sorry I if wasn't clear
I wasn't saying that people who comment need to upvote, I was being a wiseass about SPAMMERS who don't even upstate ;>
I think that commenting to earn rewards, but more importantly, to build your relationships on Steemit, is a great way to engage with the community
so feel free to comment w/o voting ;>
Thank you! I will continue on my path. I try for 20 comments a day - lots of effort in that direction and it seems to be working. At least I learn something along the way :)
I started out with posting and commenting; I think that in the long run, it was my commenting that earned follows from other people. When you put in the effort to read and give feedback, it shows!
I definitely get a lot of action from commenting. I try for 20 a day and that leads to all kinds of good results :) One of my comments from yesterday earned $41! I need to research how that miracle happened so I can repeat it.
