RE: 6 reasons why you should power up

Hi @juanmolina,
I love the way you ask questions in your comments, this really favourises interaction and exchange of comments !
Would it be beneficial for a newbie to own a lot of SP?
I believe that every newbie should get some SP to really profit from the platform. Without SP, they don't have the necessary RC to interact as much as they want. In addition because of their lack of Voting power they hardly get any attention to their posts. So they can't post and they won't get upvotes -> That is an explanation why so many people quit steem soon after having started.
When we encourage people to join steem, we should also tell them to invest at least 100 SP to have a nice experience.
Best regards,
Achim
I learned from my mentor @crypto.piotr the importance of comments.
This is true, I agree. With 100 SP it is possible to interact and publish fairly.
I think that a rookie user with a large SP, suppose 100K, would be in a condition similar to Peter Parker's when he discovered his powers. Then we would have to advise him:
"Great power leads to Great Responsibility."
That is really well said ;-)
I'd add to this that if a newbie has more SP, he won't find himself as isolated as he will be if he keeps thinking "posting/looting" because there's nothing that drives people away more than plunderer.
A post's quality is a very subjective thing. You may think you've done the perfect post on pots and flower, but if your reader is a gamer who's the best definition of a flower is a collectible and definition of a pot is an inventory upgrade, then the quality of your post in his eyes will be definitely... low.
However, if you interact by upvoting his posts/commenting & bringing value to his own gaming posts, chances are he will take an interest in you despite the gaps.
That wouldn't happen with someone who has a low-end value as a viewer. For people to look at off-topic posts, it really has to bring them something important.
