> without anyone interacting on our Posts with some quality comments it would be quite boring and useless to write about anything at all.

Totally agree, you won't know how happy I am when someone who actually read my posts discuss something in them with me.

> ...of us should really consider to use more and more of the available Voting Power to upvote quality comments...

Glad I'm one of the people who upvote comments when I see them in my posts (or in others)... 

Too bad since my vote slider didn't unlock yet, I can only do about 10 upvotes each day and 2 of them always received for my posts. (and my vote isn't strong... only $0.01+)

New to steemit, and here is my first ever comment. Hoping to improve quality in this platform. Kudos to ur contribution

I feel even just a 1% upvote would work and be nice for the person. At least some recognition.

Agree! I only upvote for quality posts... however I always mingle or interact with authors all the time...

I really liked this post.  I really like when good comments get voted because it moves them to the top.  I do not like having to search for the good comments surrounded by spam.

Good comments and discussions on posts are just as valuable as the content itself. How many times have you scrolled past an article to read the comments? It's also great because when you upvote a quality comment it gets bumped to the top of the comments, you literally have the power to control the order in which your viewers also view comments. Priceless!

Sometime I just gone through people posts just to see any related ideas to improve on what im in.. as well as to share something and get some ideas on how to do stuffs the way they did it...and loves to get interact with people around the glove

Errr...Can I get that ADSactly on my page? hahaha

Curation rewards on comment upvoting is pretty low since genetally posts attract more upvotes than comments. But, it's still worth encouraging engagement via the comments by upvoting them. For minnows, a well thought out comment is worth more than a penny upvote on a post.

i definitely agree with this , we deserve to upvote quality comment that people read on our post as a sign of appreciation and care hence it shows interest and effort  with regards to the post :) 

very valuable post you've got here @steembusiness:)

Absolutely. If it's a good, well thought out comment. And maybe occasionally when it strokes your ego just right.
There are some awesome posts on SteemIt. Well thought out, well written, and even well researched posts. (of course junk and spam too) But the most fun I've had is in the comments. You can have really awesome conversations that occasionally go off in another direction. Upvotes encourage this.

I comment on people's post all the time just because I know they'll upvote. Might be a little "greedy", but it gets my name out there and is a way I can almost guarantee rewards for the time I put into steemit.

Why I almost always, as you pointed out, upvote as many comments on my post as I can unless I'm trying to rebuild my steempower.

I only upvote on the things I find interesting and most of the times they're the comments below the posts :-)

If you look at my blog, I do comment on posts that I upvoted and hope to see reply then I know this person has also read my comment. Whether it is an encouragement or a share experience comment, it feels good if someone reply me. But unfortunately most do not reply or they have no time to go back to see the comments. I tried to go and review my blog to see if someone has commented but that is if I have the time. 
Looking forward to more interaction from the community.
@jackpot

Yep sometimes someone is just commenting to be followed back but men non sense or it does make sense is it our only purpose is to get some UPVOTE & COMMENT? 😊 Thoughts? 😊

Well i thought that was what the smart people had been doing from day 1 
:  ) but yes you are right many people have absolutely no appreciation of the value that comments lend to their blog posts.
Its great that you have put it out there for discussion.

Yes upvoting comments is very good way to encourage people to interact with your contents.I agree it. Talking about myself I really give a good time to read let leave my view on any post where author himself is taking part on discussion and upvoting others time and effort too.
But I don't like someones 2 words comment on top of the post and other good comments below...

Comments are one of the biggest pluses of a social network and on Steemit we can reward others for contributing to our work in that way

I'm very new to the steemit community, however I have already realized how much more important comments are here than on other social media platforms. Comments here are what make the community happen, as opposed to the relations between people that already know each other. However, steemit has relatively fewer users than other platforms, therefore it is much more important that you write comments, because there is a much smaller chance someone has posted something with a similar opinion. What do you think will change, when more and more people join steemit, and the community will become enormous?

I agree on that but is very difficult to capture attention in a comment. Instead in a post you can manage your own subject but however I pay attention to good comments and you can notice when the person really enjoyed and understands your post.
Good post btw no need for an up vote just giving my personal opinion.

Nice post

Maximum attention is captured by posts. Yes you can also upvote quality comments. It is beauty of steemit.

I unfortuneately haven't had much luck receiving votes or rewards on comments. I've posted some good quality ones too. I guess that's just part of the game though. Sigh.

But, it would be nice to see more of this! Nice post @steeembusiness!
