@smooth please also take a look at such initiatives by @threespeak platform. I think they reward us for that work we do to make people join steem and to promote : Get upto $3 upvote for a comment ! and $24 upvotes to give

I think they don't upvote those initiatives to make us do our best to promote that outside steem, not in it. Because the main goal of that is to onboard steemians. So, they may reward other videos instead.

In the plaform those who are in the top are allowed to upvote with @threespeak stake and we do our best to onboard people from outside steem or to promote it. In fact we can use those votes just for our commenters, but I decided to use that every month to promote steem and to onboard new people.

This month I voted twice, because they have an update and I have better score that's why the date of upvoting changes to me. So, I guess I will be able to vote after a month from now.

Also, we pay fee to the platform every single month and that's about 30 steem now.

So, all the rewards I'm getting are deserved by hard work and I'm not doing anything bad. I'm positive about steem and excited about it and promoting it every single day for two years and half. I hope you will consider that.
