When I vote on posts usually the amount goes up, sometimes it stays the same, but occasionally it goes down.
I'm confused!
I upvoted this post today:
https://steemit.com/steemit/@dantheman/notice-to-bot-spammers#@alkemix/re-dantheman-notice-to-bot-spammers-20160729t232718502z
And watched the rewards go from $5,434.79 down to 5,306.86!
I felt really bad for the blogger!!!
Makes me not want to vote, but that's supposed to be integral to the action here.
And I've tried removing my votes when this has happened and the amounts have only gone back up in cents (if at all) instead of restoring what was lost.
I want to curate and encourage creativity but don't want to make mistakes that interfere with others' progress.
I'm struggling to understand how the upvoting system works.
As I see Steemit.com it is a great place and I see a great future.
Can anyone help me understand how this upvoting thing works so I don't make bloggers lose money??? Please???
Many thanks for any useful information !!!!
