I think we need to find a way to reward these users better. They are a very important part of the community but it seems that they get forgotten a lot of the time. Perhaps some sort of weekly contests or votes with SP prizes/incentives for this type of activity could help.

Sounds great :-)

Thanks. I think people like @sykochica have been saying this kind of thing for a while but I'm not sure if anyone has noticed. If I had the money I would fund it myself - maybe some day:)

It takes a will of some whales to support them! And someone to find them and refer them :-)

Honestly, I don't see why we couldn't pool some Steem together from users who are willing to donate 10-20 steem here and there into a pool for things like this. Much like we see with the crowd funded whale accounts that have gotten build up. It really doesn't take a whole lot for a new person to find it very meaningful (and ideally motivating.)
Little things like suddenly seeing the vote slider bar go a long way for somebody new to the site. (imo)

Sykochica, what's a "vote slider?" (I'm rather new.)
And cryptofiend, I see you are correct in that, "a few Steem is not worth much." - for now.
However, I look at FB < ugh>. Many seemed to have thought < what's his name?> Zuckerberg was such a forward-thinking person to invent FB (or a fool). How long did it take to develop into a company which almost drives Wall Street (with Zuckerberg laughing at the bank)? Several years.
Steemit is truly innovative - forward-thinking - not designed to drive any one person to the prison of Wall Street, but to chauffer many, with the initiative, to true financial freedom (skipping the bank - ha, ha). Whether that design will succeed or fail, time will tell; rarely is a goal a straight-arrow shot, especially one which involves masses of people. The intent and vehicle are present, but it requires the support of the masses.
Sorry, got philosophical; it's one of those nights.

Good point - although I think a lot of people look at the dollar value and right now a few Steem is not worth much. We could try it though.

@sophiamanimen totally no problem...great question.
Once you get to roughly 450 Steem Power, when you go to upvote you will see a slider bar pop up that lets you choose between 1% and 100%. Prior to this, every vote is automatically made at 100%. (We are currently able to make 40 100% votes a day without our vote power percentage falling due to about 1.5% regenerating each hour. This vote power percentage effects how much our upvotes are worth and how much curation reward we can receive on posts. Feel free to ask more on this part if you like.)
The slider bar allows us to break up our 'full votes' into smaller pieces so we can make more of them, for example: I could make 80 50% votes a day without by vote power % falling faster then the regeneration rate. If I cast 80 100% a day, my vote power % would be really low, and I couldn't really add much to the payouts of other authors.
Feel free to ask for any clarification, I didn't want to put to much in there and cause information overload.
