Welcome to the 100th Edition of the Daily Qurator
Below you will find some awesome members of @qurator that worked hard to post some good quality content for all you awesome Steemians to enjoy!
The @qurator project was created to help give Steemians some extra exposure and awesome upvotes currently worth around $0.10 - $1.02!
Note: some of you have been curated twice since the start of the daily qurator and some have been curated only once. As the Daily Qurator is gaining fame with every passing day, many new steemians are asking/will ask to join us. So, expect to see posts from new users for now. When the opportunity arises, posts from older users will be curated once again
BUT First... A Few Words From @goldendawne and other @qurator staff members
In honor of our 100th edition of the Daily Qurator (DQ), we have some things to discuss before we get onto our daily five Qurites and their posts.
The first being one of the founding members of the Qurator- @scrooger. He is someone I have known less than 31 days, as he hired me to be a new writer for the DQ back on the 69th edition. I have never used his or my own posts in this newsletter, but in honor of his creation of qurator, qustodian (@boontjie) and all the other wonderful projects he involves himself with on steemit, I thought it was only right to make his newest post the top featured one in this special edition.
He has expanded the qurator staff in the last week and I wanted to share with you all some of their thoughts about qurator too.
Words from moderators and Qurator staff members:
@ewkaw
"I guess you could say I saw Qurator's birth and was the first member to join (right after the parents). Short after I was promoted to a Moderator position and now with other team members can help our Qurities to find their way around. The past 100 days was an awesome ride! To see it grow and change day by day and be able
to participate in all the improvements."
@brumest
"I have been with Qurator almost since day one, as a normal member. That gave me the chance to see it growing during all this time, and to realize that it's one of the most honest projects around. My experience as Moderator is quite recent though, but I see it as an opportunity to give something back to a community/project that never let me down."
@ackhoo
"It's good to belong somewhere... Especially when that somewhere is where good content is king... And members care to put hard work into their posts! Bonus is when they also become your friends. There are so many groups in steemit but I think Qurator is that little bit more special! And when everything falls in place and fits together as well as they do here, I think all qurites can say they are proud to be one! That "That's where I want to belong!" Steem on, friends!"
@em3
"I love Steemit and the potential that is here. I do get frustrated at times, and upvote bots have been a part of that skepticism. But when I read up on @Qurator I knew that it had something going for it!! A bot with standards and a human component is all right with me. 2-plus months now and I love it! Qurites all the way!!!"
@goldendawne
“I came to @qurator wet behind the ears in regards to steemit, cryptocurrency and all the other facets of this new world; and @scrooger took me under his wing and made my time as the writer for the DQ an amazing adventure and a LOVED position. He is an exceptional person and always puts the needs of other steemians before his own. Thank you @scrooger for seeing in me the writer that I knew I could be and for letting me expand my horizons within your staff, on qurator and as your friend.”
And finally, @scrooger,
“The Qurator project started 100 days ago and I never imagined we would grow as much as we did. We wanted to give support to all those who post original content and bring value to Steemit. Most of the new Steemians post their heart out, but starting off they do not have many followers or funds to use on upvote bots. Exposure and support was a problem. We knew we had to step in to support them and make sure they do not get discouraged by never getting any worthwhile upvotes. Even though our Bot handles all the upvotes. We handle all the account approvals. Human interaction is needed for content checking and no bot will ever be able to replace that.
Qurator is a community project and without the community helping us, we will never be able to help the community. I want to personally thank every member who helped us grow and achieve this awesome milestone of 100 days with Qurator. A big shout out to @gingerninja who started Qurator with me, our previous writer @theleapingkoala, our new writer @goldendawne and then our current team of moderators! You guys are the best and help so much! In the long run your support helps all the members of Qurator. Thank you everyone! We will keep working hard to give you the support you need and the upvotes you deserve!”

Feed Your Minnows BOT- FREE UPVOTE GIVEAWAY- Season 14 Registration- Some New Rules
@scrooger is always helping others advance on Steemit; whether through @make-a-whale, @qurator, @qustodian and help for ALL minnows. Make sure to stop over and see about the registration for season 14 of the giveaway!
Feed Your Minnows is a great project that @oleg326756 came up with where he would feed his Minnows (his awesome followers). He would make a post once a week and all the SBD earned by the post will be paid out to the registered Minnows.
This inspired me to make a Feed Your Minnows of my own, with a little twist of course!

The Amazon Rainforest
@philippbuxbaum has taken a journey that many of us may be only able to dream about. You need to see all the beautiful pictures he has shared with us in this post about the amazing Amazon rainforest trip he had.
Without doubt, the most impressive journey of my life! Just to be there, in the middle of nowhere is an amazing feeling. Disconnected from the city life, enjoying the moment, breathing the pure air and see all these animals and plants

Standing Still Whilst The World Spins
It's been such a long time, since I have found the calm in my chaos
Slowing down to enjoy life and what it has to offer is a lesson we all need to take heed in; and @fates has done just that.
When life gets busy we all have a way of pushing to see the light so much, that it feels like we are holding our breath, but it is until we learn to exhale that the world will shift into perspective again.
I now have more time, thus I have more control and I try to own it

HURRAY! The untalented Has Been Given A New Hope Through Steemit
A week ago, I solicited for support to get these talented young men football jerseys.Last year, I was amazed by how the played football in front of their compound. I saw raw talent that needed to be harnessed and if possible pushed to the top
Stop over at @onyemacourage's post to see how he made a difference in some young boys' life. He credits and thanks many steemians for their generosity in his efforts.

Internet Addiction- One Of The Common Problems Nowadays
Do you have IAD? Don't know what IAD is? Well, lucky for us, @thirdeye7 is here to explain it.
I have to admit after reading his post, that I do suffer from IAD... on occasion... sometimes... OK, more often than I care to mention. How about you?
Today I will talk about this internet addiction disorder facts... Many people spend a lot of time without knowing themselves on the internet. You may be surprised to know that this is also a type of addiction, which is called Internet Addiction Disorder or IAD

New Tiers Update
Streemian Trail Account is here!
![](https://steemitimages.com/DQmdMFoKsoRSCzK2ty4BR3ceqFE7BbfQBNrjLmX6vZ2sjhs/17.png)
You may have noticed that your upvotes from @qurator packed a little bigger punch! @scrooger and @ethandsmith are now trailing the @qurator account and will be sending you some extra upvotes from our side as well. It's not much but every upvote counts!
You can also follow the trail and send upvotes to fellow Qurator members when @qurator upvotes them. To set up a Streemian account only takes a few minutes and is a great way to earn some extra curation.
We suggest NOT following the trail at 100% since we do not want to drain too much of your precious voting power. Play around with your percentage and if you see your voting power being drained too much you can simply lower your % in Streemian. If you have a lot of voting power to spare you can consider a larger %.
If you need any help or have questions come visit our #support
channel on Discord.

Happy 100th Birthday @qurator! Thank you @scrooger and @gingerninja for starting @qurator. I was one who was becoming very discouraged and your support energized me to continue here on Steemit and to continue to give it my all. And thanks to all of the moderators and writers for your time; you all make up a great team. I am a happy and proud member and will continue to share the love. : )
Hi @whatisnew ... My sentiments exactly - Could not have said it better... I would only add @theleapingkoala to the list of encouraging people who gave me incentive to keep on Steemin...
Of course! We are all grateful for the support that we have received; past and present. : )
Thanks for all the kind words you guys! I am so stoked that the project is helping others and that they can feel the impact on their income and blogging! Awesome! =)

You are most welcome! It has been an interesting and very fun 100 days and we have grown so much since day 1. Thanks to you and all our supporters! We would not have come this far without you all sharing the love! Thanks! =)
