RE: So You Just Earned Your First Steem Dollars... Now What?
Note that when he says "voting power" what he's referring to is your upvote power. The more steem power you have, the more your upvote is worth.
Downvotes too! It's nice to be able to stamp out trolls with a single stroke :)
I have seen @berniesanders stomp out a 100 upvotes in one go. ;)
lol That's so epic.
@vapekings14 - That would definitely be unfortunate for those involved, but we can't prevent people from being children in here and ruining their own experience and investment. It seems this place may take a bit of a transition period for people to shed the old mentality of the Fisher Price brand networks such as Reddit or Facebook. I say Fisher Price because those places are toys for children to play with. Now that this is here, we can say a place like Steemit is where the adults go. And you can be an adult (in the mind) at any age you choose. This just ain't the place to pitch fits and throw flame wars. People will figure that out on their own.
still we have to be careful if some people have personal problems with each other they shouldn't take it out on steemit down voting each other.
#bots auto flagging you? Well voting power is calculated by SteemPower / votes per day and flags count as votes, SteemPower is non transferable. This means if you comment every 20 seconds which is perfectly within steemit rules all that steempower evil whales put on those attack bots is quickly becoming worthless, I know the same bots are flagging all of us minnows so if you are being auto flagged pick a thread and reply every 20 seconds for a few days use your own thread if you dont want to spam anyone. I picked @neoxian and @pfunk to spam because they were frivolously flagging me even before the bots, you could even automate your account to do it. bots fighting bots! If we all fight back against the evil auto flag bots not only will we win but our SteemPower will have effectively more power than before. I love Steemit. I hate whomever sicked their downvote bots on me.
Point taken!!
Dunno why @soupper1 didn't like this, but it's not spam, so I gave it a 10% upvote to get you back out of the red. :)
Thank you for the upvote, I'm being stalked by @soupper1!!!
voting power is actually a measure of your votes. If you vote too frequently the percentage will go down and which mean your next votes will be worth less then before. Overtime if you wait by not voting the voting power will go back up.
That is true, but my statement is correct nevertheless. I figured I'd not overload the new folks with the details just yet. :)
An excellent point, technically "voting power" is something else.
I think what @piedpiper was referring to is voting influence based on Steem Power. Colloquially, "voting power" makes sense. I believe technically it's called "Round Shares".
As means throwing a lot?
Do upvoting give the voter any steem power or lose any steem power? Or does it only affect the post?
nice info..thanks mate
