Currently, we are continue providing a reward of 50 steem per month to our moderators who are handling and managing the contest for their time and efforts. These rewards are provided by the community admin from his personal resources and community funds are not used for this purpose. In addition, we allow moderators to post their own content and courses so they have chance of getting curation by steemit team.

Contingency Plan

SIZ has already made its contingency plan in case main admin decides to leave the community or we lost our keys.

  • The accounts keys are stored at 3 different places including hardware devices, paper storage and cloud storage. The details are shared with 3 moderators.
  • In case, @cryptokraze decides to leave the community, the power will be shifted to @vvarishayy (Country Representative of Pakistan) who can handle the community in an effective manner.

Community Curation Account @siz-official

  • Our community curation account is @siz-official that is being used to curate members posts.

  • The curation account has total effective Steem Power 45,230. The community account own SP has been increased from 12,689 to 15556 which is a significant increase of 22.59% from last month. There is 29,673 steem power which is delegated to the community by generous delegators.

  • The founder @cryptokraze has been delegating most of his Steem Power (94%) to community curation account to grow it (currently delegated 10,000 SP to @siz-official)

  • All the rewards received in form of SBD are being converted into steem and turned in to steem power. We have not withdrawn a single steem from the community account so far. Delegation rewards and contests prizes are transferred through community official Grand Rewards Pool (@siz-rewards) which is financed by the founder @cryptokraze and our sponsor @qasimwaqar.

  • The curation account access is given to 2 other moderators (@vvarishayy and @suboohi) who are handling the contests so they can vote on contests entries and other good posts in community.

  • Voting CSI score for curation account is 13.2 according the Steemworld data as shown in below picture. We are not self voting and this is indicated by 0% self vote on steemworld data base. We will always use the curation account to vote on members posts.

  • Although we faced reduction of 6800 SP when one of our delegator removed his delegation due to unknown reasons but we have still managed to bring our Steem Power back to 45,230 which is more than last month.

  • We have grown our SP significantly this month by powering up and receiving more delegations and doing voting on almost all the posts. If some posts got skipped that might be due to extra load but we check the payout section of community posts so any post reaching payout deadline will get voting. We can say that almost 100% of the posts in community are getting voted by curation account.

Improvements Shown by SIZ

We understand that Booming support was given to communities so that they can show improvements. We are mentioning about the improvements that are done by SIZ community since we got September Booming Support.

Collaboration with Steem Skillshare Community

We have successfully made collaboration with Steem Skillshare Community which is a significant development and it will result in providing great educational platform on steemit and members will learn and receive more support leading to better steem ecosystem.

Focus on Content

We have achieved focus of community content to IT and Technology category. We have instructed the members to post only Educational Tutorials and SIZ approved Courses. The community is looking significantly improved from last month in terms of content.

Removal of Repetitive and Random Content

One of the observation was random and repetitive content in SIZ. So, we have removed cooking recipes, diary games and all random topic posts from the community. This has significantly improved community outlook and purpose that is based on educating and empowering people through IT/Tech Tutorials and courses.

Improvement in Effective Steem Power

We have increased 22.59% of our community steem power taking it to 15,556 and have taken our community total effective steem power to 45,230 SP now which is a significant improvement.

International Members Participation

We have increased International members subscription and participation in the community by organizing contest (Refer A Friend) to encourage other countries people joining and posting in SIZ. We will continue to do this to attract more people from other countries.

Posting Guidelines to Get Support

We have provided separate guidelines to community members if they want to get voting support. This has significantly improved the quality of the content in community.

Guidelines for Plagiarism and Warning System

We have implemented the Plagiarism Warning System and provided guidelines to the community members so that they can avoid posting plagiarized content.

Why SIZ should Get the Support?

We have improved many things since last month that is shared above and we believe in continuous improvement to make a better ecosystem.

SIZ community members are making more efforts to provide educational content specially SIZ approved courses. Their efforts should be recognized though the voting support. In this way, we will get more members starting valuable tutorials and courses globally through our collaboration with Steem Skillshare community and it will ultimately help achieve the community main goal that is to empower the people to learn some great skills that will help them in their life.

Since, the community have started, the founder @cryptokraze has used all his steemit rewards to grow the community and support the members through contests and other support programs. We have not withdrawn a single steem since this community is started and @cryptokraze has used his personal resources to run various SIZ Projects.

SIZ has always encourages #steemexclusive content in our community and we will not allow cross posting in our community.

Lastly, we assure steemit team that we will not use any kind support for our personal gains. All the support received will be used to grow the community and support the hardworking members as you might have observed from our September activities.

The main objective of Steem Infinity Zone is to empower people and we need your support to make a positive impact on lives of many because 1 small vote can worth huge for some student who is struggling to manage his study expenses or a housewife who is finding it hard to manage expenses oh her children.
