RE: "Dear Dawne" Live Today! - Get A "Pro" To Check Out Your Blog (the line starts forming..3..2..1..NOW)
Good morning!
I scrolled through your page, comments, replies and posts for a minute and I do see some UPvotes coming in sporadically through your comments but most have replies with many having no UPvotes. So, you are interacting with people and they are responding; so no problem there. It just seems as though the UPvotes are slow coming in for you... for now.
I am by no means an expert with SP, voting power and how the breakdown of the payouts happen. I have read many posts explaining the payout amounts and (author/curator) rewards and still have a difficult time understanding all the ins-and-outs.
I learned early on NOT to pay attention to my wallet; as it will become addictive and overwhelming- as I think about the posts, comments and payouts versus the dollar amounts and SP building up in my wallet.
I really wish I could help more with the understanding. Maybe this article can help more. Midway down in the reward pool distribution section is explained and gives an example; including how it has to do with who votes before or after you.
Thank you @goldendawne for taking the time to go through my page and give me your thoughts. It's funny what you said about:
When I was newer, you're right, I WAS obsessive about it. Lol. But, at some point, I got so busy with my friends that I started to forget about it, and that's when it got fun!
I know you hear it so often how thankful we are off your help, but I hope you realize how much it's truly meant. It's just amazing to see all these people here, who give more than they take.
You're very welcome! I enjoy sharing what I have learned so far. Having someone to bounce ideas_ off of can really help motivate too. If you get confused, then frustration looms.
Agree on the bounce ideas thing. My natural tendency is to isolate. I think I'm bothering others if I ask questions. But, more often than not, people enjoy helping others. It's still hard for me sometimes though to put myself out there.
Oh please.. never hesitate. I am more than thrilled to be able to share my knowledge with you all.
I am the queen of being a hermit but steemit has definitely given me more of a social game. I can flutter in and out, be social and make friends. You'll be amazed once you get right in there and get you hands dirty.
