RE: Hey Steemains - Let's start a #discussion!
Great idea! I think great discussions are one of the key things I've enjoyed about this place the most. I've never thought to use the discussion tag, but I'll start. Some posts I've enjoyed most have 100+ comments and many of them are full blog posts as well. I like zeroing in on our niche.
For me, posting and discussing topics on Steemit compared to other sites is like playing Texas Holdem with fake money vs. real money. When there's real value on the table, the game is a lot more fun.
The poker analogy is excellent. Sometimes I'll be posting a comment, and I go in, just get real interested in the topic and write a whole big thing. And then if I see a decent upvote, even $1, I'm like - YEA, I DID IT! It feels a lot like winning a big pot in hold'em.
