will encourage all of our active users from now onwards as more reward will flow to those who engage with others.

Finally, we assure Steemit Team that curation with 07 account from now onwards will be effective and more organized than ever. We hope that with this new strategy we will be able to trim down the number of parallel posts.

Thank you.

Any suggestion, feedback to improve this structure of curation schedule is always welcome. Please leave a comment if any active user's name is not included in this list.
