Thanks so much for your quick reply. A suggestion for you and steam-ocean. Instead of just showing how up vetoing in a particular way helps, show also how commenting and up voting comments helps the post and the voter commenters. From what I can tell comments help reputation and curation. Just a thought.
P.S That source for witnesses is awesome thanks!
You are welcome. It is possible to calculate stats that show how often a user comments on their own posts and how quickly they reply etc.
The vote logs that appear on steem ocean currently do include votes made on comments as well as on posts.
I'll bare that general area in mind, yes.
Personally I will always try to reply to comments on my post and up vote those comments. One of the problems I notice is that people are not aware that comments count as a post, but take less time then creating a blog. Don't know what it means for steemians though. LOL
