RE: DataViz: Weekend Engagement

Perhaps we could even add a @hivebuzz badge for the post that got the most comments on the blockchain for the day?
This badge already exists and is distributed daily:
You can find it on the Activity tab on your HiveBuzz's board.

Oh cool thanks! I’ve never seen it so it does seem pretty rare. I’ll have to see if I can find it now! Appreciate you getting back to me.
It can be found on the EL post quite often :D
Yeah, they are pretty rare. In more than 4 years on the blockchain, I managed to get only 2 of them, which is not bad tho 😅
BTW, feel free to support my work and vote for me as a witness 😉
It's cool to have these badges and whilst they are not why I do what I do, and certainly not what I devised the #weekend-engagement topic for, they are a good marker. For new people it's good to see a badge or two pop up. I'm hoping to drive the #weekend-engagement onwards, and also to build the Engage the weekend Community a little too...All in the name of engagement, relationship building and in support of newbies and the hive community as a whole.
My concepts have gained a little traction and I hope, with a little more pushing, they'll gain more...I wish I knew exactly what, if any, impact they have had on people out there and their relationship building but I guess I'll never know. Thanks for HiveBuzz by the way. Nice one.
This #weekend-engagement initiative is a nice addition to the weekly author.
Thanks mate, inspires a little bit of engagement which can only be a good thing.
I can't speak for anybody else, but I have several new follows that are engaging routinely and getting to know one another. No doubt in my mind it's working.
Thanks mate, I hope others are doing the same as it's a really decent way to engagers who are obviously getting involved themselves. Less hit and miss than random drop ins to people's blogs which doesn't always work.
I blundered into engagement right away because of my background. I had written for a couple of places that placed really high emphasis on comments. I answered everybody, and people started returning time after time. Everybody was happy.
Yep, it's all pretty simple really, but many don't get it, or ignore the benefit, or are just plain lazy. Still, you can lead a horse to water, you can't make it drink. People have to make their own choices.
I remember when I first started on hive (the other platform); I commented with relevance on many, none of whom I knew, and things went from there. I suppose it helped that a few started following me quickly, and engaged a bit. Some are still around and still engage with me. I simply continued to engage and my account got bigger, slowly. I was happy with that.
Through engagement I met so many interesting people, one a bloke called bigtom as it turns out. It's one of the reasons I am still around as I see value in it, and get enjoyment from it.
I'm publishing my 3rd ever Steem post for a challenge (that the challenger made personal) today. One of the two commentators on that post is lost to the mists of time. One is still part of my circle!
I could really mourn some of the great people that have left. But I'd rather find new sources. Like the kp brothers. Both of you make me think all the time.
I had a sort of crosswise discussion with my buddy yesterday that started with your WWI rifle and bayonet. I allowed to him that I wasn't very fond of bayonets or trenches (like I said to you). We went on to discuss why the fuckhead powers that be in WWI didn't learn the lessons from our Civil War about fixed lines.
He had a great line from a movie "part of it is from the English Inherent Love of Slaughter."
But it came from you, got twisted around and now goes back. That's what it's all about.
That's what engagement is all about...Conversation, ideas, tangents, more conversation and tangents...All done with respect and in a friendly manner. Beats the bickering and slagging people do on Facebook.
You still posting there? I abandoned it as the shit place it truly is.
Nope. I am SO gone from there. Just the third post I published. PeakD actually makes it look like a Hive post!
Ah ok, yeah I wouldn't have thought you'd be around there.
