Well its a selfless thing to do, as it will unlikely gain you much in curation, and perhaps not that much in engagement as these posts are generally swamped with garbage.
I would suggest finding comments you have something to respond with, and replying to these with an upvote - if you are going for engagement.
I do find rewarding a good introduction post not a bad idea, but it could be a poisoned gift! It will increase the believe in the fact that Steemit is indeed a quick rich scheme!
The next 5 to 10 posts, will probably get a payout of around 0, which will crush the motivation and lots of them then decide to leave the steem blockchain!
What do you think of the idea that in the coming week I upvote 70 steemonians that post with the tag introduceyourself?
I know this looks a bit like A strange question. But I figured it might be a good thing to welcome new users in such a way.

You might be right about the fact that they are in general pretty uninteresting to read. Cause I already read a few....
I was trying to come up with some kind of idea to support and encourage new users. As lots of them seem to quit Steemit very quickly.
I think I have to think a bit longer about such an idea. Also because there are already done bots doing a similar thing.

Then I should also write some kind of encouraging comment. In which I explain they need to have some patience.
Btw, did you read all comments on Ashers post?
Nope, not yet. Should I? Running a little bit out of time!
No, I was just wondering how you found this comment?
Perhaps you read all my comments?
