What I enjoy most about @williambanks is that he will take time to read your posts, and then provide his opinion and he is not afraid to go into detail. I have seen the longest comment threads on the platform when he comments :) , which means he takes time to consider a lot of thigs! He do not just comment by saying Great article or keep on posting.

@williambanks , thank you for the great idea of assisting our followers on the platform. Apologies for being so quite in the comment section but I literally had back to back meetings till late last night. I really hope this initiative assist with more followers. More to come soon!
No worries and thanks for everything!
Hope you'll drop by. I've decided to feature @beanz as my first #nameinlights challenge https://steemit.com/nameinlights/@williambanks/beanz-this-is-your-nameinlights
Wow! All I can really say is thanks!
I never realized I was having an impact like that. I just speak my mind and hope I don't get flagged too much for doing it. ;)
When I proposed #nameinlights it was always supposed to be about other people, not me. But I'm flattered to see I have friends and I'm thankful for this.
Speaking of flagging, currently tuck-fheman is having a really good discussion on reputation over here...

Thanks again!
update: speaking of rep and flagging, I'd be thankful if people could toss @bitcointop some upvotes. He has a -2 rep but I'm not seeing a reason why. It's not for plagarism.
Yes, I too really like this initiative by @williambanks. And what I really like about @williambanks is that he really takes the time to read the posts of his followers and contribute very detailed comments to posts.
OMG !! Everytime I read a post, leads to MORE Bad Assery !!! MORE to read, another to follow ... This list of "GOOD" folks just keeps building ...
Ok, NO time to say what i really want !!

Agreed! I love his community-mindedness, and the time he is willing to put into engaging with both people and ideas.
Been following him for a while he's great. Hope this get him more traffic!
It's seems like what should I be..... :)
Great really appreciate it
great initiative!
Nice post @jacor
Nice @jacor
I looked at your profile I can't even see how or where you got downvoted to -2 all of your posts look fine to me and I don't see any downvotes on you since the rep system has been in place.
Do you have any idea where or when that -2 rating happened?@bitcointop
update: I figured out what happened. @dantheman flagged you by accident while flagging a pornographic reply someone else had made to you. So you got the flag instead of the actual target.
I'll second that. Doesn't seem like @bitcointop deserved it or that he was even supposed to be targeted in the first place.
