Greetings, @JustinParke here with an ASEAN Hive Community update, so please read this post so you don't miss out any developments.
Β Β Β I don't even know where to begin because there is so much I've been wanting to change in the ASEAN Hive Community for a long time. I have tried to list everything below that has been changed, along with new rules, developments, news, and any other relevant stuff I could think of. My time for Hive is becoming more restricted these days, so I need to come up with time-efficient strategies to manage the community as well as increase the profitability of this job, and all this will preserve ASEAN Hive's future and sustainability for/when/if the day comes that someone else will keep this project alive.
Β Β Β There will be more changes to come than I have listed in this post alone, but all the changes I will be making in the next several weeks will serve to better the ASEAN Hive community, increase growth, engagement, profitability, and sustainability. At some point I would like to revamp the curation posts and give the logo and community a facelift, but slow and steady is the way to go. In the next few days I intend also to create new ASEAN Hive custom footers for new VIPs and those who have forgotten to claim theirs.
Β Β Β In this post there is also the first batch of HBD Savings dispensed to VIPs, earned via the @asean.hive HBD Savings account. That is further down the post, so for now please read below for updates to the community management and rules.
Β Β Β Before I had previously used a maximum possible upvote value according to post effort, size, engagement levels, delegation size, and a few other factors, but this is difficult to control our voting mana because the amount and frequency of posts varies from day to day.
Β Β Β From now on there will be no maximum upvote potential, but vote size will still be determined by effort, size, quality, author engagement levels, and post relevance.
Β Β Β Reblogging by the @asean.hive curation account will now occur less frequently, reserved only for posts of notable quality and whose authors are engaged in the community. This will increase the likelihood of bigger upvotes from beyond ASEAN Hive due to a smaller batch of posts featured on the @asean.hive blog feed each day.
Β Β Β In order to increase engagement within the ASEAN Hive Community, now all ASEAN Hive VIPs' commenters will receive upvotes instead of only the post author's replies and ASEAN VIP commenters receiving upvotes. The post author's replies will no longer receive upvotes because this HP will now be devoted towards rewarding only the post commenters. This will enable non-delegators to be eligible for engagement upvotes, thus increasing the likelihood of engagement from beyond ASEAN Hive Community borders.
Β Β Β One thing I have been trying to do is increase the profitability, and thus sustainability of ASEAN Hive, mostly because I'd like this community to live even if some day I can't continue running it. In order for anyone to want to take on this job that often requires 8 hours of work each day, it will have to earn more than the roughly $250+ USD of monthly curation rewards that have so far been reinvested in the community.
Β Β Β I think someone would potentially do this job for $300 to $400 USD a month, so I have decided to set a 1% @asean.hive beneficiary for all posts published in ASEAN Hive. These extra funds will be used to continue building the community in various ways.
Β Β Β I have decided to offer monthly HBD Savings rewards for select VIP tiers, the HBD coming from monthly interest earned via the community savings account. For more details keep on scrolling.....
Β Β Β I have noticed that often times posts in the community go without a single comment, so I made an update to the rules that will require all posters to comment on the post directly below theirs in the community timeline
Β Β Β The @asean.hive curation account is growing and growing, and although I have gone through some financially hard times in life since the beginning of this community, I have managed to keep 99%+ of the earnings within the account in one form or another. My main reason in doing this was I had created some short term goals for our community such as achieving 10,000 HP in the @asean.hive account, reaching 100,000 HP in delegations not from my family members, and also loading up an HBD Savings account with HBD purchased from powering down all HP over 10,000.
Β Β Β The purpose of building up an HBD Savings account was to create more sustainability by diversifying community funds as well as to provide a new way for VIP delegators to earn some guaranteed monthly rewards that aren't part of the various raffles. I slowly built up the account to over $1,000 HBD before deciding to use the monthly interest as rewards, and from now on the monthly HBD earnings will increase, hopefully attaining $100 HBD in interest each month to dispense. October is the first month of this new rewards system, so please bear with me because there will likely be some kinks and errors until I get everything dialed in.
Β Β Β The monthly HBD Savings rewards are limited to π DIAMOND, πΏ PLATINUM, & π GOLD VIP delegators. The SILVER and BRONZE VIPs have a total stake that currently is too small for any significant HBD Savings rewards. I also want to provide more perks for our bigger delegators because they provide us with the voting power that makes this community thrive, so I hope this new rewards system will foster bigger delegations and help the community grow.
Β Β Β Please bear with me as this is the first post of what I aim to be a monthly event, and surely it will become more organized and accessible with time. This is not a raffle, all delegators 500+ HP will receive monthly HBD Savings rewards according to delegation size.

Β Β Β Delegators are valued members of our community, so each @asean.hive curation post (other than the main weekly delegator raffle post) features a mini πββdelegator raffle in the footer, with the winner receiving 15% post beneficiary.
This new set of rules will encourage every fellow to engage and delegate more and help the community grow. I am a proud member of the @asean.hive community. This is not just a community but a family to everyone because of your unwavering and tremendous support. I enjoy every contest that you hold which I also participated in if my schedule at work allows me to pen my thoughts. Thank you so much @justinparke, you are not just a friend but I look up to you as an exemplary mentor as well. God bless you, your family and the community as well. Take care. π
Such kind words, a reminder of why I just can't stop ASEAN Hive. This community means so much to me because of members like you, and I've enjoyed growing our HP and HBD Savings while imagining the possibilities of what we can do with a big collective fund.
No doubt this is a great idea and will be good for the community, I really appreciate your thoughts. You are very sincere and dedicated to the community to begin with. The greatest asset of this community is your sincerity and future plans. I welcome the new rules and declare that I will stick with the new rules. Many thanks to you and your sincere efforts.
Thanks for taking the time to read this and stay updated. You're such a big part of ASEAN Hive's success, and I enjoy learning more about your country through your blog, and of course your food too because we both have similar taste buds.
What a great initiative for the communityβs sustainability. Since I joined Hive, it has been one of my favorite communities. Many thanks for your support to the community and all Hivers my dear friend. Appreciate your effort as always. Blessings to you!
I am glad to hear that, it's a great motivator. You're a joy to have in our community, your engagement is top-notch and very genuine, and of course your posts are well-written, good photography, formatting, etc., it's clear you put big efforts into it.
Awww, thank you so much for your heartwarming remarks, but this is just me. More power and blessings to Asean Hive! Best regards.

Asian Hive is one of the best communities on Hive Blockchain, which is why I continue to promote it to newcomers. Thank you for providing the fresh information updates of this community. I believe that this is for the betterment of all Asean Hivers.
I am honored, I do like to think we are a very helpful and friendly bunch of Hivers. I aim to see the continued growth of this project, all of us together building something on Hive to call our own.
This is so great initiative and I am grateful for the opportunity that I am here with you in this commmunity. Thank you so much @asean.hive admin and community. You are starting building an empires here from small things.
Haha, yes you're right. You've been in ASEAN Hive since the early days, and I am so surprised to see where we are now, always among the top-ranked communities.
When I see you as admin and I am belong to Asean country, I never doubdt to fly with the flocks. Congratulations!
Awesome move Justin! I hope Aseanhive VIPs will be more encouraged to delegate and enhlgane in the community. You have grown the community successfully! Awesome work you did and your family
Thank you so much, I am hoping for the same. With double the HP we could really have a substantial upvote.
Looking forward to delegate more. The changes and rules are one way to improve the community. Keep up the good work and God Bless to the ASEANHIVE Community Admins. ππ
I do hope so, thanks my friend for believing in ASEAN Hive.
Your welcome... I just added more HP to my delegation... Thank you always for the support...ππ€

Thank you for the good things for the members of the community. I' ll encourage you and your family. Even though I don't comment often. Have a great day my friend. π
Thank you, no problem my friend. I understand you have a busy life, and I hope now that I will place more focus on rewarding commenters, this will in turn increase overall engagement.
This is a very big help for our community. There are lots of changing rules and also added rules but all of this is very helpful to us here.
Thank you for notifying us my friend.
I hope it all serves to grow the community and make things more sustainable.
I think the 1% beneficiary is a good way to grow the HP of the community account. Members should be supportive of this move. Will set this on my next posts.
If posting through PeakD, it should all be automatic. Those posting from other front-ends can avoid this, but I don't aim to be aggressive with this. For those that want to support the community in this way, I am very grateful.
I also noticed the difference between the two frontends. You are also right about it not being a mandatory thing.
Omg! I am so proud of you sir @justinparke βΊοΈβ€οΈ You are doing great things for the community. A lot of updates happening here.
Success for #aseanhive community! πβ€οΈ
Well it's my pleasure with such positive and engaging members like yourself. I hope to see our little community grow and grow.
Wow.. it's great to see how @asean.hive is growing.. thank you for introducing new perks.. which is greatly appreciated by all members.. ππ
I guess time will tell, but I hope that this all provides more longterm growth and value for us all. You're a big part of ASEAN Hive bro.
Yea.. great to see this community growing so much.. you are a great leader.. working so hard to make sure this community grows..
More power to this community! Thank you for providing a new set of rules. These are very easy to follow. Cheers to Asean Hivers! π€π€
I hope so, thank you. The hardest part will be reminding everyone to comment on the post below theirs.
As a new member of this community, thanks for the update. Itβs just now i got to read since no internet for almost 2 weeks.
Thanks for staying updated, we sometimes have internet reliability issues here too, although it's never been more than three days.
Thank you Asian Hive community for the information about rewards. Have a good dayπππ
My pleasure, I never want to make changes without informing everyone,
Thank youπππ
You are doing a lot for the community, sir. Thank you sir for sharing the information. Have a nice day.
It is all my pleasure, you ASEAN Hivers make the job worthwhile.

That's some serious math you did there bro. I'm impressed!
I realize it's not much yet. but it's growing quickly. By my calculations, with your roughly 30,000 HP delegation, if you used it yourself for curation purposes, you could earn $80 per month. At $5.17, I'm not quite there yet in terms of competing with curation APR, but the savings are growing quickly, so in a few months I expect the rewards to be much bigger. Thanks for being a huge part of ASEAN Hive.
