After starting my day as I regularly do, by reading many posts and making what I think are meaningful comments, I had just finished replying to a post by @goldendawn, and was returning to the feed to see what else might interest me. That was when I ran into this contest. (blocktraders contest) I feel that with the diligent manner at which I have conducted my activity on Steemit, I am at the very least worthy of a look see.

Hear is the post by @goldendawn with my reply.

Most times I enjoying commenting as much as posting. More often than not, if the comments I reply with include valuable info, I will get a response. That doesn't happen with the content that I have posted in the past.
Eight days ago I received a badge from the steemitboard for making 600 comments, with my new goal being 700.

Three days ago I received a badge from the steemitboard for receiving 3000 up-votes, next goal 4000.
If you were to take a look at my comments you would realize that many of my replies have as much effort invested as my posts.
Some recent feedback that I got from @broncnutz for a reply to this post,

For me, this is what it is all about.

This is an awesome comment. Thank you so much for taking the time. I am not sure about aliens but I would say I am 100% open to it as being fact. There is lots of evidence that’s for sure.

I always get back to those who leave a comment to me with these words. Always appreciated! Always Humbled!

My reputation score has climbed to 54 and my goal is to reach 70. I know that the only way to get there is to provide the best content possible to my fellow Steemians.

Three days ago I posted content that was involved with #foodfightfriday and almost fell off of my chair when I kicked up the computer the next morning. What a rush it was to get the feedback that this post was creating.

I spent several hours making sure I thanked every single person who had taken the time to read and reply to this post.

The whole time I was on cloud nine.

And guess what, it was even up-voted by curie and some other rather big fish.

I just checked the comments I made last week and they total 83 in a seven day period.

I know that through this entire post, I have been blowing my own horn.

I wouldn't have done so if I felt my work was not worthy of your time.

thanks! thebigsweed.

You can teach us old dogs new tricks can't ya?

I also think when I am replying that the thought and time and content could probably justify a post on its own. It is the engagement and content you add in comments that make blogs into discussions. Good for everybody.

Awesome stuff.

Have you entered this contest, if so good luck, if not, the content you provide too all of us is just what they are looking for.

It may take a couple of lessons, but we get it sooner or later.

Haven't yet. I usually have contests or dapps come back at me a couple times from different folks here before they catch my attention. I may have to look into it though. Until then, Good luck!

The curie trail is intense, especially all of the comments that require responses. The woes of hitting a curie trail. Very well deserved @thebigsweed. That was one the 2nd of many more to come :)

howdy sir bigsweed! another fine job, good luck with the contest, many people entering this one.

With what you bring to the table you should get involved.

yes sir bigsweed I know what you mean but I looked at it and just can't do it, at least not this time around, perhaps in the future I won't be of the same mindset. But I salute those of you who are doing it!
