Comment of the Day #11

in #comment • 8 years ago

New rules added:

I will also nominate comments.

The users submitting the winning nominations will receive a shared reward of 20% of the SteemPower these posts generate as SteemPower onto their accounts.

Still same % votes on all nominations
Now Top 5 Comments

Guidelines

-Quote the comment you feel is worthy of a bigger reward (can not be your own)
-Add a link to the original in the same comment (you get a permalink of the comment by clicking on the time next to the username of the comment)
(example: )
-Vote for your winners and feel free to change the weight of the vote when checking other's suggestions as well
-I will vote up the suggestions with the same % (currently 5%) as to not interfere with the decision of who wins but reward the effort

Comment of the Day nominations will now last 1 week so readers can vote and nominate the winners on a wider timeline. That means the decision of which top 5 comments won will be made after the posts payout in 1 weeks time.

Feel free to add more comments to the older ones starting from #4 with the day of the comments on the right posts and vote accordingly on nominations.

Also the voting from me on the winning comments which was thought to be an "added bonus" after the won Steem Dollars might be removed or lowered since it uses up a lot of voting power and the SB the winners receive might be enough.

Reward Split

Top 5 daily comments will be rewarded by the posting rewards of this post and by a vote from me and my curation trail.

-40% of the SteemDollars will go top comment #1, 25% to top comment #2 and 15% to top comment #3, 12.5% to top comment #4, 7.5% to top comment #5

The users nominating the Winning comments will receive 10% of the SteemPower the post generates. (might increase over time)

    I found a great example of one steemian helping another. @fisteganos gave this thoughtful response when he was asked for advice on how to be successful here.

    "Oh wow! Ok so I just went through your blog and I must say this. I joined Steemit when we were basically restricted to only four posts every 24 hours (defaulting led to a cut/tax on payouts) so I was forced to prioritize quality of quantity.

    Now once you've decided to choose quality, you have to determine quality in what aspect? I tend to be a creative writer so I do poetry and fiction and rant (sometimes on stuff i'm not even going through). So yeah that's my forte and you'd need to find yours.

    Thirdly, this thing takes time! I've been here since January but even that is dwarfed by folks that have been here since May/June 2016. So when you see the $100 posts, stay calm and let it act as motivation to increase the quality of your posts.

    The most important (I dare say) is interaction. Taking the time out to read people's posts and dropping thoughtful comments is one value all Steemians should have. Interaction like this brings joy to the author and also makes the community know that you exist.

    You could also scout around for contests that you can enter for. This also makes more people notice you. Really, no man is an island.

    There's also Steemit.chat which is a very good place to share links to your posts. Mind you, because voting power reduces with every vote cast, people won't really be open to the idea of voting on five different posts from you alone in a single day. So that's why it's always nice to try to limit yourself to a max max of four.

    I think these are the basics. Read all you can, drop comments, be social. Make friends. Let people know you. Share stories. This is a community. A community of people!

    By the way, i'm not there yet lol. This post just happened. You can check out my previous posts to see the real picture but even to me, this post is a motivation.

    Thanks for the opportunity to share a piece of my mind. I'll follow you right away and hope to see you soaring in a couple of weeks."

    It was really cool of you to take that time to give a new person some really excellent advice. The part about interaction is what really stood out. You nailed it! I don't always have time to leave comments but I have been following you for a while and really enjoy your posts and the positive way you interact with people.

    I really hope you win this contest!!!!

        Nominating @cm-steem for his great post in my intro to the Patientory ICO.

        Especially considering if this is a public blockchain I could download the data and perform offline attacks on it as opposed to having to exfiltrate the data from a target before performing a similar attack.

        This provides high availability for storage, but comes with the risk of data exposure. There's also the reality that ransomware can encrypt your local blockchain files, the only defence is that other users are maintaining the network haven't been hit by it (unless the ransomware was to propogate through the P2P network).

        I'll keep my eye on this project though, good find.
