The comment tips are one of the most equitable features of HIVE. Unfortunately, it is hard for newbies to acquire the minimum 20 PIZZA. There are stupid bid bots that auto outbid users on HIVE-Engine.

But I do love the comment tips as the tips reward people for their interaction.

I guess it is possible for voting blocks and autoposts to get the rewards. So they aren't perfect.

Apparently 1500 PIZZA isn't enough to trigger the tip.

HE explorer shows that I received one tip that matches the time of the @yintercept reply. But there isn't one matching your reply.

One thing I dislike about HIVE is that the rules are often opaque.

The burning question is: why didn't the system give the tip?

Is there a limit to the tips a post can receive? Does the tip command have to be on the last line? Are you trapped in some sort of spaminator hell where the system won't deliver your tips because you violated spaminator's sensibilities in some past post. Is it because the tip command has to be capitalized?

I can't give you a PIZZA because I burned all of my PIZZA yesterday. I will try giving a HiveBit. The HBIT rewards are also strange. As I recall, one doesn't have to hold HBIT. One is not allowed to stack HBIT with other comment commands. It is possible that only the root author of a post can give HBIT. I will give it a try.
