Great advice @steevc, this should help out a lot of people.

I bet I still get votes from people who do nothing else and have hardly any SP. They probably won't even read this, but if I help someone I'm happy

these r good tips! nice post !

Good advice :)

very honest statement at the end and so true! THX for the good tips especially for the newbies!

Cheers. I'm getting a lot of votes from people with accounts like this. Just voting will not get them anywhere.

You're right but there are good tips for making the best out of your votes:

Check em out!!

I was aware of most of that. I didn't start making anything from curation until I had over 100SP. You have to be very lucky to get anything with just 10SP. Now I make a few cents each day, but I'm not always hunting for posts that could do well. I support anything good I see. I just got the voting slider, but I'll probably leave it on 100% as my votes don't give people much

I spend way more time reading, commenting, and upvoting than I do on writing my own posts. I need to step that up! Thanks for the kick!

Commenting is still valuable. Keep it up

It's the same for me, voting for the good stuff and voting on comments often. But where did you get the voting slider?

@bullionstackers @pery I assume you mean 56 reputation, but I think it is based on SP. I may be wrong :)

I just got it when I passed around 400SP. I think people got it earlier before. It may depend on the price of Steem.

Level 56 @pery

thx @steevc - that's the reason I haven't seen the slider yet... lol

@bullionstackers - what does it mean "Level 56" ?

As an example of newly birthed zooplankton, thank you.
Can anyone tell me what the error message "TypeError: Cannot read property 'get' of undefined" is caused by?

Welcome to Steemit. Looks like you made a good start.

No idea, but it's been reported by someone else. They need to deal with the obscure errors that can pop up. The site is still in beta, so we have to expect some glitches.

For someone who just joined today, this is very timely and useful advice. The thing that I like about steem so far is that the community adds value. steem seems to be more than reposted memes, it has valuable individual content that is being added and updated all the time.
thanks for the advice.

Cool. It was aimed at people who just seem to be voting when it will do them no good. Build some reputation and Steem Power by commenting. I see you already gained some reputation. That's a great start. Good luck

I really don't care if I get something or not. I upvote posts I really like and comment if I have something to say but can't do it here as much as I want. Flagging is not on my agenda. 😊

Being social is what it's about. I don't think Steemit is the best place to just try and make money. That may happen if people like what you do. I'm trying to guide people on how I think it works.

True and wise words .

Cheers. It's not getting through to some people

Also Don't play unnecessary DownVotes!!!

I don't flag much stuff. My vote won't make much difference and there can be a danger of retaliation. I concentrate on the positive :)

Didn't say about you.
Just adding some thought.
Recently, I upvoted someone and make a comment
The author Downvoted me. What a Loser!
Newbie playing with Downvote.
If a user generally don't upvotes other, they ain't get any Pronto. I am checking every one now.
Trying to help them , I end up getting kick in the butt.

There are some idiots on here. I try to keep things friendly. I did have someone with a load of SP vote me down, but he was doing that to lots of people. Not seen him recently. Of course it's good that new people are voting, but I was trying to show them that they need to do other things too. Ideally I'd like to see Steemit detect such behaviour and offer tips to help people get into it.
