RE: Contest | 25-Word Comment - Monkey Business | Hibernating

in STEEM FOR BETTERLIFEyesterday (edited)

The last comment contest had only 2 entries. Did everyone die? No one has questions if it comes to SP? I find it amazing but even if this is the case how come no one is willing to share his knowledge with others? Come on people my time is as precious as yours.

In the community ᔕᑕᗷ ᗰOᑎKEY ᗷᑌᔕIᑎEᔕᔕ you might find topics you like to know more about. I wrote about Who Benefits if A Prize is Paid in SP and if no one cares I might switch to that system as well since I already have the answer.

Let me know if it's fine you receive SP as a prize/reward instead of Steem or UVF/SBI
@kafio @rashid001 @abdullahw2 @saintkelvin17 @jiva34 @jiya99 @liasteem @sterii @tezzmax @rissi @pousinha are you fine with it? What if the curators reward you with delegated SP instead of Steem just a few every time?


Last week's winners are

@clarvin and @bluelavender - 2 UVF each (the more shares you have the better and you can earn them as well by using boylikegirl.club site and join their weekly contest (easy peasy).

Thank you ✨

Honestly, I don't really understand, which one is better for us to receive as a gift? Is it SP, UVF or upvote Curator or Booming? I hope maybe someone can explain to me.

Let me explain it to you.

Steem

If I give you 10 Steem you have a crypto. You can choose what to do with it. You can use it to power up or you can change it and buy something for it.

Booming Upvote

If you are nominated for a Booming Upvote your name is written on a form and if the Steemit Team agrees you receive a high upvote. This upvote will be partly steem and partly steem power (SP).
The steem power powers automatically up, the steem is for you and you decide what you want to do with it.

SP

No one can give you SP (steem power). I can borrow you SP if you have nothing and are new so you can post, upvote, edit your posts, write replies and redeem the money in your wallet. Everything you do on steemit uses SP except reading.
If I borrow you SP I delegate it to you but it remains mine. You can't power it down and change it into Steem and buy something from it.
What I delegate I can take back any minute.
Some delegate for free (steemians to communities) and there are rich steemians you can pay and they delegate Steem to you for 1 month or 2 as long as you like and pay them. The only plus is you can give higher upvotes to others (unless you self-vote).

UVF or SBI

Both are investments. If you have them (the more the better) you receive an automatic upvote on your post. How much depends on how many you have, how frequently you post it may be clear that if you just posted, you will not receive it again if you post 5 minutes later (or you must have a lot).

As I returned 1 year back I posted and I received upvotes from SBI and those who automatically upvote me. Some are Steemians no longer active. It is a nice extra to know that even if no one upvotes you, you can still earn a bit with what you post. That is what UVF (the UpvoteFund) and SBI (Steem Basic Income) are about.

If you have more questions, please ask.

Thank you very much for the explanation my dear friend. Now I start to understand about Steem, SP, UVF.

This means that each of them has its own advantages.

Later if I'm confused, I'll ask again. 😊

Hi. I don't understand this either... Hope someone explains it...

I just answered, so have a look and let me know if you understand it more now or have more questions.

Thank you. I don't know how you understand so many things so easily. It must be IQ. I'll still be trying to figure this out a bit. But your explanation does help a lot.

Am surprised you received 2 entries and I think alot of people ignored the contest intentionally and I keep on wondering why, are there attention drawn to somewhere else?

I prefer steem/steem power reward than delegation except the delegation is almost massive. Two years ago a moderator organized a contest and made delegation the reward, I even thought he was going to share that amount of steem power delegation to us directly as steem power.

My steem power wasn't up to 2k then, I rushed to participate in the contest and gave it my all only fore to finally realize at the end that it was delegation rewards not steem power reward 🤧. I think I didn't win as well.

Such reward is impressive anyway and newbies love it alot especially the ones that have full knowledge about it. About the poor turnout of steemians, I believe with time more steemians will participate in this contest.

I try to understand what you wrote, so let's take it step by step...

  1. Why people didn't join this contest?
    Can be they hate me, can be someone else offers more, can be because it's December, can be I didn't translate the topic, can be those who always joined left, can be the community is falling asleep, can be they don't like commenting.

  2. I prefer Steem/an investment above a delegation.
    I know I will rarely check if I received it and if so if it's still there. Imagine I have a long list of 2 SP delegated. Will I miss it if someone takes all the delegations away? No most likely not and if so what can I do? I can ask how or what but I won't get paid, receive a refund and if the account is powering down.
    The benefits of an investment (SBI/UVF) I immediately noticed as I returned. I receive upvotes for what I post also from those who automatically upvote me, old Steemians. I am sure you would be happy too if anyone would do that for you.

  3. SP as a reward
    It's only this year I noticed SP was set for a reward instead of Steem.
    I still have no reply from those who did why they do this so the answer is clear to me and you confirmed it.
    The average Steemian has no idea and believes it is Steem so they cheer. For sure there are more like you who believe that it will be more than 2 delegated SP. A better prize would be a certain % of what the post will be rewarded with but that will not work if the post receives no upvotes (or perhaps it will and help people to understand that if they do not upvote the host there is no payout).

I don't understand what you mean with this:

newbies love it alot especially the ones that have full knowledge about it.

How can newbies have fully knowledge of the SP-delegation-deal? Why should they love receiving nothing?

As I understand now the only benefit is for the one who has to pay the prizes: no risk of losing the club, no risk of losing Steem.
If more Steemians will participate in contests where the reward is SP this means they will never level up, they have no Steem to power down or Steem to use._

  1. I think is because is December, this December seems to be affecting alot of steemians. The prize in a contest also play a very vital role so it seems they want it bigger.

  2. SBI is a very wonderful thing and is only one steemian that has done it for me, when he was trying to experiment something and he intends to do it again in the nearest future.

  3. Steem power reward started trending last year because alot of people didn't want to go out of a club but now that not being in a club isn't a serious issue I think some should continue sharing steem as reward.

The reason I said newbies will love a delegation reward more is because most of them don't have much resource credit to make numerous comments so getting delegation will help them and their rate of voting posts will be more better that period.

Saya rasa bukan karena benci teman.... contohnya saya, ketika di undang di kontes mana pun kalau waktu dan bahannya ada saya akan berusaha mengikutinya.

Tapi kalau waktunya mepet dan tak terkejar terpaksa saya abaikan semoga di kontes berikutnya saya akan ikut berpartisipasi.

Anda tahu? Terkadang saya tidak mengerti apa yang akan saya jawab mungkin pengetahuan saya kurang atau pun bahannya harus saya ambil dari internet.

Terus terang kalo mengambilnya dari internet saya khawatir takut salah dan kejadian seperti kawan saya, mengikuti kontes lalu salah menautkan sumber dan akhirnya terkena masalah dianggap plagiat.

Tanpa teguran /peringatan langsung dilaporkan ke sc01 atau 02, padahal dia pendatang baru dan masih tidak mengerti banyak hal, dan sampai sekarang dia tidak mau menulis lagi di platform steemit ini.

Padahal kalau saya lihat tulisannya sangat bagus dan berbobot ketimbang hasil tulisan saya yang mungkin sesuai dengan jalan pikiran saya sendiri yang menceritakan perihal apapun.

Well, this demands a bit of deliberation.
Perhaps, a voting poll might work on this; that's if it's possible to pull up one here.🤔
It's Just a suggestion.

I choose it all I don't discriminate as we all have the right to participate however it's up to you what you wish to do with your life or your account.

If someone wishes to support me with steem power or a delegation I will be happy as I didn't have that yesterday or before.

Some of us have never tried withdrawal from the steem it platform before because our accounts are so small and we wish to grow it to passive income, look at how many people are no longer on the platform anymore.

For me anything is welcome as beggars can't be choosers I digress not everyone is making $80 steem per post and yes some even die without having seen anything materialize from steem or their accounts. I don't really care because it only matters to those who actually gain something from the platform. Imagine what I will I do with 4 steem per month nothing!! it can't pay for my groceries. Eventually the best way is to try and invest from your personal savings because sometimes you don't even win the contests.

At least someone came out and tried to provide a way. So for me anything is welcome I am not rich and yes my time is yours as me and I will try for you.

One day maybe I can tell my children and have achieved something special but for now I believe I don't have any say in the matter it's just to pray trust in God and make steem it as fun as I possibly can for as many people as I possibly can.

The money is small so there's no point going on all over the place about it I am lucky to have time's I can even make at least $0.4 cent's on a post .

God bless you and your family may an abundance of wealth and wisdom fall upon all who read this note and blessings be upon you if this may even be the last time we ever succeeded in communication.
