Thanks for this valuable comment, @rocking-dave. That's exactly what I meant when talking about providing a helping hand to new users. steemit is really complex compared to other social networks, there is no doubt about that. Some of us are here since 9-10 months, and it's obvious that we perfectly know what we are talking about. But to somebody who is new, these things must sound extraordinarily strange.
Have you signed up to steemit.chat already? There are a lot of helpful communities where you can address questions of all type.
