What Reputation Score Means to Me in Steemit

When I read THIS POST- https://steemit.com/hive-179660/@jyoti-thelight/hwc-contest-1-winner by Admin @jyoti-thelight about reputation score it certainly motivated me to write my own views and tell you all what I feel about and how I strive to get higher on the ranking board in steemit platform.

  
I know that every website grade their users by providing a specific sign in front of their user avatar which denotes his level, reputation and expertize. Some sites provide stars which increase or decrease depending based on fellow members' rating so does steemit that gives a reputation score that shows a member's rank.

When I joined this site 160 days ago, what I saw first was a blank user profile and a suggestion to write my introduction post. I posted my intro post which was well attended and the greeter suggested me to participate further and complete further beginners post which I did one after the another and did four of them which helped me reach a reputation score well into the forties. And of course these posts gave me lot of self confidence and knowledge that helped me to post in various communities.

My primary goal was to write fiction stories, finance and management related posts but I saw very little scope as I saw no such community. So I joined almost all active communities but I posted one in "Investment community". Maybe, I didn't tag it properly so no one took notice of THIS POST but I am thankful to @cryptogecko who replied to my post and gave me useful suggestions.

Then I saw a post from @arvind and I posted a similar one but then he was a highly ranked member so he gets support from various sources. However, I had tagged him in that post so he came and suggested me to take part in various contests.

Then I saw a post by @disconnect, that changed everything for me. This post has become my "GO TO" first thing as soon as I logged into Steemit everyday.

I have been taking part in at least 2-3 contests every week and getting points regularly. I know sky is the limit but I set my goal of increasing at least one reputation point every month once I reached at 60. I am pleased to say that it took me 3 moths to reach 60 but I reached 64 in next two months.

However, I am aware that after every reputation increase it becomes tougher and it needs more points to reach the next level but my goal is still the same, one every month. So, I am looking forward to reach 66 by the end of this year and reach 70 by the time I am one year old on this site i.e. May14th 2023.

No one's reputation can tell them whether they are a whale or a minnow.

I am very much interested to learn about all this but currently I am looking for "how to buy steem", as I am trying to do everything related to our wallet. I know how to send steem to other members (I practically did it).

How to support others in the platform, as I donated 50 steem that was offered to me by Colombia-Original which I donated to another member by refusing to accept it.

I know how to buy a lottery ticket to help others. Incidentally, I transferred my steem in a wrong account but they returned it and gave me the right address.

I know how to transfer steem to my outer wallet as I have transffered 5 steem to my personal account.

Same way, as soon as I learn how to bring funds into my wallet by buying steem I will bring a couple of thousands steems as I want to make my account powerful enough to support other worthy members. Incidentally I tried to send steem through https://poloniex.com/ but it never reached in my wallet so I guess I made a mistake somewhere while doing that.

(Any ideas how to do it are welcome) You can send me a message in discord (hindwhale community)

Thank You All

Your Friend dove11 wishing you all a very nice time on steemit platform.
