...because it gets you away from your blog.

This is such an important thing that you have explained. My least productive days on Steemit are the days I spend on my own blog. Sometimes, I get so many comments that replying to them comsumes all the time. But I think it's ok because I am still interacting with others like I am doing right now in this comment.

I just wanted to show our newbies a path which will lead to more motivation and engagement. Getting rewarded for good interaction induces better interaction.

Thank you for a beautiful comment.
