August has closed itself upon us, welcoming the new month of September. We are continuing our program of rewarding our members and participants as outlined here. September 5th was the day that these and other monthly rewards have been sent out. Rewards for posts have already been sent out throughout the duration of the month.

We’ve optimized our count of comments, threads, and posts, thanks to the diligent work of @crazyphantombr. We’re organizing our data in a clearer way so that everyone can transparently see how we rewarded our wonderful community members and participants. We’ve also implemented some changes as how to we reward comments and Threads. Repetitive comments and Threads receive now very limited rewards (1 HSBI maximum if only repetitive content is posted in a non-spam manner).

We managed to get a little bit of info on referrals to the community this time – if you referred anyone to this community, or were referred by someone, please let me know asap!

Total = 701 HSBI

Referrals to the community based on members who joined

@crazyphantombr with 4 referrals = 8 HSBI
@khantaimur with 1 referral = 2 HSBI

This was one of our poorer months in terms of listing referrals (we may have had more which nobody mentioned), so I think we can do far better in the future! Let’s keep up the work and reap those juicy HSBI rewards.

Total = 10 HSBI

Last, but not least, all inaugural members who joined as of March 1st, 2024 were each awarded 1 HSBI

Total = 518 HSBI

GRAND TOTAL = 1669 HSBI + 6.907 HBD + 50 LP + 3000 CCD

Screenshots of HSBI Rewards

This time, we used @fc-curation to distribute rewards. We will rotate between using this account and other community accounts. Regardless, all rewards end up pooled within the community; using other community accounts is just a way to extend the community’s overall post reach.

Our inaugural member stayed steady at 518 members based on our analysis, including some individuals with more than 1 account. I retested the max memo size, and managed to fit all of these into 4 transactions now – slightly more efficient.

This month, we’ve noticed a big jump in human engagement, in terms of Threads, but a small decrease in comments! It’s incredible to see, but I’d like to see more comments. InLeo’s Community Contest is likely a signficant attributable factor to the Threads Engagement, but we don’t have an external influence boosting our comments. Nevertheless, I always want to find ways to ensure the posts created within FC are getting human engagement and am always open to further suggestions.

Check if You’ve Been Rewarded Correctly!

We’re all human here, and mistakes can happen. That’s why it’s best to double-check that you’ve been rewarded as promised.

NOTE: while HSBI’s website is down, check your total HSBI status using the !sbistatus command in the comments.

The best way to check whether you received the rewards that you were due is to check up HSBI’s website and input your username. You’ll go here, enter your username, then click on transaction history, and finally on sponsored HSBI. Look for hive-140084 under “sponsor.”

If I missed out sending you on any rewards, please let me know promptly so that I can correct it. It takes up to a day to process what I sent out, so if you don’t see it by now, I’ll send whatever you let me know is missing.

Within a few days, we’re going to post our contest for the Post of the Month, Compliment of the Month, and Non-Compliment Comment of the Month. This time, we’ll have 2 winners for our Threads Engagement Contest because we stayed in the top 2 tags with #freecompliments throughout all of August – so a post will be coming up!

Outside of contests/rewards, we’re going to keep improving our mental health initiative and provide further incentives, as well as continue working on the financial aspect of the community. I’m going to continue offering new jobs, incorporating projects/tokens, and optimizing our reward system so that, in the long run, we’ll run as smooth as butter. Exciting stuff, if I may say so myself!

Conclusion

We’ve completed HSBI Unit payouts for August, and continue to build our curation power and other initiatives. The community is growing wonderfully, and the foundations for its functionality have already been set in concrete. Once Hive as a whole has a resurgence of active membership, we’re going to explode in activity, earn lucratively, and most importantly: spread joy far and wide!

---

Don’t forget that you have the option to add hive-140084 as a 5% or 10% beneficiary to your post in order to support the community’s growth. We also give out a few promotions for posts per day!

---

Have I captured all of the rewards correctly? How else can we increase engagement within the community?

I would love to hear any and all opinions about these topics from everyone who is currently a member of FreeCompliments, since you’re all inaugural members! Anyone else who finds this page is also very welcome to voice their opinion. We’re all about free speech, and everyone’s experience has value.

More posts with further ideas incoming soon!

Disclaimer: FreeCompliments (@hive-140084) will be a 20% beneficiary for this post.
