What is curating and Voting
A reward you receive when you vote on a post. At least 50% of the rewards always go to the author, the other 50% is divided between the author, the curators and the commenters. Curation rewards are paid out 100% in STEEM POWER, which increases the power of your up-votes, so you help the content creators and yourself!
There is a fixed reward pool on Steem.
Users vote on good content (like on Facebook) to distribute rewards from the reward pool to users who post quality content.
Users who distributed the rewards get 50 percent of the rewards they distributed.
The more Steem Power you have, the more rewards you can distribute from the reward pool.
If a post is upvoted 5 minutes (or later) after posting, 100% of the curation reward goes to the curator.
If a post is upvoted the moment of posting, 100% of the curation reward will remain in the rewards pool.
At 1 minute, the curator receives 20%, and 80% remains in the rewards pool.
At 2 minutes, the curator receives 40%, and 60% remains in the rewards pool.
At 3 minutes, the curator receives 60%, and 40% remains in the rewards pool.
At 4 minutes, the curator receives 80%, and 20% remains in the rewards pool.

Communities
In steemit they are alot of communities but the communities i am in already is steamalive, world of football and newcomers community.
I love the world of football community because am a football fan and i really do love anything about football, and if there ever is any community that talk about football, hell i will be there.
Newcomers community is the community all newcomers like myself must belong to, because to be a full member in steemit one has to make all achievement post, 6 of them actually. And this post is to be made in new comers community.
Steemalive is a community i so much love in steemit. their members are hardworking and dedicated to steemit. they are the ones that made me love steemit, infact i was introduced to steemit by a member of steemalive community @whitestallion who help and guided me down to this moment. infact there is no community i'd rather be in.
special thanks to @crptokannon and @focusnow with @whitestallion
