Ah... I didn't know about the one-word answers being considered spam. It does make sense though; it adds nothing to the conversation but it does let the person know you've read and appreciated them in a non-financial way :D

When you're new here, your votes are 100% all the time. Until you get your slider, it seems appropriate to thank the person for commenting rather than wasting your 100% vote to effectively give a thumbs up (FB style).

What do you think about including some sort of instructions for the newbies when they first join steemit? I've been here a month and this is the first time I've heard of this. By accident, just by roaming around.

Anyway, noted. I'll pass the word around.

Cheers
