The site shows how much the post is worth, not how much the author gets. The value of the post is split between the author and the voters. It's a fair. If no one voted then the post would be worth nothing. If no one posted, there wouldn't be anything to vote on.
Read the rules before getting all upset.
Where i'm upset ? Could you pinpoint me to the part where i seem upset ?

I'm sorry but i think we don't understand english the same way, that was a very polite way to say things. If i was upset i would just say "i just got scammed by this fucking site".
In my post i'm talking about fairness, it doesn't matter if i'm wrong or not, what matter here is, it was a polite post.
