RE: Turned 60, but that's not the reason I am celebrating! Let's welcome the first University to join steemit !

in #steemit6 years ago

haha, thank you for making me smile on a difficult day!!!

Actually I was not referring to my age, but to my steemit reputation.

On steemit, every new users come with a reputation (by default 25) which can increase based on the upvotes by members that have a higher reputation. This number could also decrease if the user gets flagged / downvoted. This number appears next to your name (for instance your reputation now is 28) and it will grow in time. It will be a number you will be so anxious to see grow :)

If you would like to know more about it, I have found this post by @ilyastarar to be accurate and informative here

Again, thanks for dropping by and commenting!

Haha! Thanks for the clarification and the guide for new members that's really helpful. I think I should have worded it differently but what I meant is that gaining another reputation point feels like aging one year. I think I have gained 3 or 4 points and it felt like ages. But in the end, reputation doesn't matter to me, all that matters is quality content and having a good time.
