wow. thank you for explaining this. i had no idea about the 200 votes. just a couple of weeks ago, steem dollars appeared and i had no idea how they got there. then went to some steem forum, cannot find it again, asked there if anyone could tell me how that happened and they enlightened me - i am an author just by commenting! that is wonderful!

and just this evening, i have noticed that i have a list of replies to my comments!
and i can vote on them.
even having read the white paper several times and read so many how to steemit posts, i am learning that steemit is DEEEP!
cheers @aggroed
