Upvote = Negative Curation? - Question For the Community

in #curation • 7 years ago

🤔

Hey guys 👋 Sorry for the short post.

I have a question though that I can't seem to find an answer to.

I was hoping to upvote a post I found, and the curation reward is -$1.96?

What would cause such a huge negative curation from an upvote?

Regular content will resume in a day or two. This weekend has been extremely hectic for me, I wil provide updates soon.

Looks like I won't be able to do the @freewritehouse March madness every day, my time is in such short supply - especially this weekend.

I hope to have chapter 2 up hopefully in a day or two.

Thanks everyone, I hope you can help me figure this out.

Who is awesome?

You. You're awesome.

Thanks again.

Did you ever really figure this out?

What was the post's pending payout?

It might just be a calculation glitch in your front-end. I don't believe a curation reward would ever go into the negative with how the blockchain is set up.

I didn't realize it but the post is a year old from an account with one upload and only 5 SP. I have no idea how my friend found it and resteemed it
Reckon that might have something to do with it?

Seems unlikely, but perhaps it had something to do with it.

Hmmm, I never saw that before. When I look at the post it shows zero. Maybe it was flagged and just showing how negative that flag was. IE post was .03 cents and someone flagged it -1.75 or whatever so that if someone else upvoted it afterward they would still be at zero. Just a guess
