Thanks for the plaudits but I dont feel im very knowledgable on Steem.. yet any way. Im only 5 weeks old here, but I do try and respond to everyone and all messages.

As for whales, yes they can destroy your reputation number but not necessarily your credability or SP. I dont interact with any so my knowledge there is minimal.

There is a lot of growth potential and I love these peeps who do good articles and teach me something thats out of my sphere of knowledge.
