Thanks for the positive response. I too have wanted to reward commenters, but that can take 25% of my vote now. I have been voting up their posts in some cases and I can also award !BEER tokens. I do not self vote or buy votes apart from where I can use the various tokens to do that. I do not want to spend Steem if I can avoid it.

We have seen that the way we were going was not making Steem grow, but perhaps #NewSteem can be better. The curation by big accounts is helping many. I am really not that fussed about what I make, but I saw from the start the potential to help others and I would hate to see that potential wasted.
