It has been also a month of changes in the platform with the aim to achieve a better experience for the users of Steem and for the future reconstruction of the communities and support for the projects working in the platform, we have gladly announced the support received by the Steemit Team as part of their PoD Project, (Proof of Dedication). This represents a milestone for the group with the creation of the Knitrias Project Community, but is also a great compromise to continue improving our work. From the part of the Knitrias Project, thank you all, and keep on!!

Engagement

One of the most important aspects of the presence of every user in this platform is the interaction between authors and readers of the posts published on Steem. As we have discovered, the principal value which give the meaning for the tools created for this platform is the quality of the content and comments which add human appreciation of the work, this is commonly known as Proof of Brain. The value of every vote, along with the numeric price generated by the Steem Power from the curator, comes from the reaction as a reader of the content in the form of a comment.

There are different factors at the moment to cast a vote. We know the platform due to its nature works also with automation, or by curation trails which give support for authors. But is always positive the proof of human eyes reading and expressing a feedback for the creator of the content. This provides human interactions as emotions, knowledge, experience, advice, agreement or simply encouragement for the author to continue with the great work. Commenting brings also opportunity to create relations, projects and friendship.

Probably many of us have seen the many initiatives and projects promoting and rewarding discussion. The Knitrias Project is sponsor of the initiative of weekly posts by @Cmp2020, also is promoting the interaction initiatives by the Project Hope, the constant discussions and initiatives by the @SteemitBlog, and now we recommend the The talk channel, by @Xpilar.

There is good advice for creating great interactions in social media, everything comes with practice as it's important to improve in our comments because as we know they give value to the work of the author but also our comments can be rewarded. This of course creates a window for some abuse and spam or generic comments with the aim to be rewarded. From this Project we will be working harder to improve the quality and the quantity of the comments by its Members. Along with the voting strategy need to be working the concept of Proof of brain which gives its value to this blockchain.

Some aspects that differentiates a good from a generic comment begins with the reading of the post. A generic comment as "great post", "good work", "interesting post" or "I'm following you, follow back" could be considered generic and probably spam, these comments could be placed anywhere without proving the reading of the work they are commenting.

A good comment must include the impression on the reader relative to the content she or he is reading, some connection, some experience, surprise, likeness, agreement or even disagreement on the propositions. Sometimes a good question about the content is a proof of interest on the lecture of the work. Encouragement is fundamental for every author working on Steem, in fact part of the name of Steem comes not only from steam but from esteem, the necessary fuel which keeps creativity and interactions moving forward.

All Members are encouraged to improve their comments and also increase the efforts in commenting more on the fellow Members posts and others by users of the platform in general. We much appreciate the efforts of the Members already doing a good work on this subject.

Voting Strategy

This is a Call for all the Members to join the curation trail by the Knitrias Project. Last week it was set in the report a mechanism to subscribe to the trail by the @Knitrias account. @SteemingCurators also created a totorial to subscribe to a curation trail using the tool follow.steem.top by the Witness @Maiyude: How To Set Up AUTO VOTING On STEEMIT + Curation Trail Set up (Easy).

Some Members are not using their Steem Power at optimal capacity, we need to improve that, and the curation trail give us a chance to keep a good track on supporting the fellow Members on this project. The attention to this issue will be much appreciated.

Challenges for the week

Special Challenge: Interview with @Xpilar

This week we have a special challenge for the Members of the Knitrias Project. It will be and interview with the great Steemian @Xpilar, founder and administrator of the World of Xpilar Community. With almost four years of presence here in this blockchain, @Xpilar is one of the fundamental supporters of the work of many authors at this moment. His stances on the developments are always to seek the growth and creativity for all the members of his community and also he's participating in different curation project as Art-Venture. The challenge will consist in two stages:

First stage: (15 Steem Power equally shared between all participants)

In the first stage the Members will create a post with two main areas:

One.- Introduction with the most relevant information of the artistic work, his trayectory as influencer on Steem and the community work. Is recommended to take a look at the old posts and comments in the blog of @Xpilar.

Two.- Every Member will propose five questions for @Xpilar in the post. Relative to the different findings on the research or to the present or future projects.

This post needs to be published on the Knitrias Project Community. @Xpilar will be visiting the post and making a selection of questions for the second stage. A group of judges will determine the winer post.

Second stage: 15 Steem Power to the winer

The winer will make a second post with the interview for @Xpilar, this post will summarize all the main information on the posts from the first stage, and also will contain all the selected questions by @Xpilar. The prize will be received by the author once the work is published and @Xpilar answers The Interview.

@Xpilar is supporting the initiative and share 10 Steem for the prizes. Good luck for all the participant Members.
