Achievement 6 Task by @pratikjumle29 : Understanding Curation and Community

Hello my all dear Steemitians i hope you all are fine and achieving your goals!
My name is Pratik Jumle and I'm from India. I have completed my all previous achievements from 1 to 5 (task 1,2,3&4). And now i have reached the end of achievements. I have struggled alot and also learnt alot while completing all this achievement. Now as a beginner i can say that i gained a good knowledge about steemit platform and its cons. And specially i want to thank my mentor @sachin08 for his valuable guidance throughout all the achievements. He's really a good guy , he's so humble and polite.

Now coming back on the topic of achievements this are the my answers for the questions asked by @crptokannon for the completion of Achievement 6:

Q.1.: Do you understand how voting and curation work in steemit?
Ans:

Yes i understood that the voting is done by users and pool reward system (fixed reward pool) is used for the voting purpose.whereas only good quality content attracts most of users votes and this reward pool is distributed to the only usera who posts good content without plagiarising. The payout is equally distributed as 50% goes to the author and the remaining 50% goes to the curators, and also the rewards you distribute from the reward pool system depends on the steem Power you have in your account.

Also voting on steemit uses voting mana. Voting mans is like an energy bar and the strength of your vote depends on the percentage of your voting mana, It means that if I vote with the 100% of voting mana, I will get more rewards than when I'm voting with 50% of voting mana. The voting mana goes down little bit every time you vote, but don't worry as the network recharges it by 20% every day.

You can also upvote and downvote just like as we do likes and dislikes on Facebook app (a social media platform) And you can vote with different strengths, only if your Steem is up to 500 which a slide bar will appear for you to select your voting strength. Getting active/engaging in a content such as upvote, downvote, Comment, reply, etc is known as curation.

Q.2.: What happened if you vote a post before 5 minutes marks after posting?
Ans:

If we voted a post before 5 minutes, a certain percentage of the rewards goes to the curator while the other percentage remains in the reward pool.
The breakdown is as follows:

When you vote a post at the very early moment of posting, 100% of the curation reward will remain in the rewards pool.
But at the first minute, the curator receives 20%, and 80% remains in the rewards pool.
At 2 minutes, the curator will get 40%, and 60% remains in the rewards pool.
At 3 minutes, the curator will get 60%, and 40% remains in the rewards pool.
At 4 minutes, the curator will have 80%, and 20% remains in the rewards pool.
And finally when you upvote a post at 5 minutes or may be later than 5 minutes then 100% of the curation reward will go to the curator.

Q.3.: Who will you vote for Steem Witness ? and Why?
Which community will you join in Steemit, and why?
Ans:

I will surely vote for the @steemchiller for steem witness.

The main reason is he created the SteemWorld.org which is a very helpful and easy to understand and use platform. steemWorld.org help me a lot to navigate throughout the steem ecosystem. You can do a whole lot of things on this platform as it is simple easy to use.

Communities I'm willing to join on steemit:

I have joined 2 communities till now and I will join more communities based on my interest and hobbies.
First of all, I joined Newcomers' Community and it helped me alot in understanding steemit platform and other usefull tools on steemit. I also joined Best of India because I'm from India and i love to read daily blogs and surely in future i will start posting in this community too.
Also I will join the steemit crypto academy as beginer to learn more about cryptourrency and its trading.

Thanks for reading..
