Topcomment weekly curation report (week 29)

News

Topcomment had gained some extra visibility in the past week. I've had a couple of conversations with people both in the comment section as well as in our Discord server that had just recently discovered Topcomment.
It is cool to see the enthusiasm of our supporters. That is why we do it!

This resulted in some new and increased delegations. We now have 23,491 delegated HP from our sponsors and some people that follow our trail.
The HP gives us a $ 0.27 upvote at the moment, but the trail makes it a bit more.
Our goal is still to be able to give an $1 upvote by the end of the year, but we need some more delegations for that.
If you like what we do, please consider delegating to our service.
You can find more information on how to do this further on in this blog.

What is Topcomment?

The Topcomment curation service rewards meaningful and engaging comments on the Hive platform. It is manually curated by @topcomment to prevent abuse.
Comments that show effort, substantively engage with the content are eligible for upvotes. The initiative relies on nominations, where users can mention @topcomment to suggest quality comments.

Read all about it in the following blog (also in Spanish!):
https://peakd.com/comments/@topcomment/topcomment-curation-service-info

Read more about the service and how you can support this project below the report!

Thanks everyone for engaging!

If you want to have a mention when you are on this list or want to be mentioned in every weekly update post from @topcomment, just let me know in the comment section!

Which comments can get upvotes and which don't?

Which comments are eligible for upvotes and which are not?
Not all nominated comments will receive an upvote from Topcomment. While the concept of "quality" is subjective, there are a few key factors I consider when deciding whether to upvote a comment. Additionally, there are certain reasons why even a well-written comment might not be upvoted.

Here are the current guidelines:

Do's

1. Put effort in the comment
Be sure you have put some effort in creating a longer comment. There is no exact number, but a comment that is just a few words long won't get upvoted.

2. React to the content of the blog
The comment should be a thoughtful response to the blog post. It must engage with the content and provide meaningful interaction with the author’s ideas. It shouldn't be a reply telling your own story.

No upvotes for

1. Comments with hate speech, racism, conspiracy theories or other negative reactions
I strive to keep the community positive. Comments promoting hatred, racism, or conspiracy theories will not be upvoted.

2. Comments from users with Hivewatchers downvotes
I do not want to support scammers or fraudulent activity. If a user has been downvoted by Hivewatchers, I will not upvote their comment.

3. AI-generated comments
These comments will not receive upvotes, as they are not authentic human interactions.

4. Comments that already have significant rewards
If a comment has already received a substantial reward, I will skip the upvote. The same applies to comments that are part of the commentrewarder initiative.

5. Giveaways or contest entries
There are some initiatives asking you to submit your entry in the comments. These are excluded from Topcomment upvotes.

6. Commenting on own blogs
Comments from bloggers on their own blog will not be upvoted. It is only natural that you respond to comments on your own blog.

Support Topcomment with Delegations

The more delegations Topcomment gets, the higher the rewards we can give away!
And you profit from the delegation as well since we return 80% of the curation rewards to the delegator.
The rewards are sent in the form of liquid Hive on a daily basis. So, supporting Topcomment with a delegation can be really beneficial for you.

You can use the following tool to delegate an amount of your choice or select one of the predefined amounts below.

https://thecrazygm.com/hivetools/account/delegate/topcomment/100

| 10 HP | 25 HP | 50 HP | 100 HP | 250 HP | 500 HP | 1000 HP | 1500 HP | 2000 HP |

Follow the Curation Trail

If you don't want to delegate you can also choose to following the Topcomment voting trail via Hive.Vote.
This way you do support the project and the commenters, but you'll receive the curation rewards yourself. In Hive.Vote you can configure a percentage for the votes.
https://hive.vote/dash.php?trail=topcomment&i=1

Upvote and Reblog

You could help the @topcomment project by upvoting and reblogging this post. The more people know about this initiative, the more it will stimulate engagement on Hive ❤️
The post rewards will be used to support the project!

Mentions

When you are in the top 20 most upvoted Hivers, you get a mention, If you don't want to be mentioned when you are in that list, just leave me a comment.

If you want to get a mention even though you are not in the list, you can also leave me a comment and I'll add you to the following mention list:
@emeka4, @shine6712

Great, now that I am in the list, the top spot will be mine, soon, one day. :P

I am determined (in a non-megalomaniacal way) to make COMMENTS GRATE AGAIN.

You have been very active and engaging in the comment sections last week. Congrats with your top 20 spot!

0.00000530 BEE

@topcomment and @commentrewarder fill a gap in #hive that receives little to no attention, much to my surprise. It is such a natural thing to do once you come to think about it.

There is though one little thing I see in a different manner. You said you want to get your vote up to $1... well I think that increasingly your reach is more important than increasing your punch. I mean, if you get to around $0.50 but double your number of comments curated, that's a greater victory (as I see things) than delivering $1 votes and keeping roughly the same amount of votes delivered.

0.00218430 BEE

That's a good point. We could also go that way. Or something in between. There do need to be enough quality comments to upvote. And I might need some more curators then too. But we are bot there yet. Your input is appreciated.

0.00000000 BEE

"There do need to be enough quality comments to upvote"

Well, I think that as you increase your reach, quality comments should follow an increasing trend. I'll take myself as a case study: learning about the existence of topcomment made me pivot towards better comments.

Bigger accounts will find the hard (economic) incentive a little lacking, but among the smaller accounts it will be perceived quite favorably and enough so as to make them perceive quality comments as something desirable.

0.00000000 BEE

Thank you so much for rewarding one of my comments!

0.00000243 BEE

You're welcome! Keep on engaging to give us more to upvote!

0.00000187 BEE

If I may ask please, is the nomination allowed for every user?

0.00000000 BEE

Yes! Anyone can nominate a comment. And it doesn't even have to be a comment on your own post.
We do have some rules for upvoting and limited HP, so not every nomination will guaranteed get an upvote.

0.00000000 BEE

Thanks! :)

Thanks for presenting this great good news to all of us.

This great news really increases the engagement of all of us. Also, through Discord, you have been able to get to know the great opinions of everyone from your great skills and collaboration. It is really a great thing which can be a reaction to take the platform to the top. But it is true and eternally true that generating AI is a really serious crime. Which I do not think so at all. Everyone should practice their own skills.

I really like your great information about replay comments and upvotes. And these things should be kept in mind by everyone and increase engagement with everyone.

@topcomment sir I always appreciate your hard work.

Thank you very much for mentioning me here. Of course, we will work harder together to take the platform to the top.

Best regards @mdakash62
